Weekly Global Media Outreach Prayer Letter

“So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped Him in closhs and placed him in a manger, because,there was no room for them in the inn.” (Luke 2:5 7) Please pray for the people of Bethlehem. This tiny village in the country of Israel is where Jesus Christ was born over 2,000 years ago. Please pray that the peace and joy of Jesus would fill this town which has been subject to so much strife in recent years. At www.iChristianLife.com, you can find many resources to help you grow in your Christian life. If you click here here, you can see 4 short videos by Joyce Bartholomew who will share Life Lessons that God has taught her. One of the life lessons is “Be Joyful” -- how you can be continually joyful no matter what the circumstances. “Joy to the world, the Lord has come! Let earth receive her King! Let every heart prepare Him room, and heaven and nature sing!” There are the words to a Christmas song. It is so true — Joy to the world! The angel said when Jesus was born, “I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.” Where does this joy come from? Jesus is our Savior; He has paid the price for our sins. When we accept Him as Lord and Savior, our sins are forgiven and we are assured of eternity in heaven. Jesus is the source of our joy no matter what our circumstances. Jesus Himself was born in humble circumstances in a stable. His family was not rich, and He no doubt had to work much of His life. His country was oppressed at that time by the Roman Empire. Yet Jesus had joy — and you can too! Even if you are sick, or poor, or discouraged, Jesus Christ can be the source of your joy this Christmas — and throughout the coming year and the rest of your life. So this Christmas, let us celebrate the birth of Jesus with great joy. Let us pray this week That someday soon everyone in the world would know the true meaning of Christmas — that Jesus is born! That God would give our staff at Global Media Outreach great peace and joy That your family this Christmas would experience the joy of knowing Jesus personally Merry Christmas from all of us at Global Media Outreach to you and your family! Your friends at Global Media Outreach This is an actual response received at one of our Web sites: "I want to give thanks to the great deed you have done on this website; and thanks for being in my home on the one day I needed this the most.

“The angel answered (Mary, Jesus’ mother), “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God...For nothing is impossible with God.’” (Luke 1:35, 37) Please pray for the people of Austria. Austria is located in the heart of Europe and has a long Christian heritage. However, like many countries, it is so important to win the young people to Christ as well as people of all ages. You can learn more about Austria and pray for Austria by visiting here. Please pray that the Holy Spirit will be poured out throughout Austria and many people would come to Christ. At www.iChristianLifeRadio.com, we have special music this Christmas season that will help turn your hearts and thoughts to Jesus this Christmas season. You can listen by clicking here and 24 hours a day you will be blessed by music and Bible teaching that can help you grow as a Christian. Jesus is the Son of God! As we celebrate Christmas this year, let us remember and honor Jesus Christ as the true and only Son of God. The Bible says that Jesus was born of a virgin — that God Himself was the Father of Jesus Christ. This is a great mystery that our human minds may not be able to fully comprehend. God Himself became a man and lived among us. Jesus Christ was fully a man — He was a human being. But He was also fully God — the Son of God here on earth. When Jesus was born, shepherd were out in the fields at night tending their sheep. Suddenly “an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord...” You can read the full story in the Bible in the gospel of Luke, chapters 1 and 2. So Jesus is God’s Son. What does that mean to us? It means many things — among them, that God loves us God lived as a human among us so He understands us God was willing to come to earth and live and die for our sins so we could be forgiven How great is God’s love for us! So this week, let us pray that Global Media Outreach would see millions of people pray to receive Christ this next year God would fill our staff each and every day with His peace and joy and Holy Spirit God would bless your family this Christmas time with His peace and they would all follow Jesus THANK YOU SO MUCH for your prayers. You have no idea how much they mean to us. Your prayers can touch God’s heart and bring Him joy — and can bring much benefit here on earth. May God bless you! And may you have a blessed Christmas. Your friends at Global Media Outreach This is an actual response received at one of our Web sites: "I am just so grateful that there are real people on this site and actually take time to read what we submit unlike most sites where there are computer generated responses. I was feeling so discouraged but am now ready to carry my cross again and follow Jesus; thank you so much" P, Zambia

“‘I am the Lord’s servant,’ Mary answered. ‘May it be done to me according to your will.’” Luke 1:38 Please pray for peace in India.

You can also get there by clicking “study the Bible” at www.iChristianLife.com. This is the season we celebrate Christmas — the birth of Jesus Christ our Lord! Over 2,000 years ago, Jesus Christ came to this earth to be born. The Bible describes how “God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary...The angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God. You will be with child and give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the Name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High...His kingdom will never end.” Even though Mary was a virgin and had never had relations with a man, God said she would give birth to a Son Jesus — and He would be called the Son of God. This was a great miracle — God became a man and lived among us. How great is the love of God for us! God could have just judged us — He could have ignored us — but He did not. Instead, He came to earth to be born as a man and give His life for our sins. It is a privilege to serve such a wonderful God. This week, let us join together and pray for The love of God to be poured out on everyone who comes to our web sites Jesus Christ would become known as Savior to all your famlly God would help our staff to be filled and controlled with the Holy Spirit each and every day Let us pray that, at this Christmas time of year, the hearts of people all over the world would turn to Jesus Christ the Savior. He alone can save people from their sins. He alone is King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He alone will come again to rule the whole earth. He alone is worthy of all praise THANK YOU so much for your faithful prayers. May God bless you and your family this Christmas and always, Your friends at Global Media Outreach This is an actual response received at one of our Web sites: "I Have Been Looking For this prayer for a long time and i have been wanting to recommit myself so thank you for this website and the prayer" E, Georgia (US)
