Day 18: Wednesday, December 14th, 2022

December 14, 2022 by West Park Baptist Church Leave a Comment

Family devotions and personal worship are great spiritual disciplines to embrace in this Advent season and continue year-round.

  1. Gather with those in your home to set apart a daily time together (15 minutes or more is fine… right after a meal
    is ideal).
  2. Have someone read the passage for that day.
  3. Discuss what it means in light of Jesus. What does it say about Him or His coming?
  4. Pray in response to the passage. Thank God for fulfilled prophecies, answered prayers, renewed hopes, etc. Ask the Holy
    Spirit to keep your hearts focused on His Word.
  5. Sing a hymn or carol of the season.

Week 3 – The Christ Child Emmanuel (Love)

Zephaniah 3:15-17

15 The Lord has taken away the judgments against you;
    he has cleared away your enemies.
The King of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst;
    you shall never again fear evil.
16 On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem:
“Fear not, O Zion;
    let not your hands grow weak.
17 The Lord your God is in your midst,
    a mighty one who will save;
he will rejoice over you with gladness;
    he will quiet you by his love;
he will exult over you with loud singing.

Galatians 4:4-5

4 But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.

Suggested hymns: O Come, O Come Emmanuel; Do You Hear What I Hear
