Looking to Worship Jesus Christ
After the birth of Christ, we hear the testimony of those who awaited His appearance. Can you imagine their response as they saw the Ancient of Days as a humbled babe?!
SCRIPTURE: "Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king,
behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, 2 saying, 'Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.' 3 When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. 5 So they said to him, 'In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet: 6 ‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, Are not the least among the rulers of Judah; For out of you shall come a Ruler Who will shepherd My people Israel.’ ” 7 Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared. 8 And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, 'Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also.' 9 When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. 11 And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 12 Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way." Matthew 2: 1-12

To worship Jesus, my intention must be to look for Him,
I’ve heard about His deity, but I rather experience them.
The evil one and leaders of the culture also acknowledge His name,
However, they intend to sabotage His ministry and call Him to shame.
Despite the worldly pushback, prophecy will prevail,
Christ is Lord, Christ will return, and believers and unbelievers will hail.
You were born to represent my quality and destiny for life, forever,
You have been my savior, hope, sacrificial lamb, and intercessor.
Yet, my road over the years has been full of obstacles, challenges, and trials,
My Lord has delivered and preserved me to ensure my life will be worthwhile.
So, I seek to worship Him, He is worthy,
He is responsible for my blessed and highly favored journey.
I am grateful for the birth of Jesus, but even more grateful He is still alive,
I look to worship Him daily through my heart, body, soul, and mind.
Where there is love, where there is light, where there is change,
There is salvation, hope, and encouragement, in Jesus's name.
So, I will continue to look for You, as the prophecy unfolds,
The details of the Old and New Testament’s truth lives, endures, and holds.
Therefore, as I stand in Your presence, I submit my life at Your feet,
As predicted, you came, will come again, and I will look until we meet.
Prayer: Lord! You are worthy! I praise Your name! Worthy is the Lamb! There is none like You! I’ve searched, yet there is nobody greater. I will forever praise Your name. In the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ!
