  1. (Welcome) 1 Chronicles 16:29 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering and come before him; worship the LORD in the splendour of his holiness.

  2. Theme:“We Have Come to Worship Christ the Lord” Matthew 2:1-12

  3. Matthew 2:1-12 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi [Traditionally Wise Men] from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.” When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Christ was to be born. “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:

  4. Matthew 2:1-12 “`But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will be the shepherd of my people Israel.’“ [Micah 5:2] Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and make a careful search for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.”

  5. Matthew 2:1-12 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshipped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold and of incense and of myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.

  6. 1. The Wise Men responded promptly to God’s revelation & the Holy Spirit’s leading.

  7. Numbers 24:17 “I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not near. A star will come out of Jacob; a sceptre will rise out of Israel. He will crush the foreheads of Moab, the skulls of all the sons of Sheth.”

  8. Micah 5:2,4 “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.” He will stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God. And they will live securely, for then his greatness will reach to the ends of the earth.

  9. 2. God will increasingly unveil Christ to those who seek Him

  10. Jeremiah 29:13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

  11. 3. Worship Jesus Christ, the Lord of Glory

  12. Isaiah 60:1,3 “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.”

  13. (Benediction) Psalm 62:6-7 He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I shall not be shaken. My salvation and my honour depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
