Matthew 1:21 / Verse of the Day & Daily Devotion

The Gift of Christmas

From conception, Jesus’ purpose was made known: to save His people from their sins. Because even before God created the world—His plan was to save it.

Isn’t it interesting that you didn’t choose the time, place, body, or family in which you were born? But God has you here, right now, on purpose.

You’ve been grafted into an ongoing story playing out since the beginning of time. And this timeless offer, to be saved from the shackles of your sin and freed from a debt you could never pay, has been extended to you.

What is sin? Sin is choosing our way instead of God’s. Sin is rebelling against His design and His plan. And we’ve all done it—we’ve all fallen short of God’s righteous standard.

But that’s why He sent Jesus—because He loved us that much.

Like a soldier who sacrifices his life for his family, friends, or country, Jesus gave His life for the sake of the world.

If you’ve never accepted the free gift of salvation, today can be your day, and this moment can be your moment. There’s nothing you can do to earn it, but you can come to Him—just as you are.

How to Start Making Decisions that Honor God

Think back to a decision you made that you now regret. We’ve all done things that weigh us down and make us wonder, “Why do I seem to do what I know is wrong?” 

The apostle Paul knew what this felt like… 

“I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway.” 
Romans 7:19 NLT

The apostle Paul described this as a struggle between our old and our new natures. 

Our old nature is marked by a desire to do whatever seems pleasing to us in the moment, regardless of the consequences. And while this might feel freeing at times, it ultimately leads to conflict, chaos, and destruction.  

Before Jesus’ resurrection, the Hebrew people kept this old nature in check by closely following the laws God gave to Moses. These laws were meant to help people draw near to God. But they didn’t fix human nature—they revealed humanity’s brokenness. 

The law separated from God by revealing how far people naturally ...
