Christmas Devotionals (10 of 25) by Jason Major

Read Isaiah 9:6
 

“Using Scripture, come to Me tonight.  Meditate on these names – Everlasting Father, Wonderful Counsellor, Prince of Peace. This is who I am.  Come and journal with Me, this is who you are, speaking to your heart.”

“See yourself walking through to the Father’s house and sitting on the sofa, the Wonderful Father on the armchair.”

“And so, I am here. Yes it has been a while since you felt My peace.  I want to give it to you again.  I am not absent from the obstacles and pressures in your life.  I see all of your life’s troubles and I can help you put everything together. Would you like to work on a puzzle with Me?”

(He takes a box of puzzle pieces and puts them on the floor. The puzzle box is the Three Wise Men and the Nativity Star)

“I want to help you put together all the pieces of the puzzle. Right now, you feel confused and jumbled as this puzzle.  It is letting Me help you bring these pieces together that things will finally make sense. Love, romance, a job, calling, all of these are parts of the puzzle.”

“Your heart is on a journey, looking for My Star to guide you and give you the wisdom and revelation that you need for life.  Do you want to be like the Wise Men, understanding God’s plan and purpose so that you can be there to present your gifts to the King?”

“I am the Wonderful Counsellor. This means that I see the heart and brokenness and bring healing.  It also means that I am your life coach.  I help you with finding direction that you are looking for.  I am peace, and I give you peace.  It is not until your focus is off of you and your circumstances and onto Me and My government- the courts of  Heaven- where you recognize that it is Me who wants to help you out; and you don’t need to fear My rejection.  See Me placing possible pieces together.  Rest, and as you rest, you move from the basic questions to the harder questions. When you are still and quiet, then your heart can hear from Me the big questions that you need revelation.  Spend time with Me, and talk to Me now about what are the puzzle pieces in your life, where you need My comfort and My peace.”

Journal Entry: Father, here are the questions in my heart that are puzzling to Me.  What do You want to speak about these issues that are puzzling me during this season?
