Sunday Praise & Worship Message - First Sunday of Advent - Expectation

As we enter into the season of Advent and remember the great and wonderful birth of Jesus, we need to always remember the reason that he came into this world. No words can better express it than those in John. Those words of, “For God so loved the world”, ring true each Christmas season. God loved us so much and expressed it in such a heartfelt way by sending His own son to live among us, to teach us, to love us and to die for us. There is nothing more humbling to realize than that God loved us so much that He sent his son to be our atonement sacrifice. 
In today’s message, we will look at the expectation. What are we expecting in the birth of Jesus? Even before his birth, Jesus was to be the mighty God, the everlasting father and the prince of peace. That in and of itself is a lot to live up to.
