JESUS: LORD AT BIRTH



And the Magi came. It took them awhile to get there. Maybe as long as one or two years. But they were persistent in their quest. They were determined to see the Holy One.



When the church doors are opened on Sunday, we should have that same persistence. We should be on the lookout for the Holy One. When we miss worship service, we miss out on corporate worship. We deprive ourselves of a spiritual blessing.



The Magi saw. They saw Jesus. At His house. They didn't get there in time for the manger or grotto. But they saw the Lord of Lords as an infant. They came looking for hope, and they found Him.



When church doors are opened on Sunday, we can see Jesus. We see saints who are trying to live for God everyday. We see people struggling with life. But they come. Sunday after Sunday. If we come looking for hope through God's grace, there's a great possibility that we will find it. That we will be victorious in our quest.



The Magi worshipped. They fell on their knees. They brought gifts. Three gifts. One which was used for the dead. Foreshadowing the cross, for which He was sent.



When church doors are opened on Sunday, we can worship. We can experience the presence of God. We can make worship significant in our lives. We can give His tithes and our offerings. To demonstrate He is sovereign and to further the kingdom.



Yes, we are the Magi. Don't miss out like so many others at that time. And the present time. Come, let's adore Him.
