[S] 2 Peter 1:16 --
16For we did not follow cleverly devised tales when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.
[O] Jesus came into this world as a physical human being, born as a baby and grew up just like each of us. He isn't someone without origin, a mythical character who came and gone but He worked with people just like us to pass on the message of His purpose and He left behind the eyewitnesses who could not sit still but to proclaim His majesty throughout generations leading up to now. Today, we are those eyewitnesses and unless we are witnessing His majesty right in our own lives, there won't be much to proclaim. The beauty of it all is that this isn't some cleverly devised story that just got passed on from one generation to another but it's about a real future reality of our Lord Jesus Christ powerfully returning to continue and complete His original purpose of coming to earth as the baby Jesus.
[A] Being a follower of Christ is much more than reciting what you learned about Jesus Christ. It needs to be aimed at the power of His coming back and how much I can testify His majesty based on daily witnessing of His majesty. I need to meditate more on His majestic aspect especially during this time of Christmas where it can get boiled down to just being a little baby.
[P] Dear Jesus, come and take the center seat of my heart and allow me to be a strong witness for Your majestic power of Your coming back to lead us home in Heaven. In Your name. Amen.
