Merry Christmas from David Cerullo and Inspiration Ministries
•1 MinutesThere is a uniquely beautiful Christmas carol that captures the essence of what this season is all about. It’s called “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.”
The lyrics are based on the biblical prophecy from Isaiah 7:14:
The Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Emanuel.
The name Emmanuel literally means “God with us.” God gave Jesus to mankind as the first Christmas present.
This is the glorious news that we proclaim to the nations, that Jesus is Emmanuel. By His shed blood, He has ransomed sinful mankind – and now He lives with us through the precious Holy Spirit.
So have a very merry Christmas, knowing that God loves you and wants to be with you! I pray that you may know the presence of your Heavenly Father and His blessings in a special way during this season. And may you join with God’s people in singing this glorious hymn, both now and forevermore:
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel, shall come to thee, O Israel.
God bless you,
David Cerullo
