Day 2: Read Malachi 4:5

Let’s go back in time, several hundred years before Jesus was born. God gave prophets, like Elijah, to prepare people’s hearts for the coming of Jesus! He wanted people to have every opportunity to believe in the coming Messiah, the Savior who would wash away the sins of all who chose Him. Even now, He lovingly holds His children, washes away our sins, and offers us the opportunity to have a relationship, a friendship with Him that is closer than any other we could ever imagine. And guess what? He will be coming again soon to make all things right and bring us to heaven with Him.  Are you ready?

Activity: Make a megaphone out of a paper towel or toilet paper tube. Jesus’ first coming, His plan to rescue us and give us the opportunity to be saved from our sins is the reason we celebrate Christmas! What a wonderful thing to be celebrating! And He will be coming again soon! Use your megaphone to announce the good news of Jesus to all who will listen! Celebrate today!
