What Will Your Gift Be?

Matt 2:2 Saying Where is he that is born King of the Jews?

I love this time of year where we celebrate Christ's birth. We have two more day until we celebrate the birth of our Lord. Many during this time will have family that come from out of town, or they will leave to see family. We probably all have our Christmas trees and decorations up, and hopefully today many will go to the House of God this morning. We have the wise men in this passage of scripture that are seeking the Christ child. They go about searching and they find him with his mother mary. There are some things we see from the wise men first they fell down and worshipped him. If there is one thing we must do this season is we must find time to worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is worthy to be worshipped this morning. They also did something else they gave him gifts in the passage of Scripture. The wise men each brought him a gift. The First Gift was that of Gold. This represents that he is the king. Even though he came as a little baby he was still the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He was still God in the flesh. The Second Gift was Frankensciene this represents his priesthood. I am so thankful that we have a high priest this morning. I am thankful that he took is blood to God the Father and it satisfied the demands of a Holy God, and we can be washed in that blood. Lastly we have myrhh and we know this represents that he came to die. He was Born to Die that we might live. Now with that all said What will your gift be to our Lord and Saviour? I know what he wants from us this year more than anything. He wants our life. He wants to be in control. When we get saved we give the Lord our heart, but sometime after we get saved we take back our life and do our own thing. We find in Romans 12:1 our reasonable service is presenting our lives a living sacrifice. He wants 100 percent of me and if he doesn't have 100 percent then I am not truly right with God. Let me asked this question in closing Does he have your desires and dreams this morning? Does he lead your direction this morning, or our you in control. Why don't you give him what he has wanted for years now. Give him your life so he can do what he wants with you.

I hope this post is a challenge to our heart to see if he has us this morning. I want to wish all those that come to this site a Merry Christmas. We will be leaving to go to my wifes parents tonight after service. Please pray for us to have safety, we can't wait to get home. God Bless You this Christmas Season.
