A Wonderful, Joyous Birth

Luke 2:1-20
I. WE TRUST THAT EVENTS ARE IN THE HANDS OF OUR SOVEREIGN GOD (vv. 1-5).

II. ONLY A SOVEREIGN GOD COULD HAVE HIS SON BORN IN THE RIGHT PLACE, AT THE RIGHT TIME, AND TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE (vv. 6-7).

III. BY THE SOVEREIGN HAND OF GOD, THROUGH THE BIRTH OF HIS SON THE LOWLY ARE EXALTED AND THE HAUGHTY MADE LOW(vv. 8-16; 1:52).

IV. THE SOVEREIGN BIRTH OF JESUS HAS BEEN SPREAD ABROAD BY THOSE WHO WERE WITNESSES OF HIS BIRTH (vv. 17-18).

V. THE JOY OF THE SOVEREIGN BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST (vv. 19-20).
