When we fully unwrap all that Christ is, then we can fully celebrate all that Christmas is. From Isaiah 9:6-7, let us see how we can fully unwrap how Christ has come to be our Everlasting Father, Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, and Prince of Peace.

Have you ever found an unopened gift after Christmas stuck way under the Christmas tree? Who would actually take all their presents and just stick them in a closet without opening them. That's crazy - yet that is what many a Christian does.We are often missing out on all God wants to do in our lives merely because we have neglected to open ALL His gifts up.

Every journey to Jesus is worth the wait. Let us be like those who are wise and keep pressing on, pressing through, and pressing in.

Beginning with prayer, understanding the timing of God and accessing the power of the Holy Spirit were the first three steps to pressing in to God. Now it is time to get in the game. A close look at Colossians 3 gives us valuable insight into what we need to do to live our lives in the momentum of the advancing Kingdom.

Jesus chose to set aside being God so that He could demonstrate how we can access the power of the Spirit in our lives.

There is more of God than we can imagine. Continue to press into His presence while asking Him to reveal more and more of Himself to you.

Pastor Tim Connor, teaching from Exodus 33, speaks about pressing into the presence of God.
