DCLM Daily Manna 25 December 2021 Devotional | MESSAGE:
In 1919, a 14-year-old teenage Arab prince was dispatched from the deserts of Arabia to London by his warrior father on a high diplomatic mission to secure the formation of his country. The task involved high-level negotiations with prominent individuals and making of friends with influential politicians to guide him through the corridors of power.
In like manner, Christ was sent from heaven to the earth to secure the formation of God’s kingdom in our hearts. His tasks entailed confronting the religious powers of His days and raising an army among common men to walk through the corridors of influential men to establish His Church. His birth was heralded with a bold banner headline news in Palestine – Born a King.
This piece of news caused different reactions. The Wise Men from the Far East were expectant and excited. They travelled hundreds of miles to see the King of the Jews. When they finally found Him, they responded with joy, worship and gifts. Herod and the people of Jerusalem were troubled, suspicious that someone would come and overthrow him. Therefore, he plotted the death of Christ. Most Jews expected the Messiah to be a great military and political deliverer in Bethlehem.
But, when He was born, these same religious leaders became His avowed enemies while angels celebrated. This was no ordinary birth. Jesus was born a King. His birth was to establish the kingdom of God on earth. The wise men from faraway lands recognised Him as the King and Messiah but most people in Israel did not. They came to look for Jesus. Today, people expect God to be looking for them. But those who are wise still seek Jesus today!
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Wise men still seek Jesus today.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Revelation 4-6
