‘Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace, goodwill toward men.’
Luke 2:14
A song of joy, praised by a great multitude of angels. An announcement of Jesus birth. The Lord is honored and glorified by praises in His name.
Even angels knew of Jesus birth, were they send by God or was there a huge party in heaven already at the birth of Christ… For God this must have bin a joyful but also dreadful day, as He only knew what His Son was going to face later in life… But also joyful, as He came to save sinners.
So small, so tender this Baby and so special in all ways. Born in a barn… as poor and low society seen, but oh, if they would have known! The Savior of the world was born, announced years ago, announced by angels and the brightest star of all. What a mysterious, still wonderful way of telling the world!
What does this praise of the angels tell us; that all glory belongs to God. Also in this big event, the miracle of Jesus birth. He sends peace to the world, peace as in Jesus! This song of praise took place in a peacefully scene, where the shepherds were guarding their flock. Just like Jesus is our Shepherd and watches us day and night! This brings us peace!
‘Sing your heart out’- is a slaying, but truly it can be a giving of your heart to God in honor of singing songs of His glory. Even the angels praise God. What a wonderful thought. A Christmas party sounding through the air, may it also come from your tongues these Christmas day’s!
