Embark on a 25-day Advent journey that will prepare your heart for Christmas through a daily encounter with the prophetic promises of the Old Testament and the fulfillment of those promises in Jesus, the Messiah. For most, the Advent and Christmas seasons arrive each year with heightened anticipation and activity. We do what we can to keep up with our daily lives and all that these holy seasons entail, often to the neglect of our souls. This devotional will guide you through the first 25 days of December with a daily dose of: a prophesy fulfilled in Jesus, an opportunity for personal reflection, and a simple prayer. When Christmas day arrives, there are additional prayerful reflections for the 12 Days of Christmas, leading up to Epiphany. Join the shepherds, angels, and key personalities of the manger scene, and delight in the joy of waiting, watching, and wondering once more.
