It’s my privilege and pleasure to pronounce God’s blessings upon your life in the festive month of December 2025. May you be gladly and greatly blessed by “EHYEH ASHER EHYEH; YAHWEH ELOHE HAIVRIM” (I AM WHO I AM, the LORD the God of the HEBREWS [Exodus 3:14; 9:1; NASB])! Because you are precious to God, may you also be gladly blessed by the blessed words spoken to Virgin Mary by angel Gabriel at the First Christmas: “Greetings, favored one! The Lord is with you” (Luke 1:28b; NASB)! May you be greatly strengthened in your faith, to be able to say with Mary: “Behold, the bondslave of the Lord; may it be done to me according to your word” (Luke 1:38; NASB)! Indeed, may the Mighty One do great things for you (Luke 1:49)! May the LORD fill you, “the hungry with good things” (Luke 1:53a; NASB) during this festive season of the year! May the LORD give help to you even as “He has given help to Israel His servant in remembrance of His mercy” (Luke 1:54; NASB)! May your neighbors and your relatives hear how the Lord has displayed His great mercy toward you and rejoice with you (Luke 1:57)! May the Holy Spirit grant that, you too, like Zacharias, will speak in praise of God (Luke 1:64) during this festive season! May the LORD grant all who hear of His great grace and goodness in your life during this festive season will boldly testify of you: “The hand of the Lord [is] certainly with you” (Luke 1:66b; NASB)! May the “I AM WHO I AM” (EHYEH ASHER EHYEH), fill you with the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:67) to fulfill His calling upon your life in such a time as this! May “the LORD the God of the HEBREWS” (YAHWEH, ELOHE HAIVRIM) visit you and accomplish redemption for you (Luke 1:68b) in this festive season! May the LORD grant you salvation from your enemies and from the hand of all who hate you (Luke 1:71)! May He also grant “that [you], being rescued from the hand of [your] enemies, might serve Him without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him all [your] days” (Luke 1:74-75; NASB)! May the Spirit of God “guide [your] feet into the way of peace” (Luke 1:79b; NASB) in this festive season of the year! “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for He has visited us and accomplished redemption for His people” (Luke 1:68; NASB)! Yes, may you be gladly and greatly blessed by “EHYEH ASHER EHYEH; YAHWEH ELOHE HAIVRIM” (I AM WHO I AM, the LORD the God of the HEBREWS [Exodus 3:14; 9:1; NASB]), in December 2025 and BEYOND!
