THE GIFT THAT REVEALS WHO YOU ARE
📖 TO THE BIBLE
Isaiah 9:6 (NKJV)
“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
LET’S TALK
Christmas is the celebration of God’s greatest gift — not just a Child born, but a Son given. This distinction is powerful. The Child speaks of humanity; the Son reveals divinity. In Jesus, God gave us more than a miracle in a manger — He gave us a new identity in Christ.
The birth of Jesus was heaven’s strategic intervention into human history. God did not send a philosophy, a system, or a set of rules. He sent a Person. And in that Person came life, light, righteousness, and restoration. Christ did not merely come to save us from sin; He came to restore us to sonship.
This is the heart of Christ Identity Manifestation. When Christ was given, you were included in God’s redemptive plan. His birth announced your rebirth. His life revealed your life. His authority unveiled your authority. The government upon His shoulder speaks of dominion — and by union with Him, that dominion is shared.
Christmas reminds us that God is not distant, angry, or withholding. He is generous, intentional, and relational. In Christ, God brought peace where there was separation, purpose where there was confusion, and identity where there was loss.
Today, don’t just celebrate what Jesus did — celebrate who you are because He came. You are a son in the Son. You are accepted, empowered, and sent. Christmas is proof that heaven believes in God’s plan for you.
GO DEEPER
📘 John 1:12 (NKJV)
“But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God…”
📘 Galatians 4:4–5 (NKJV)
“…God sent forth His Son… to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.”
📘 Romans 8:17 (NKJV)
“And if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ…”
DECLARE
I rejoice in the gift of Christ.
Through Jesus, I have received sonship, authority, and purpose.
My identity is rooted in Christ, not in circumstances.
I walk today in peace, confidence, and divine assurance.
PRAYER
Father, thank You for the indescribable gift of Your Son. I celebrate Jesus today — not only as my Saviour, but as the revelation of who I am in You. I receive and walk in my Christ-given identity, living to please You and reflect Your glory. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
✨ DAILY CHARGE
Christmas is not only a day to remember His birth —
it is a day to manifest your identity in Him.
