Message for December 21, 2025 from Pastor Shirley

“Therefore, the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him ‘Immanuel’.  Isaiah 7:14
“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel (which means ‘God with us’).” Matthew 1:23
These verses connect the Old Testament prophecy to the New Testament birth of Jesus, highlighting the miracle of God becoming man to dwell among humanity. 
Immanuel isn’t just a name.  It’s a promise.                           
The Prophet Isaiah 7:14 declared the name of Jesus, ‘Immanuel’.                                                                      Matthew told us “Immanuel” is “God with us.” 
We are never alone.  What a great reminder that no matter where we are, or what we’re facing, God is right there beside us.
Jesus said to His disciples, “And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age”              Matthew 28:20
For He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down ( relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!] Hebrews 13:5
