Favor with God, a sermon about favor with God and how it unfolds in our lives.
by Eddie Lawrence
Text: Luke 1:6 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And having come in, the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!” 29 But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was. 30 Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS…..38 Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her. (NKJV)
1. An Announcement from God (v26-28)
-Mary was made aware that God was speaking to her. In her case, it was an angel. God has a way of getting our attention when He desires to call us into action for His plans and purposes.
-(List the ways that God can speak to us and briefly share those here in the sermon)

This was written by my wife, Mikki for her blog, Mikki’s Journey.
MY GROWN UP CHRISTMAS LIST
As I awakened this morning, I found myself thinking of a Christmas song entitled “My Grown-Up Christmas List”. It is a beautiful song full of meaning. I began to think about what my list would look like this year. I am going to share a very personal “Grown-Up Christmas List”.
As I imagine myself opening gifts on Christmas morning – untying the bows, ripping off the paper as one by one, these are the gifts I would like to open this year:

FIVE ENCOURAGEMENTS FROM THE FIRST CHRISTMAS SEASON
by Eddie Lawrence
Introduction
– Did you hear about the little boy went Christmas carrolling in the middle of January. He went to a house and a man sitting in his living room heard a thin, piping voice singing, "O Come All Ye Faithful." He went to his front door and opened it, and there was a little boy singing Christmas carols.

MIRACLE MOMENTS
The witness of God’s power that confirms God’s plans.
Key Passage
Luke 1:35 And the angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God. 36 Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren. 37 For with God nothing will be impossible."
Message in a Sentence– The unfolding of God’s plan for our lives often involves miracles so we will truly know it is God’s plan.
Just as miracles surrounded the birth of Christ, miracles still surround the new births that occur within His Church.

Just thought I would throw in a short outline for those last minute devotionals you often are called upon to share:
THE GIFT OF PRESENCE
Text–There are so many you could use with this devotional (Hebrews 13:5)
We make lot about Christmas ‘"presents" but I want to talk about "presence." Sometimes the greatest gift we can give someone is to simply be with them. Think of the presence of the people at Jesus birth and how that must have encouraged Joseph and Mary.
Think about the following:

How to Choose the Right Gift
John 3:16
What makes a great gift?
Let’s look at God’s first Christmas gift to us and see if we can discover some ideas to help us give a great gift to someone we love.
We will use an acronym of the word "GIFT" to guide us.
It is:
1.Good
Gospel is good news.
Good will toward men.
Something the person can use.
Something the person will cherish.
Not second hand or cheap.
2.Intimate
It is special.
It reaveals your heart to someone else.
Intimacy has been defined as In-to-me-see!
Jesus was thinking of us.
Father so loved US that He gave…
The gift of Christ reveals God’s heart toward us.
3.Free
Freely given not out of obligation.
No strings attached.
It costs you nothing to recieve it.
It is free to the reciever but very costly to the giver.

Three Announcements
We often think of the announcements as a boring time. Not so when God starts trying to get our attention that something is about to change and shift. I believe that God still makes announcements to us when He is about to do something if we will only listen. Think of the ways He announced the greatest shift in history.
The following three items can be separate messages or one sermon. For a series, you could use them separately the three Sundays before Christmas. This would be a series that would help people see the totality of Jesus coming. The same is true if you wanted to use it in a single message. I will include some thoughts under each point for you to consider:
1. The Holy Spirit Announcing Jesus Coming
-In the Garden of Eden
-Through the Old Testament Prophets
-Through Mary
-Through Joseph
-Through Martha
