Worship the King



The Wise Men in the Christmas story teach each of us a powerful testimony in the Christian walk of life; for these men demonstrate traits we should try to imitate: those of humility, worship and giving.

In the Bible it is written in (Matthew 2: 11)  “ And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.

One commentary I read on the internet had this to say about these men. It said:

“When we seek God with sincere determination, we will find him. He is not hiding from us, but wants to have an intimate relationship with each of us. These wise men paid Jesus the kind of respect only God deserves, bowing before him and worshiping him. Jesus is not just a great teacher or admirable person as many people say today, but the Son of the Living God. After the Three Kings met Jesus, they did not go back the way they came. When we get to know Jesus Christ, we are changed forever and cannot go back to our old life.”
This Sunday we will have an opportunity to come to Daniels Chapel Church for another Lord’s Day of worship and praise. Over and over I cannot thank God enough for the wonderful year it has been at the Church and for the souls that have been saved and the new faces that continue to walk through our doors for the Church’s many programs, ministries and discipleship opportunities. This Advent season has been one of the best and we look forward to gathering Sunday morning and evening to praise and thank Jesus Christ for His birth!! What I want to impress upon you today is that this is another great time to “Worship the King!!”
During the services Sunday we will receive our annual Christmas offering. Our goal this year is $25,000. Let us come before God Sunday as the wise men came to Jesus Christ. Please prayerfully consider bringing the biggest offering to God you can for we can never out give God nor thank Him enough for salvation. As well the Church depends upon your presence, utilization of your talents and the giving of His Tithes and our Offerings to help meet the budget and plan for short and long term goals in all areas of the Church.  
In closing I am happy to share with you another great fact in that God will be here Sunday morning and evening for Jesus is NOT hiding from our problems; for He is the One true solution and we should come to worship and honor Him!! In respect to God, let us humbly come to Church with sincere and loving hearts to not just worship our new-born King but to bring Christ and His Church a special offering of gratitude and thanksgiving.
