Christmas Bible Verses Countdown 2


This is part two of the Christmas Bible Verses Countdown to Christmas.  I originally saw this on Pinterest.  I wish I a could post a link to the specific post, but when I went to the website, it's no longer there. Here is the link to the pin on Pinterest, Mariah's Cooking Channel - Christmas Countdown Bible Verses.  So I decided to reproduce the list on my own and I sharing the verses for December 8th and December 9th for this week.  I hope that you'll read along with me this month.  I'll be sharing a few verses each week.


December 8, 2013

1:26  And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, 

1:27  To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. 

1:28  And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

1:29  And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. 

1:30  And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. 

1:31  And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. 

1:32  He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: 

1:33  And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

1:34  Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? 

1:35  And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. 

1:36  And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren. 

1:37  For with God nothing shall be impossible. 

Luk 1:38  And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. 

Luke 1: 26 - 38

1:18  Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. 

1:19  Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily. 

1:20  But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. 


1:21  And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Matthew 1: 18 - 21

I love these verses.  I hope you have been reading the others also along with me.  Christmas is not just a holiday to me, but the birth of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  Through his Grace we receive salvation.

Have a blesses week.

  1. Beautiful! We read these passages from Luke every Christmas morning before gifts and festivities to honor the real reason for the day.
