1 God rest you merry, gentlemen,
let nothing you dismay;
remember Christ, our Savior
was born on Christmas Day
to save us all from Satan's pow'r
when we were gone astray.
Refrain:
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
I. God Came to Deliver
A. Deliver from Dismay
1 God rest you merry, gentlemen,
let nothing you dismay;
remember Christ, our Savior
was born on Christmas Day
One of the great things about Christ’s coming is it gave us something to keep our eyes on!
O soul are you weary and troubled
No light in the darkness you see
There's light for a look at the Savior
And life more abundant and free
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in his wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of his glory and grace
B. Deliver from the Devil
to save us all from Satan's pow'r
when we were gone astray.
Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil.
Part of the devils works is to tempt us away from God.
2 From God our heav'nly Father
a blessed angel came
and unto certain shepherds
brought tidings of the same,
how that in Bethlehem was born
the son of God by name.
Refrain:
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
II.
God Came to Shepherds
2 From God our heav'nly Father
a blessed angel came
and unto certain shepherds
brought tidings of the same,
how that in Bethlehem was born
the son of God by name.
[Refrain]
This verse tells about the happenings in Luke 2:8-12
The fact that God came to the Shepherds helps us see that God’s coming is...
A. Available to All Men
It doesn’t matter who you are you can receive the gift of Jesus as your Savior!
Rich or poor
Educated or uneducated
Male or female
Boss or employee
Red, or Yellow, Black or white, or brown or purple or green!
God came and is available to All Men.
B. Available to the Active Men
Notice with me what the shepherds were doing when the Angels announced the coming of the Christ.
They were watching their sheep
They were doing their job.
Just a quick application from this fact.
God most often comes to those who are already doing what they are supposed to do.
3 "Fear not," then said the angel,
"let nothing you affright;
this day is born a Savior,
the true and radiant light,
to free all those who trust in him
from Satan's pow'r and might."
Refrain:
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
III.
God Came to Remove Fear
3 "Fear not," then said the angel,
"let nothing you affright;
A. The Command
Fear not, in some form, is in the Bible 365 times
that’s one time per day of the year.
Do you think that Maybe God wants us to trust Him?
B. The Cause
this day is born a Savior,
the true and radiant light,
Jesus is born, that will remove fear.
C. The Conclusion
to free all those who trust in him
from Satan's pow'r and might."
[Refrain]
We are free from Satan’s power and might
Try as he may, God is bigger than Him!
4 Now to the Lord sing praises,
all you within this place,
and in true love and fellowship
each other now embrace;
this holy tide of Christmas
is filled with heav'nly grace.
Refrain:
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
