Feel The Zeal...

FEEL THE ZEAL…The coming of Christ signaled the beginning of grand plan. In fact this grand plan has mushroomed into the largest single initiative on our planet and has only increased in momentum with time. It’s the redemption mission of God.
“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.”
~Isaiah 9:6-7
Notice with me the zeal of the Lord. God is absolutely invested in the Christ-mission heart and soul! Thus Christmas is a time of remembering what God has begun. Rick Warren makes the point that in California there are many places you can get surfing lessons. But there is no place you can get lessons on how to make a wave. The sport only exists by riding on the waves God makes. On this earth, God has created an enormous wave called the redemption mission. That first Christmas was the first time it hit our shores. And His zeal is fully & emotionally committed to keeping that particular wave hitting us over and over again. Can we pause in this Christmas week and feel His desire that we become invested in His wave…FEEL THE ZEAL! ~verlon
