WHY CHRIST CAME TO BETHLEHEM TO A MANGER — 8TH MESSAGE.....(SUN AM 12/27/2009)

Job 26:7 says, “He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.” What is a “nothing”? No Creation. He hung the Earth on His infinite, eternal Unbegotten Air, Vapor, Breath, a Cloud of His Breath. God puts His Air or His Breath as a support for everything. First Thessalonians 5:18 tells us to give thanks in everything. Why? Because every thing is supported by God’s infinite, Divine Breath. This Air, this Breath, is the Faith of the Father that He put in the Son. What is Faith? The Bible says it is the evidence of things not seen. Stop trying to hear, to see, to taste, to feel, and to touch. Just say, “Jesus, I live by your Faith.” Jesus said, “[I] live by the Father…” (John 6:57). How did Jesus Christ live? He lived with the Father’s Breath under Him.

The LORD has four Breaths, and one of these Breaths is called the Breath of Promise. A Promise is nothing but a Breath. The LORD gave a Promise to Abram in Genesis 13:14-17. He told him to look from the North to the South and from the East to the West, and He told him to walk through the land that He would give him. But Abram did not have possessions at this point in time. He did not have land. He did not have a Promised Seed. The Promised Seed that the LORD was talking about, here, was the Christ. This message shows how the four seasons fit around the Wheel of the LORD’s tetragrammaton, His Holy Name. We find God’s Breath of Promise in the North or the winter season and His Breath of Performance in the South or springtime.
