The Son of The Highest

By Apostle Tonya

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. Luke 2:13-14

Most magnificently, the sacred Scriptures grant us the eternal truth of the majesty and wonder of the Birth of the Son of the Highest. In witnessing in the Scriptures the Birth of Christ, there manifest in our hearts the knowing of the depth of everlasting love the Eternal Father has for His Children.

Might we for a moment then imagine the hearts of the shepherds on the holy night of the Birth of a Light to lighten the gentiles?

What awe and splendor the shepherds beheld when the manifestation of the glory of the Lord shone round about them! Abiding in the field, the shepherds beheld a Holy Angel who comforted their fear of the Glory with good tidings and great joy of Jesus Christ’ Birth.

Further, we read with awe of our Father’s endearment for humanity with the gift of eternal life, as the Angel granted the shepherds a Holy Invitation to worship Jesus Christ, the Babe, who he declared was lying in a humble manger.

Spectacular, isn’t it? Heaven’s splendor revealed upon the sky on that most glorious night to announce our King of Glory was Born!

It is in the Gospels of God, that record the ancient history of the miraculous Birth of Christ, the Second Person of the Godhead. For instance, in Luke 2:13, the physician Luke records for us with blessed enthusiasm that with suddenness a multitude of the heavenly host accompanied the Holy Angel glorifying God, the Father, with Earth’s First Christmas song.

Might we for a moment continueth on praising our Father with speaking of the shepherds? For the shepherds believed the Holy Birth had indeed occurred and with haste sought to meet the Son of the Highest. Thereafter, the Scriptures record the shepherds made the Birth of Christ known.

And so, in this most holy season as we surround ourselves with family, might we continueth on with this word of the faithful shepherds who spread the wonder of Christ’s Birth over two thousand years ago!

Holy God, today we giveth Thee thanks for the Gift of eternal life and the strength from the Holy Spirit to witness the word of the eternal Son of God’s Birth this Christmas. Amen.
