DECEMBER 25

 “ And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that evil-Merodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison, And spake kindly unto him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon, And changed his prison garments: and he did continually eat bread before him all the days of his life. And for his diet, there was a continual diet given him of the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life”. - Jeremiah 52:31-34.

To all readers, I want to share with you the significance of Christmas Day. It is a special day, Jesus Christ was born into this world to deliver mankind from its sinful ways. I have studied the weather pattern over the years of this particular day; the firmaments bear witness to this unique day across all countries and tribes. There is a glory over the surface of the earth, while some have snow, others fog, or harmattan haze.
In the text above, King Jehoiachin of Judah was delivered on a Christmas day (in the twelfth month on the five and twentieth day of the month) hundreds of years before Jesus was born. Seven significant events will happen in your life on this particular glorious day.
1. Your head will be lifted. You may have been experiencing a downward trend in your life, marriage, business, and workplace; you will no longer be the tail but the head. God is about changing your situation for the better because Jesus came into the world on the same day to deliver you. Everyone who sees you as nobody will begin to see you as somebody very special, and your head will no longer be bowed but lifted high.
2. You will be brought out of prison. Some people have been bound without freedom under the bondage of their task masters for quite some time. You will be set free now, just like those who set Daniel up in the lion’s pit. Your prisoners will replace you in the prison, while you will be set free. Jesus will liberate you and grant you permanent freedom.
3. You will be spoken kindly of. People have used their tongues to describe you negatively. God will change their tongue, and they will begin to speak well of you. They have said you are useless, good for nothing, cannot make it, never do well, under underachiever, all these negative qualities they describe you with, they will no longer see you that way anymore. A change for the better in you, they will begin to see and speak of.
4. Your throne above the throne of the kings. You are meant to be a king because the son of a king is also a king, but you reign like a slave. God will dethrone everyone sitting on your throne and enthrone where you belong, to rule and reign in Christ Jesus.
5. Your garment will be changed. The garment you put on, which has become a filthy rag, casts aspersions on you. The way you dress is the way you will be addressed; you were addressed badly everywhere you turn. Today, your garment or robe will change, and as a king, a sign of royalty is the king's garment. God is removing your present garment and replacing it with a new one.
6. You will continually eat bread. You may be lacking a daily bread, but the great provider is already here to provide the bread you will eat all the days of your life. Every lack will be turned to abundance in your life because Jesus was born on this day like no other day.
7. You will be given a continual diet on all the days until death. A diet is a food with all the essential ingredients needed for growth and development. You might be lacking the essential nutrients needed for you to succeed and become great. God is going to provide to you this day those nourishments needed by you for life.
