TODAY’S TURNING POINT WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH 10TH DECEMBER 2025 DAILY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional – 10th December 2025, Wednesday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: One of Us
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.
2 Corinthians 8:9
RECOMMENDED READING
Philippians 2:5-8
What did Jesus Christ look like? Did He have the appearance of royalty like Israel’s first (Saul) and second (David) kings did (1 Samuel 9:2; 16:12)?
The Bible doesn’t describe Jesus’ appearance, but when the prophet Isaiah described the coming Messiah, the description was less royal and more common.
Using the descriptive words of The Message paraphrase, Jesus entered the world as “a scrawny seedling, a scrubby plant in a parched field.” He was not “attractive,” a person to whom we wouldn’t give “a second look.” He was “looked down on and passed over”; indeed, people “turned away” from Him (Isaiah 53:2-3). In other words, if you had passed Jesus on a crowded first- century street, you likely would have walked right by.
Paul makes it clear that Jesus left royalty behind and embraced poverty when He entered our world (Philippians 2:5-8). He became poor that we might become rich. Jesus welcomes us, the common man and woman, because He became one of us.
Thank God today that Jesus gave up royalty so that you might become spiritually rich in Him.

A Christian’s life is full of mysteries; poor, and yet rich.
