Luke 2:8-14 ~ Heavenly Host †

 



His Majesty is above earth and heaven.
 He has raised up a horn for His people,
praise for all His saints,
for the people of Israel who are near to Him.

Praise the Lord!

When does Christmas end?
Well,  if you had to pick..., what would you decide? ABC Channel 13 Houston, Harris County and surrounding Counties took a Poll on Sunday. 

 The enthusiastic response had many people who were answering and fell into two camps. The most frequent answer was, "12 Days of Christmas."  "The day the Magi arrive, January 6th." And asked why, this was logical. This allows a greater celebration, family has extended days to arrive, travel and celebrate Christmas, again.  And just because people want to enjoy seeing the manifestation of the Spirit of Joy in the Birth of Jesus Christ.  To enjoy the work of their hand without as many things to do. To sit and enjoy.

The second answer was the day after Christmas! So, there you go, two sets of answers.











Luke 2:8-14




And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.


9 And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. 10 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,

14 “Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”









.

Alleluia! Unto us a child is born.                                                               











The Heavenly Host


Psalms 103:21
Bless the LORD, all you His hosts, You who serve Him, doing His will.

Nehemiah 9:6
"You alone are the LORD. You have made the heavens, The heaven of heavens with all their host, The earth and all that is on it, The seas and all that is in them. You give life to all of them And the heavenly host bows down before You."

1 Kings 22:19-22
Micaiah said, "Therefore, hear the word of the LORD. I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right and on His left."




We have tried to count the Bethlehem Shepherds and ... sheep...

Matthew 18:10

See that you do not despise one of these little ones. 
For I tell you that in heaven their angels 
always
 see the face of my Father who is in heaven.

And if each person on earth has a Guardian Angel - this places the population of Angels as Heavenly Host between 107 Billion and 9 Billion. Or more. With the Birth Rate being low as 12 for 6 years - we appear to be putting Angels enjoying the comforts of Heaven!!! 



Believe, believe we can safely assume Heavenly Host of Christmas is at least 107 Billion.
Bigger than the Super Bowl on a good year!

Jesus is with Abba as Creation occurs.

Hebrews 1:6
And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says,
“Let all God's angels worship Him.”


Isaiah 40:26
Lift up your eyes on high And see who has created these stars, The One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name.

He knows all the Host of Heaven by name.  The Heavenly Host has been with Father God who is Alpha and Omega. Ancient of Days.



Hebrews 1:3
He upholds the Universe by the Power of His Word.



2 Kings 6:5-
When the servant of the man of God rose early in the morning and went out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was all around the city. And the servant said, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?” 

16 He said, “Do not be afraid, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” 1

7 Then Elisha prayed and said, “O Lord, please open his eyes that he may see.” 

So the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.









And Jesus Himself tells us He has authority over all things.

Matthew 26:53
Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels?





Abba, Father,

Jesus spoke Your Word telling us always to Pray and Have Hope.

We lift up to You, Father God, our most pressing prayer request, knowing You have heard and answer. Dwell in us. Help us to seek You first. Bless our souls, lives and hearts with Jesus. 

We will seek You first in Your Love. And we will finish well, with those we Love.

Merry Christmas to All!

Let Covid pass, the world to heal and our Nation to have the true 
sympathy and care for one another in healing,
as Your Praying Nation, we are.

Joyous to have You dwell in my soul.
Love to know You dwell in those I Love. 

Thank You, Father God, and Blessed be the Name of Jesus the Lord. Amen.

2 Timothy 3:16 ~ All Scripture

 




2 Timothy 3:16


All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness






Matthew 4:4 

He answered and said, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 


Matthew 22:29b 
Know the Scriptures  the power of God.

Matthew 5    
17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. 18 For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

Isaiah 44:26
Who confirms the message of His servant and fulfills the counsel of His messengers, who says of Jerusalem, 'She will be inhabited,' and of the cities of Judah, 'They will be rebuilt, and I will restore their ruins'

Matthew 24:35
Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.

Luke 16:17
But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.

Luke 21:33
Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.

1 Timothy 3:16
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness; He who was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the spirit, Seen of angels, Preached among the nations, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.























Abba, Father,

Blessed be the Lord God Almighty
Blessed be His Son, Jesus Christ.

Dwell in us.
Help us to see You first.
Open our eyes to Heaven on earth.
Bless us in Jesus to pray well.

In Jesus Christ,
Our Family will live forever.
And finish well.

Let Your Glory fill our lives.
Renew us in Hope, Faith and Love daily.
In Jesus, we are Blessed. 

Bless this Nation to Hope in You.

Help Your Good Creation.

We Look to Jesus. Savior, God's Only Son.

Thank You, Jesus.
Amen!

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
