The nations - gifts before us
Look, the Lord, God Almighty, has placed the nations of the world as gifts before us! Now, is the time for unwrapping! The nations of the world are open for a new visitation from heaven. They are waiting for a new incarnation. They wonder if the miracle of Christmas could ever happen again?
There is a wonderful openness to the spiritual realities in the new generation in every nation in the world. This is the day of opportunity for all who know God to make him known to the nations that are looking for a greater reality than materialism and political idealism.
The wonder of Christmas is not a nice story tale or a romanticised distortion of an historic event. The wonder of Christmas can be seen in the covenant community serving the society in which it lives.
The wonder of Christmas can be experienced as reality when we unwrap the society in which we live of all its external glitters and lay down our lives to meet the deep needs behind the successful external surface.
