Make Room for Jesus

Luke 2:7 (NIV) – “And she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.”

Jesus knocks at the door of your heart—will you make room for Jesus ?

Open the Door to Christ

Each of us is an innkeeper. Whether we know it or not, we decide if there’s room in our lives for Jesus. Luke 2:7 reminds us that when Mary gave birth to Jesus, there was no room in the inn—no space for the Savior of the world. Yet today, we are given the opportunity to say “yes” to Him and invite Him in.

The Gospel of John presents Jesus as divine. He boldly stated seven “I Am” declarations that reflect His eternal nature and intimate connection with the Father. These include:

• I am the bread of life (John 6:35)
• I am the light of the world (John 8:12)
• I am the door (John 10:7)
• I am the good shepherd (John 10:11, 14)
• I am the resurrection and the life (John 11:25)
• I am the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6)
• I am the true vine (John 15:1)

All of these truths point to Jesus as the one who nourishes, guides, protects, and redeems us. However, He still waits—He stands at the door and knocks (Revelation 3:20). Your response matters deeply. Will you make room for Jesus in the  best room… in your heart today—the honeymoon suite, reserved for your deepest love?

As Proverbs 23:7 reminds us, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” Let your heart be filled with Christ. Let your thoughts reflect His presence. And let today be the day you make room for Jesus —not just during Christmas, but every day of the year.

Let Us Pray

Jesus, I make room in my heart for You. Take residence in every part of my life. Amen.
