MATTHEW 2:1–12; PSALM 95:6
Many manger scenes depict the wise men, or magi, visiting Jesus in Bethlehem alongside the shepherds. However, the gospel of Matthew suggests they visited later. Jesus was found in a house, where they worshipped him. They then opened their treasures and presented him with gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Realising that the magi’s visit happened later than we may think provides a helpful reminder that Jesus is always worthy of worship, and even after the holidays, we still have someone to celebrate.
Jesus Christ is always with us and has promised to be with us in every season. We can worship Him daily and trust His faithfulness in the years to come. Just as the magi sought Him, we should seek Him and worship Him wherever we are.
🙏 Lord Jesus, help us to always seek you and offer our worship.
