finding…….c H r I s t M a s(Week 3)Matthew 2:1-12“Wise Men Still Seek Him”
Over the past few weeks we have been studying the journeys of all those whom God called to the manger in Bethlehem. They came from different backgrounds and different walks of life, but they were all called by God Himself to the same place, to find… Him. As Believers, we too have been called on a spiritual journey that will end with us standing in the very presence of our LORD Jesus. God has invited us all on this journey. Just like those in “The Christmas Story”, we have all come from different backgrounds and different walks of life to find… Him. How sad it is that many will refuse to take this journey of faith, because they love the things of this world more than they long to see the face of Jesus. Nothing can ever compare with finding… Him!

Remember that one? We sang it every Christmas, but to be completely honest with you, I had no earthly idea what a “Noel” was! I always thought it was “Leon” spelled backwards, but come to think of it, that didn’t make any sense either! Noel is actually a French word that has come to mean “Christmas”. But, it was originally derived from a word meaning new birth. In the context of the old hymn, it means the very first announcement of the “new birth” of the Christ Child was given to some poor and lowly shepherds, who were keeping their flocks in the fields that were adjoining the tiny city of Bethlehem. Have you ever really stopped to think that God, in His infinite wisdom, chose some poor and lowly shepherds to be the first to know that The King of Kings and Lord of Lords had just made his entrance into this weary world? It wasn’t the “rich or famous”, nor the “movers and shakers” that received “that first Noel”, but rather God wanted a group of “social outcasts” to be told first that a Savior had come.

Think about it for a moment; Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, David, Daniel and the entire nation of Israel, just to name a few. All were sent out into some type of “wilderness” of God’s choosing. They were required to leave behind all that they knew, and with which they were familiar, and sent to places where only God could sustain them. I believe that there is a spiritual truth that we should glean from this. In his famous devotional book, Experiencing God, Henry Blackaby makes a statement that I have always thought to have profound significance. He said, “You cannot stay where you are and go with God.” Sounds simple doesn’t it?
