God’s Secret Weapon
You will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth and lying in a manger.
Those living in the days when Jesus was born could never have guessed that Christ the Messiah would come as a newborn baby who was fully dependent on his mother Mary for every need. He arrived under the cover of darkness hidden away in a stable full of animals. This was Gods secret weapon, the One who has come to die for all mankind. He didn’t come on the clouds with a trumpet sound but in the still of night.
We are his secret weapon when we recognise what lies within. God can use our mundane things to make a huge impact for his kingdom. The enemy will find it really difficult to stop us when we constantly try to change the world around us little by little.

Dear Lord, thank you that you want to use even our simple talents to help bring your kingdom to earth. Just like Jesus, we are your secret weapon even in our weaknesses. Be with us today as we fight your battle!
Amen
