TOPIC: God’s Messages
“We have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him” (Matthew 2:2 NKJV).
You know, people see signs of God every day. Sunsets that steal the breath. Newborns that bring tears. But do all who see the signs draw near to God? No.
The wise men, however, understood the purpose of the sign. And they followed it to Jerusalem, where they heard about the scripture. The prophecy told them where to find Christ. It is interesting to note that the star reappeared after they learned about the prophecy. The star “came and stood shining right over the place where the Child was” (Matthew 2:9). It is as if the sign and word worked together to bring the wise men to Jesus.
The ultimate aim of all God’s messages, both miraculous and written, is to shed the light of heaven on Jesus.
