Here is a timely Christmas message for this season from TB Joshua. We encourage and exhort you to spread the Word of God to the four corners of the earth.
Jesus is the centre of Christmas. Let us put God where He belongs this season by making His Word the standard for our lives. So, what is Christmas to you? Christmas is a day set aside by Christians to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
This is Christmas in the air; this is the New Year in the air – the season to give and to share. Many people believe this is a season of giving. If this truly is a season of giving, then let us rededicate ourselves to the act of giving.
These are some of his counsels and messages for the Christmas season.
TB Joshua: A Timely Christmas Message – The Beauty of Life
LISTEN TO TB JOSHUA’S MESSAGE ON THE BEAUTY OF LIFE
The beauty of life does not depend on how happy you are, but on how happy others become because of you. How many people are happy because of you today? How many lives have you touched?
Someone needs something you possess. It may be your love, your smile – a genuine one – or your money, strength, or time. Giving is not limited to wealth; it begins with the heart.
You may say you are poor, but you may be surprised to discover that someone else is poorer than you. In life, there will always be people who have more and those who have less. Let us therefore make helping the widow, the needy, the poor, and the refugee a priority over any other form of help.
Never come around people only because of what you hope to receive; rather, come around people because of what you can give. The Apostle Paul reminds us in Acts 20:35: “In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus Himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
Give with all your heart
Whatever you choose to do, do it with all your heart. The way I love others, help others, forgive other, care for others is the same way I will be loved, forgiven, and cared for. When we understand this truth, life becomes truly wonderful to live.
This principle is at the heart of our series on the timely Christmas message from TB Joshua. What we give may attract people, but the manner and motive with which we give attract God. God is His Word, and while anyone can give, it is the motive behind the giving that truly matters.
What is not done well is not done at all. Let us not forget that Jesus knows our hearts and understands the motive behind our giving. He knows the intentions behind our actions – our giving, our love, and our care.
Engage in Sacrificial Giving
“I have little” – this is often the best time to give what your life depends on. When you have much, it can be difficult to identify what truly matters to give. If you cannot part with little, you will not be able to part with much.
What is the little you have? What does “little” truly mean? That moment is the best time to give. It is then that you can identify the right thing to give out of that little, because whatever is given from little feels like a true sacrifice.
Today, giving is often no longer a sacrifice because people give what they no longer need – what is left over. That is not sacrifice. Everything about you is valuable, and someone, somewhere, is in need.
This truth is clearly reflected in this timely Christmas Message from TB Joshua. Our genuine willingness, combined with God’s ability, works miracles. Everything big starts small. If you do not start little, you cannot grow big. To become great, you must begin small. If you wait to have something big before you give, that moment may never come.
You may ask, “I keep giving, but where is the reward?” When you give in a way that attracts God’s attention and pleases Him, someone, somewhere, is prepared to bless you in return. When what you give pleases God, it inspires you to give even more because of the reward that follows.
As T.B. Joshua reminds us: “I must play my role because our willingness plus God’s ability makes us what we are as children of God.”
TB Joshua: Timely Christmas Message: Conclusion
As we reflect on the true meaning of Christmas, let us remember that it is not about how much we have, but about the heart with which we give.
Whether little or much, our willingness to give – when aligned with God’s Word – has the power to bless others and attract God’s attention. This is the essence of this timely Christmas message from TB Joshua: a call to live selflessly, give sacrificially, and allow God to work through our obedience.
As we celebrate this season, may we begin where we are, with what we have, and trust that our genuine willingness, combined with God’s ability, will produce miracles. Let our love, generosity, and compassion reflect Christ to the world, not only at Christmas, but every day of our lives.
