Matthew 2:1-2
"After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the One who has been born King of the Jews? We saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.”"
MANY HAVE SPECULATED AS TO WHO THE MAGI WERE! (Not much is known about them.)
ALTHOUGH THE BIBLE DOES NOT SPECIFICALLY CALL THEM BY NAME, GOD DOES GIVE THEM A VERY INTERESTING TITLE, HE CHOSE TO CALL THEM "WISE MEN"...
Have you ever wondered WHY?
I believe God wants to extend that same honor to each one of us!
God is calling us to be WISE MEN!!!
I know you may be thinking to yourself right now that the Magi were given a special honor to see Jesus in His infant stage & YES, this is true!
But that did not cause them to inherit the title of WISE MEN!
THEIR WISDOM WAS DISPLAYED WHEN THEY RECOGNIZED JESUS AS KING & WORSHIPPED HIM!!!
TODAY, we are given the honor of seeing Jesus as THE GLORIFIED SAVIOR OF THE WORLD!
IN THIS CHRISTMAS SEASON, WE CELEBRATE JESUS' BIRTHDAY!
Here is your chance to inherit the title of WISE MEN!
"THIS SEASON, A PERSON'S WISDOM WILL BE DISPLAYED BY WHERE THEIR FOCUS IS PLACED!!!"
"CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT CHRIST!!!"
"OH COME, LET US ADORE HIM!!!"
