Christmas – Lifter Today

Building 429 “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” (Devotional)

June 25, 2019February 1, 2021 Lifter Today Angels, building 429, Christmas, Devotional

So many songs in my history have been just thatΓÇª songs that we sang about the Glory of God and about the anticipated arrival of the baby Jesus. Honestly a lot of the language in these old classics was lost on me until we decided to record ΓÇ£Hark, the Herald Angels Sing.ΓÇ¥ I decided maybe it was time for me to look into what the title of the song meant. So away I went to the dictionary and guess what I found out? The title of the song literally means ΓÇ£Listen attentivelyΓÇª. An angel that carries important news is singing.ΓÇ¥ After all of my years of singing the song I had never thought about what the title even meant. Luke chapter 2 verses 8 -14 delivers the account of what the angels actually sang ΓÇª

In His life, Jesus called Himself ΓÇ£the Good Shepherd,ΓÇ¥ who takes care of His flock. Us.

What a beautiful picture of how to love one another; but Jesus is not the only good shepherd that we can learn from.

The prophets promised a “Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6), and yet for centuries the people of Israel had known only war, captivity, and hardship.
