Are you celebrating a false Christmas?
By Trudy Belles

Friends, no matter where I look, I see the fake man in the red suit. Today on an internet Home Page, he had his face below the words “Bonjour Santa”.

Suddenly it hit me – do you think the evil one had a part in raising him up? Look closely at the spelling of Satan and Santa? Hmm, interesting isn’t it?

The king of deception and lies will do anything and use anyone to come between mankind and the one true Godhead. He will try and use anyone to shift our gaze of Lord Jesus and take away our focus on the true meaning of Christmas.

Are you part of the fake Christmas ideology? Are you promoting the man in the red suit? Remember the other man in the red suit laughs every time you or someone else does so. Is the man in the red suit entering your home? Is he on your Christmas cards? Are you singing about him on this blessed day?

God is watching all of us. The Father is looking down on all who will reject a false Christmas and cleanse their hearts and their homes from all falsehood. Please join me and let us remember that the Son of God was sent to us as a Saviour and Redeemer. He suffered and died for our sins. If we have to remember the letter S at Christmas, let it be only the SON OF GOD!

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit amen.

A Prayer For Christmas
By Trudy Belles

Father God, I want to say 'sorry' for all the years we have failed You at Christmas

We have celebrated Christmas often in a way that would have made You so sad

We often focused on other things, than only on You and Your Son Lord Jesus

Christmas is drawing near again; please forgive us, as we mend our ways

Help us to remember, that You sent You’re only Begotten Son as a humble babe for us

You sent Him on a mission that ended in His death

You loved us so much, that You allowed Him to bear our sins

You loved us so much, that You offered us a chance of eternal life thru Him

You loved us so much that You abandoned Your Son, when He needed You the most

He was alone on the Cross, while You hid Your Face for us

Oh Father, we are so sorry...

How can we ever make it up to You Lord?

We cannot, but we can try to be different this Christmas...

We can focus only on Him and remember the precious gift of Your Son

We can stay away from the entrapment of this world and others who celebrate a false Christmas

We can only focus on Your Son and You

Help us to be faithful and let go of our past mistakes

Today is a new day; we are washed by a repentant heart

Today, we can start again and make Christmas a holy day

This Christmas we can truly celebrate the birth of Your Son

Help us Lord, we need Your grace to be faithful

Help us to be committed

Help us to change

Thank You amen
