THE DAILY BLUEPRINT FOR 11-28-06
HIS ROOTS
ISAIAH 11:1&2
And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of His roots! And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might - the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord!
As we move from the Thanksgiving season unto the Christmas season -the LORD JESUS should come more into view as we celebrate His birth - Jesus had humble beginnings- born to parents that had to travel right up to the time in which He was to be born and finding no room in the inn -Jesus our Lord was born in little more then a barn on the edge of town - The angels proclaimed this good news not to everyone but to the shepherds out in the field -the first to see the Lord after His birth - He did not grow up in a palace but in a small town where everyone knew everyone - Jesus did not have a formal education but was a worker - He was a carpenter by trade and had to earn a living -imagine the LORD GOD having to work on the earth He made! Its amazing that God would stoop so low as to became a man - it was all because HE loved us so much HE was willing to give all to save us! The genealogy of Jesus is not less amazing - in His linage He had prostitutes and other people that would not seem to be a good blood line at all - but God knew all this before hand and what God can do with scraps is amazing -He did wonders with just two fish and some bread - Jesus Christ our Lord came from Jesse - and HIS root is still growing today -in the hearts of every believer - if we look at our lives -we can see that we too have humble beginnings - we come to JESUS on our knees all of us - no matter what your name is or how much money you have - its level ground -Jesus lived a meager life - some passed Him by as nothing more then a carpenter in a small village- people like that don't become much of anything - but now look -JESUS is LORD of all - He laid HIS Life down to save us - HIS roots are deep - and we are apart of the Vine now that HE has saved us - lets grow in CHRIST -by remembering HIS roots!
A side note: Where we come from is not as important as Whos we are!
We belong to JESUS since HE purchased us! Amen!
With CHRIST , our roots grow deep into God!
