God is faithful. He always keeps His promises.  700 years prior to the birth of Christ, a promise from God, a prophecy from the mouth of Isaiah entered into history:

Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, a virgin will be with child and bear a so, and she will call His name Immanuel."

According to Matthew 1:18-23, God with us is our only hope.  Jesus is our Immanuel.  He will save His people from their sins (1:21).

As you ready your soul to meet with God tomorrow (with God's people), consider the following ways to stoke the fire:

• Seek the Lord's face with His people at the congregational prayer meeting, 9am.  Isaiah 52:13-53:12 will be our guide.
• Soak your soul in Isaiah Chapter 7. And, ready your heart to sing:
• Come Thou Long Expected Jesus
• O Come O Come Immanuel
• Hark the Herald Angels Sing
• Who is This So Weak & Helpless?
• Christ the Mediator

Praying for you, Jim
