A BIRTHDAY FUNFAIR WITHOUT THE CELEBRANT

   That day was supposed to be "his day" his birthday. The tables were set, the occation DJ was on stand-by and all the necessary things that would have made that day a memorable one were provided. No stone was left unturned. They searched for him every where but he was nowhere to be found!


  One day, I bump into a very closed person to me. Before him stood a "gorgeous" table well "decorated" with all kinds of ALCOHOLIC DRINKS with packs of different types of CIGARETTE. The surrounding atmosphere was full of smoke neither was it from a nearby burning bush nor from a dump site but from multiple of mouths who were busy drawing smoke from sticks of cigarettes and releasing it to the atmosphere. I watched with "admiration" at the site as what I saw rather made me bled within.

  I put a question to him, what is going on here? and he said "I am celebrating chrismas". I startled for a moment seeing the height and the level of ignorance he displayed.
Then goes my second question to him; how do you celebrate without the celebrant?

  The devil rejoices more seeing the above description, why? Because he will beat his chest and applaud himself for having succeeded in misleading many, all in the name of celebrating chrismas. In such celebration, sin increases and hell bound men and women increase in number.

  Friends: JESUS was born in a manger (Luke 2 vs 7-8) signifying humility. And there was no funfair at his birth because it wasn't necessary.

  He came to set many free from sin which signifies suber reflection, (Matthew 1 vs 21) rather than taking many into sin through the ignorance celebration of his birth.

WORSHIP THE LORD INSTEAD:

  At this season, Join the wise men and the host of Angels to worship the Lord for the privilege of seeing the year ending.  (Matthew 2 vs 11; Luke 2 vs 11-14)

  You can turn to JESUS today through a sincere acknowledgement and a genuine repentance. He loves you and would want to have you in a personal and a consistent relationship. Be involved in things that gives glory to God and promote His kingdom.

May the Lord preserves and keep you in Him.
Amen.

Kindly share till it gets to the last person.

GOD BLESS YOU RICHLY.
