HOPE, PREPARE, JOY, LOVE-IT'S THE SEASON OF ADVENT!






“Behold, the virgin shall become pregnant and give birth to a Son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel--which, when translated, means, God with us” (Matthew 1:23, AMP).


This beautiful banner hangs in the narthex of Christ Church Cathedral in Nassau, New Providence, The Bahamas! Not only was the church impressive, but the banner expressed perfectly the sentiment of this joyous season of ADVENT.


Lord, you bring light into our darkness.


My spirit says, "Yes!" "Thank you Lord for this wonderful Christmas Season!"


We express HOPE for the coming of our King, Jesus Christ!


We PREPARE with anticipation of being a part of a royal priesthood which saves us from a dismal and dreadful existence.


We understand that we have a safety net that cradles us from destruction and sin.


We experience and embrace a new JOY, a real and deep down JOY because our righteousness is made perfect in Christ.


And finally we can walk in and realize a life changing LOVE the empowers us to rejoice in the knowledge that God is with us!


Learn more and appreciate what the coming of Christ means for your life. There's an interesting website which explains this Christian Season of Advent that I thought you'd appreciate: The Voice, Biblical and Theological Resources for Growing.


We are excited about the coming of Christ! Let's celebrate and sing with thanksgiving. Select some soulful, spirit filled,anointed music that encourages you to lift your voices and rejoice that the light of Jesus can surely dramatically alter, brighten our lives and remove the darkness of defeat! Declare with me friends that it's a new season. Feel the flutter, our hearts are over come with glee as we give birth to our spiritual reawakening! Holy Ghost we know it's you!


Lord we prepare for your coming!


How Great Is Our God! Bishop Morton

Shared in Great JOY!
