The Birth of a Serpent Slayer
“She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a feeding trough, because there was no room for them in the inn. There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.” (Luke 2:7-8 WEB)
This was the backdrop of Jesus’ birth. The King of glory, God’s precious gift to us, was born on a dark, silent night, and there was no room for Him.
He did not come with great fanfare or a welcoming procession like the kings of the world would have received.
Instead, He came humbly like one of no repute.
But Heaven was not willing to let the Son of God be treated like a nobody.
“Behold, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. The angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people. For there is born to you today, in David’s city, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough.” Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God, and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will toward men.”” (Luke 2:9-14 WEB)
An angel and the heavenly hosts appeared to shepherds, shining with awesome glory, to announce the good news of the King who was born.
At that point in time, Israel was under Roman rule, and had been ruled by the Gentile kingdoms for many years. The devil had subjugated God’s chosen nation and pressed them hard under his thumb.
However, God’s answer was not loud or dramatic. He sent a baby to be born.
Just as He delivered the children of Israel from Pharaoh using a baby (Moses), He would deliver Israel once more from Satan using another baby (Jesus).
This time, the baby would not be a Lawgiver, but a Law-fulfiller. Jesus fulfilled the demands of the Law through His suffering and death at the cross, and established the New Covenant of Grace for us.
“I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.”” (Genesis 3:15 WEB)
No matter what its true origins are, today we celebrate Christmas because God made a promise in the Garden of Eden thousands of years ago, that the seed of the woman would crush the head of the serpent. He kept that promise, becoming the prophesied serpent slayer Himself. Christmas is about a promise kept!
Notice that in the prophecy, the one whose head is bruised is the serpent (Satan), but there is another person who is the “offspring” of the serpent. In the original Hebrew, the word “zaraka” is a noun in the singular, masculine tense, meaning one male child.
This wicked male child was destined to have hostility against the offspring (also singular and masculine tense) of the woman, who is our Lord Jesus Christ.
Who is the offspring of the serpent? If you are curious to find out his name as revealed in the Bible, and also the details about his eventual destruction and Jesus’ victory, you can read all the exciting details in “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever”: https://www.ko-fi.com/s/7b9e3783ae

Been waiting for the perfect time to do a name reveal for Baby R! Just received this beautiful diaper cake today and it made my heart so so full I couldn’t wait to share with you guys! 🤍
Only about a month more before we welcome our third lil’ angel, Rieanne Faith Joseph!
The name holds a special meaning to @shaneboyyy and I cause when we were 17, we had a conversation about what we’d name our kids (odd conversation to have considering that we weren’t even together!) & Shane said if he had a daughter, he’ll name her Rieanne. I found the name really beautiful and had always pitched the idea to him when we had our girls but he somehow didn’t like the name anymore then haha. Fast forward 11 years and 2 girls later, we’re finally using the name!
Rieanne also means “beautiful” or “little queen” - a reminder to us to always keep that beautiful faith in God and never forget how abundantly he has blessed us since the very beginning when we were only 19 because all that we have now is a testament that God is faithful and he is always watching over us.
“Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed,you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” - Matthew 17:20
Thank you so so much @cherieladie & @diapercakeavenue for the prettiest diaper cake i’ve ever seen!!! 💕

SUNAT ANAK KETIKA BAYI, SUNNAH YANG DILUPAKAN
Orang arab panggil khitan, orang melayu pula sebut khatan atau sunat, orang-orang tua sebut 'masuk jawi'.
Ramai yang tak tahu, sunat meng'khatan'kan bayi pada hari ke-7.
...Continue ReadingCIRCUMSTANCES WHEN A BABY, A FORGOTTEN SUN
Arabs call khitan, Malays mention circumcision or circumcision, the old people say 'enter jawi'.
Many people don't know, circumcision will make baby circumcision on the 7. th day
Yes, apart from aqiqah, shaving hair, and giving name, circumcision also among the sunnah of his majesty SAW on the 7th day of birth.
Baby is suitable for circumcision as soon as birth to 4 months old. After that, it's quite difficult to be circumcised, because the baby is starting to lie down.
Sadly, many do not know or miss this sunnah circumcision. It's also a custom for the Malays to circumcise their son when they're late for children.
From Jabir bin ' Abdillah ra; that Rasulullah saw implemented Hasan and Husain's aqiqah and Husain and proceeded both on the sevent (HR; Thabrani and Baihaqi)
From Ibnu ' Abbas ra said,
′′ There are seven things that include the sunnah of the baby on the seventh day: Named, circumcised,...." (HR; Thabrani)
From Abu Ja ' far ra said,
′′ Fathimah carried out his son's aqiqah on the seventh day. He also shaved and shaved his hair as well as the silver as the weight of his hair." (HR; Ibn Abi Syaibah)
Alhamdulillah, Taqi & Zaki we circumcised their time 3 months.
We're a little late. But for some people they ask, why is it so early?
Among the reasons why many choose to miss the child's circumcision:
1. Don't know the circumcision between the sunnah of the 7th day and better be hastened.
2. Pity and worry, afraid that the baby is sick.
3. I haven't reached the heart to see the circumcision process and watch the baby cry
4. Want children to feel the experience of being circumcised.
Circumcision is sunnah. So it's a religious guide. Islam is not wrong, but Islam is rahmah's religion.
So, don't think about ' poor baby ', afraid that baby is sick and so on. Because Islam will not be wronged by its people. While in animals Islam teaches rahmah's nature, this is what happens to babies. So of course there's rahmah when we're circumcising our baby.
Among the advantages of circumcision as a baby:
1. Babies lack of pain, because baby skin is still soft. baby sleeps a lot. Just like us, if we sleep, all the pain will be gone.
2. Baby wounds heal fast, as early as 5-7 days.
3. Babies don't need to confinement. Even parents don't need to get tired of taking care of children's abst Because the food is only milk.
4. Babies are not blocked by the move. Because the baby's work is lying down and sleeping.
5. Babies won't be afraid. Because babies still have no fear. Different from children, they already know the meaning of fear.
6. Parents don't need to be tired of persuading their children so they agree to circumcise Because baby is ready to surrender to be circumcised.
7. Circumcised babies can avoid the disease. Some children who have not been circumcised will be affected by blind urine. So, finally the doctor recommended to be circumcised soon.
8. Parents are also not tired of taking care of babies after circumcision. Because the care is very easy.
Isn't this all proof of sunnah rahmah? Ease baby's affairs and ease parent s' affairs.
If mom or dad are afraid, maybe we can try not to watch the circumcision process. Let her baby nenda or uncle accompany her. Don't be because of our shortcomings, the sunnah has to be missed.
If the circumcision experience is sought,
Hmmm, there are many other experiences that the child can find. At least, you can record the circumcision process using your handphone. When you grow up, show back to the child.
It's here, the custom is changed to sunnah.
Don't be because according to our custom to leave sunnah.
Sunnah is more important.
You don't lose your child's circumcision
Actually, they will be very grateful because their parents chose to circumcise them early.
How many mothers regret that they didn't regret because they didn't circumcise their children when they were little.
If something has been missed, it's okay. Continue to find the right time to circumcise your children. InsyaAllah it will be eased
Khitan has two times, mandatory time and sunnah time. The mandatory time is when the age of baligh, and the sunnah time is before. Ibnu Hajar the best time to do the circumcision is on the seventh day after birth and does not slow down the circumcision so that the time is mandatory unless there is a certain excuse or cause. (Fathul Bari 10/342).
Let's follow the sunnah :)
Thank God, the process of Taqi & Zaki circumcision is all made easy. I'm not awake either, live like normal days. Day 3 of our circumcision has gone on holiday in Terengganu.. hehe..
We are circumcised with Dr. Khairuddin at Taqwa clinic, Ipoh. Dr Khairuddin is very experienced. Her work is very thorough and neat.
Cost of only RM140 including medicine. It's pretty cheap than most normal places. If it's in KL Selangor area, we survey the price of about RM250- 400. That's what we do in Ipoh, save money! Hehe..
Time to circumcise the baby, Dr. Khairuddin shows the 'palat' that is inside the penis Taqi & Zaki, the doctor also said,
′′ Look, even the baby's palat has many like this, imagine if the 12-year-old is not circumcised anymore. Many have been accumulated in there ".
This is a piece of our experience. We were not able to follow the sunnah for Taqi & Zaki circumcision on the 7th day due to health and various matters. So we can only follow the sunnah to hurry to circumcise them.
Islam is very beautiful. There must be a lot of wisdom behind the sunnah circumcision when a baby.
Our children also look more macho and handsome when they're married 😎
Good morning..

baby name meaning 在 Rinozawa Youtube 的最佳解答
2013年8月25日/Y:1歳10ヶ月/R:4歳2ヶ月 There were a lot of pleasant things including a visit to a grave and the playing in the water on this day.
We talked about the Rino's friend (Yuna-chan) who came after playing in the water in front of a house.
The contents...
Yuna-chan invited Rino to a house of herself, but Rino refuses it for the reason of being shy.
A mom declined an invitation of Yuna-chan carefully then.
However, we asked her a meaning because we did not understand her real intention to be shyness.
It looked like she did not want to say very much, but she answered for the reason.
She seemed to be ashamed that she meet Yuna-chan's mom.
The feeling to visit to Yuna-chan's house, and to meet Yuna-chan's mom did not seem mental preparedness because she had never met. hahaha
We thought that the reason was pretty and interesting. LOL
