The Magi... Matthew 2:1-12

Dec 21, 2025    Kent Smith

This message about the Magi from Matthew 2:1–12 explores the example of the Magi and what their journey teaches us about living wisely before God. The Magi noticed the star and rightly perceived its significance, made Christ their priority, and persisted in seeking Him despite obstacles. When they arrived, they were fully present, humbly worshiped Jesus, and offered Him their best gifts. Finally, they demonstrated prudence by obeying God’s warning and choosing a different path home. Their story reminds us that true wisdom is not merely knowledge, but a life marked by attentiveness to God, faithful pursuit, humble worship, generous surrender, and obedient decision-making.
