The world is a cold dark and dead place! I know that sounds morbid, but it is true. C.S Lewis paints this picture in his book, "The Lion the Witch and The Wardrobe" he writes, "it was all winter and no Christmas." This is a reality, a cold world without hope, but praise God for the Lion from the tribe of Judah has overcome! The Lamb that was slain is now our risen king! He was clothed in swaddling cloth only to be wrapped in burial cloth, He was born in a borrowed stable, to be buried in a borrowed tomb, the incarnation was the beginning of the crucifixion! Today we are focusing all our attention of This Lamb, The Promised Lamb, The Prophesied Lamb, The Perfect Lamb who came into the world to make our cold world of sin a means of Salvation. He is calling you today to come in from the cold and be revived, restored and redeemed, are you going to answer His call?

This might be bizarre but stay with me, Christmas is not worth celebrating, if we are not in the same passion looking forward to Christ's Second coming. Jesus promised He will come and make His home with us and because He did, we have Christmas, He came home for Christmas, and He is coming again, this time not as a baby humble in a manger, but as a King to take ownership of His.

Are you His? He came home for Christmas, are you going to be in His home for all the Christmas to come? This message is for those who are troubled, what you need is a promise you can hold on to, that is what is coming your way. It is time to come home this Christmas, back to His Word, His Heart, back to His Promises.

What are you dreaming of this Christmas? Most believers are not worldly, and we know the reason for this season, are you one of these believers? Praise The Lord!

Simeon was a believer just like you who was dreaming of a White Christmas, the promised Messiah who would come and make us white as snow. He was dreaming and hoping in this promise of God, and this beautiful dream and promise was revealed in Jesus as Simeon held The Christ Child in his arms. Today He is not a Child, but the Christ who is knocking on the door of our hearts, to make all of His promises a reality. What are you dreaming of this Christmas? Are you holding on to Christ The Savior? I'm dreaming of a Christmas where the reality of our sins being washed clean shines brighter than snow.

Stay tuned, this reality is coming your way.
