It was a cold night in Bethlehem when a baby’s cry pierced the silence, announcing the arrival of the Savior of the world. Wrapped in the swaddling cloths (meant for the sacrificial lambs) and lying in the manger (meant for feeding those lambs), Jesus, the Word made flesh, entered into human history. The angels proclaimed His birth to shepherds, declaring, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men” (Luke 2:14).

Jesus came to both bring salvation (sacrifice) and to equip us with the tools we need for spiritual victory (food) —one of which is the Sword of the Spirit.
