Invited To The Stable: A 6-Day Family Advent Devotionalنموونە

When we read about the wise men, we remember that Jesus is our king who deserves our worship. The wise men lived far away from Jesus, but they saw a star that God had put in the sky to announce Jesus’ birth, so they came to see Jesus. They knew that, even though he was born in an animal barn to poor parents, Jesus was a king who deserved worship and gifts. The wise men came to worship Jesus as King. Jesus is the King who will rule forever, as God promised to King David in 2 Samuel 7. Jesus is the true King who is worthy of all our worship.

Questions: 

• Why did the wise men visit Jesus? 
• Why do you think they brought presents? 
• When we go to church on Sundays, how is that similar to what the wise men did when they visited Jesus?
