13 Dec Anticipating the King – December 13, 2019
Anointed One
Reading: Psalm 2; Acts 4:1-31
I think Psalm 2 speaks the entire Biblical story in its “mere” twelve verses. Acts 4 gives the account of believers, convicted of the truth in Psalm 2, boldly proclaiming how to take refuge in Christ Jesus despite the opposition of governing leaders. As we anticipate the King, let us thank God for those emboldened with His truth and faithful to announce Life in Christ. The Anointed One has come!
Seeing Advent as His child: The earthenware pot ornament has a deep meaning. Psalm 2 reveals that we need saving. Christ who has the authority to crush us like earthenware provides a way for the earthenware pot to bear His Light and experience His refuge.
