THIS DECEMBER – THIS CHRISTMAS 

THIS DECEMBER – THIS CHRISTMAS: MY TEN SPECIAL CHRISTMAS ‘WISDOM NUGGET DIGEST’ TO YOU! 

This CHRISTMAS . . . This DECEMBER, it’s great knowing these but not limited wisdom nuggets that WORTH digesting as such: 

Firstly, WHAT IS CHRISTMAS? It is a yearly COMMEMORATION and CELEBRATION of God’s LOVE to mankind in the BIRTH of our Lord and Saviour – Christ Jesus and His REDEMPTION CAUSE on earth for the good of ALL mankind. 

Secondly, I am laying out some TEN WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST which I love you to observe for your own good – It will secure you in GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in this DECEMBER Christmas from lots of shortfalls that people get trapped into. 

HEREIN are the TEN WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST to assist you wisely in this DECEMBER CHRISTMAS preparation if you may: 

•  1ST WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall PREPARE your soul for Christmas – [Romans 12:1-2]. We need to PREPARE a room in the INNER being of our heart for the Lord in this Christmas – [Revelation 3:20; Luke 2:7b]. 

•  2ND WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not over BURDEN the Salesclerk with your worries – [Matthew 6:25-34 (note especially vs. 33 – the need to seek right)]. 

We need not let the worry of gifts – Shoes, games, transport, groceries, clothing’s, jewelries and other forms of shopping and shoppers, to weigh us down and get us into debt. You need to escape from the bondage of – BUY today for nothing to PAY in WORRIES and ANXIOUSNESS with HEAVY HEARTS and BURDEN later – resulting and leading to depression. 

•  3RD WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall GIVE yourself with your gift – [2 Corinthians 8:1-5; 2 Corinthians 9:7-11; Psalm 49:6-9]. 

GIVE God your HEART before you GIVE your material gains and gifts: Give Him your heart, the Lord requires first before anything. Your life is worth to God than your gift. GIVING IS LIVING. 

•  4TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not VALUE gifts by their cost – [Luke 21:1-5; Matthew 2:11]. The least expensive gift may speak LOVE and with great hearts than the costly.  

•  5TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not LEAVE (keep) Christ outside Christmas – [Matthew 2:13]. Joseph was with Christ during Christmas celebration mood; hence he could hear from God about the enemy and cohorts’ intent and plan – for King Herod had set a danger plan against baby Jesus. Don’t let Christmas be used for evil work against you and your family. 

•  6TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not ALLOW Father Christmas to REPLACE Christ in your heart and that of your family – [Ephesians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:27; Luke 2:11]. Some will put up some masquerade and sorcery circus acts to display in a devilish mood, terrorising and frightening people in the name of Christmas. Don’t get people hurt please. Stay far away from such attraction. 

•  7TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not FORGET and NEGLECT the needy – [James 1:27; 2:14-20]. Christmas is a very good time to extend God’s love in you to the needy around you. For the have not will always be among us the scriptures say – Deuteronomy 15:11; Mark 14:7. 

•  8TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not NEGLECT your Church – the place of gathering for Fellowship, serve and Worship of God in Christ Jesus stead – [Hebrews 10:25]. What is the Church? It is the voluntary gathering of people to FELLOWSHIP with one another in the LOVE of Christ, to SERVE God ACCEPTABLY and to WORSHIP God WORTHILY in spirit and truth. The service in the Church highlights the Christmas. In the morning it is called MASS – Celebration and Commemoration while in the evening – it is called BENEDICTION. [John 4:20-24; Philippians 3:3; 1 Corinthians 1:9, 1 Corinthians 14:25]. 

•  9TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall be humble as a LITTLE Child – [Mark 10:15]. It takes a childhood heart to embrace the spirit of Christ birth for the called Christmas. Hence, it’s a time of childhood spirit and not childish attitude which we may see on our streets and community during this period. 

•  10TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall WORSHIP and give your heart toward God in Christ Jesus – [Matthew 2:11; John 3:16; Revelation 3:20; John 1:12]. Let Christ be at the top of your Christmas commemoration and celebration. Prepare and decorate your hearts much more to your house. 

And FINALLY: 

KEEP SELFISHNESS OUT OF YOUR CHRISTMAS – FOR SELFISHNESS makes Christmas a BURDEN, but LOVE makes Christmas – PEACEFUL, LOVELY, GOOD WILL and JOYOUS in every way. FOR GIVING IS LIVING. AND CONTENTMENT IS A GREAT GAIN IN LIFE AND GODLINESS. 

Wishing you a MERRY Christmas of good will and peace. And BLESSED COMMEMORATION and CELEBRATION in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
