THEME: WISE MEN SEEK JESUS.
MEMORY VERSE:
“For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”
Matthew 7:8.
TODAY’S TEXT:
Matthew 2:1-2.
“Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
From time immemorial, wise men are known to be knowledgeable, wise, spiritual and haven foresight of what the future holds. The more reason, men and women consult them for assistance then.
More so, Esther 1:13, revealed thus: “Then the king said to the wise men, *which knew the times, for so was the king’s manner toward all that knew law and judgment:* i.e, wise men knew the times, the law and judgment. Nonetheless, with their acquisition they still have to seek Jesus, a greater power and influence.
Notwithstanding, in life, we all have ability to perform one special act or the other, but when you see someone better, it is good to seek for more information.
And yesterday we concluded by saying, ‘the stars indeed, are those that ensures that their works, brings glory to God and benefits others.’
However, our memory verse expressly stated that, _”For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”_ Dear friend, this great opportunity is still available to all men and women of understanding, irrespective of their tribe or class.
Furthermore, Matthew 2:10 says, *”When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.”* As Christians, we are expected to rejoice, as people who have had an encounter with Jesus; the greater star.
Finally, beloved in Christ Jesus, just like the wise men seek Jesus, let’s seek Him, in truth and in spirit, when we can find Him.(Deuteronomy 4:29) May you find Jesus, as you seek Him today in truth and in spirit. Amen.
God bless you. *Jesus is coming very soon.* Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
I will seek Jesus always. With Him on my side, I will be wise in my dealings.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, help me to seek you always, may I not seek another god. Holy Spirit divine, empower me to uphold the truth of the word of God, all the days of my life in Jesus name. Amen.
