Intresting Facts about Magi... !!!

INTRESTING FACTS ABOUT MAGI:

1. Jesus, the Messiah was born in Bethlehem, Judea and the people in Israel were ignorant of the fact, but the magi were able to recognise that a King has been born from a far just by seeing the star.

2. They were ready to travel miles just to see the King, so the Star guided them directly to Jesus.
(Daniel 12 :3 ~ They that lead others to salvation will shine like stars forever...
Revelation 22: 16 ~ Jesus, the Bright Morning Star 🌟⭐)

3.  Though they had travelled miles with the thought and expectation of seeing a king, they did not doubt on seeing Jesus in a manger. But, rather they bowed down and worshipped Him.

4.  When they were warned by God in a dream to travel by a different route, they were ready to disobey even the king...

Things to Ponder on 🤔🤔🤔:
1.  Am I able to recognise and accept God's plan or will when the circumstances do not look like it???

2.  Like the star am I leading others to Jesus??? Am I reflecting Christ, so that others may be drawn to Him.???

3.  Am I ready to go aginst the people in authority if God asks me to...???

The Empty Stone Water Jars!!!

THE EMPTY STONE WATER JARS!!! "Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.  Jesus said to the servants,   “Fill the jars with water” ; so they filled them to the brim." John 2: 6,7. In John 2:6, we read that the purpose of the stone water jars was to hold water for the ceremonial washing in the wedding house. The jars did not fulfill the purpose of holding water, but were empty. We might feel that our lives r like the water jars kept aside, empty, unnoticed and ignored by people and without any purpose..  "God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong." 1 Corinthians 1:27. When the pots were unnoticed by people, God's amazing eyes feel on the pots. The pots which were empty and were supposed to carry water were filled with wine and distributed to all the Guests in the wedding ceremon...

What do U want me to do Lord???

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO LORD??? God has specific plans and purpose for each individual. He has created each one of us in a unique way in His image, to be a channel of blessing to many. Many a times, we never realize the plan of God. "What do you want me to do Lord?" was the question asked by Saul during His first encounter with God (Acts 22:10, Acts 9:6). Maybe that was the turning point in His life!!!  God gave him a clear cut directions and used him as a instrument to carry His name before the Gentiles, Kings & Children of Israel. 👉 Paul was submissive to God's calling 👉 Had great zeal to do God's bidding 👉 Was ready to suffer for Christ... Things to Ponder: 1. Am I seeking God's will? 2. Am I submissive to His calling??

Lack of PaTiEnCe :(

We are living in a busy world where we do not have time to even smile at our neighbours or even speak to God :( God desires & longs to speak with us, but we have no time for Him. In Gal 5:22, we read that the fruit of the Spirit includes PATIENCE... Many a times when we lose the important characteristic we tend to lose the blessings of God... Saul was the first King chosen by God to lead the Israelites. In 1 Samuel 13, we read that the Philistines had gathered for war against Israel, as Samuel delayed in coming Saul offered the burnt offerings by himself in place of Saul. Intention: The intention of Saul was good. He desired to seek God before going to war. Circumstance: 1. The Philistines had gathered for war at Mikmash 2. The men (soldiers) were scattering 3. Samuel arrived late. Result: The kingdom left His hand as God had chosen a man after His own heart to rule His people. Like Saul don't look at the circumstances. You may face problems like the raging storms...
