Inclement weather. Traffic snarls. Detours. Flights canceled. Roads closed. As the song goes, "Gee, the traffic is terrific".  But it's always been that way.  Just ask Joseph.  And check with the Wise Men. There will be changes to our plans and detours in the year ahead.  However, one thing is certain through it all.  With the birth of Jesus, Immanuel, we can take heart and look ahead with confidence – God is with us.

...There Came Wise Men... | Matthew 2:1 | 28 December 2025 - Sunday Morning | Dr. Brad Weniger, Pastor

How did the "Wisemen" understand the story of our savior? Lets listen to what their perspective would have been.

Pastor Brian Lee preaches from the book of Matthew with the message of the Wise Men at Petra Baptist Church in Saint Augustine, Florida.

In this message, Pastor Dean Infinger unravels the incredible journey of the Magi—the mysterious wise men who traveled great distances, navigated a treacherous political landscape under King Herod, and followed a single star to worship the newborn King. Discover the courage, faith, and transformative sacrifice of these seekers, and learn how their quest for truth holds powerful lessons for your own journey today.

Revisit the familiar story of the Wise Men through three powerful images from the story in Matthew's Gospel: the Star, the Sword, and the Shepherd-King. Together, they help us see—perhaps with fresh eyes—the true glory of who Jesus is: the Cosmic Jewish King for all nations. Though opposed by evil and human rebellion, He triumps through sacrifical love, ultimately giving His life on the cross. Whether you come as a follower of Christ or are still exploring faith, this message invites you—like the Wise Men—to receive Jesus as your King and respond with faith, joy, and worship. This message was preached by Pastor Dan McIntosh on December 24, 2025.

Christmas Through the Eyes of Series by Pastor Jason Duff The post Christmas Through the Eyes of The Wise Men – Matthew 2:1-12 appeared first on Calvary Vista.

Kyle Kauffman | Dec 28 2025 When you look at Jesus, what do you see? Do you see a King who deserves to be worshipped with everything you have? Or do you see threat to your way of life and your control over things? The journey and response of the wise men who came to meet Jesus after his birth challenge us to see Jesus not only as a baby in a manger, but as the King God promised to rule over all people. Unlike Herod, who saw Jesus as a threat to his throne, the wise men responded with worship—marked by joy, devotion, and costly gifts. Their story is meant to confront our hearts: will we cling to our personal kingdoms, or bow before the one true King? The wise men also discovered that Jesus is unlike any earthly ruler. He comes gently, for the weak and lowly, and reigns with compassion like a shepherd. At Christmas, we're invited to follow the wise men's example to see and submit to Jesus as our King and give ourselves fully to Him in joyful worship.

Join me and Scott as we take a look at the arrival of the "Wise Men" or Magi at the home of Jesus. Are they really wise? How did they know? Why would God allow such suffering to result from Jesus' birth? Let's explore these thoughts together. #godslove #faith #faithinchrist #christmas #christmasstory #wisemen #magi #christisking #godisincontrol #godhasaplan

By now, we're all pretty familiar with the classical manger Nativity scene. The baby Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Shepherds, and Wise Men. While the addition of the 'Wise Men' doesn't seem so odd or important to us today, to Matthew's audience, it would have been a radical proclamation that not only is this baby Jesus King of the Jews, but he is the King of the World. - Pastor Arek O'ConnellSupport the show

Why did Matthew mention the wise men? Let's find out together as we read Matthew 2:1-12

LoveTalk Network's fourth and final installment of the 2025 Christmas series brings together Mary’s surrender, Joseph’s courageous obedience, the shepherds’ witness, and the Magi’s devoted search to find the Baby Jesus and honor Him with gifts. God spoke through angels and dreams, but always affirmed His will through prophecy, making it clear that Jesus’ birth was part of a divine, ancient plan. From humble shepherds to foreign Wise Men, God ensured that people of every status, background, and nation were invited to seek and worship the newborn King. The Magi’s journey, gifts, and obedience—along with God’s provision for Joseph, Mary, and Jesus through those gifts—demonstrate that while God’s instructions may be difficult or frightening, He always provides a way.

337 – Let the light of Christmas shine brightOne of the major themes at Christmas time is the light of Christ shining into a dark world. In fact the Christmas story has all kinds of light in it. There's the star that appears to the Wisemen from the East. There's the glory of God shining on the shepherds as the angels talk to them. And most important of all is the birth of Jesus, who came as the Light of the world.But Jesus didn't come just for us to be passive recipients of his light. He wanted us to follow his example of bringing light to the darkness of fear, disease, despair, and sin. He even said we are also the light of the world.And that's what this episode is about, being the light and letting your light shine out into the darkness this Christmas, and beyond. ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞SHOW NOTES: For a full transcript and Bible quotes, go to thebiblespeakstoyou.com/337Spotify Christmas PlaylistText me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.

What does it really mean to worship wisely?In Matthew 2, the Wise Men show us that worship is not accidental—it's intentional, costly, and rooted in wisdom. They didn't allow distance, discomfort, or danger to keep them from encountering Jesus. Instead, they followed the leading of the Holy Spirit, searched the Scriptures, and responded with humble obedience.In this message, we learn that:• Wise worship seeks Jesus intentionally• Wise worship responds to divine direction• Wise worship brings God our very bestThe gifts they brought (gold, frankincense, and myrrh) weren't random. They revealed who Jesus is: King, Holy, and Savior. True worship still requires that same understanding today.Our worship, our resources, and our lives belong to Him.Scripture References:• Matthew 2:1–11• Numbers 24:17• Micah 5:2• Philippians 3:12Be encouraged to approach God with wisdom, humility, and wholehearted worship—because when we bow before Him, we align our lives with His purpose.

Matthew 2:7–12 - Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time the star had appeared. [8] And he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and worship him.” [9] After listening to the king, they went on their way. And behold, the star that they had seen when it rose went before them until it came to rest over the place where the child was. [10] When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. [11] And going into the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh. [12] And being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed to their own country by another way. (ESV) THE EVENING MINDSET IS COMING!

The story of the wise men in Matthew 2 presents us with a crucial question: Who is truly ruling your life? These historical figures weren't Jewish, yet they traveled hundreds of miles following a star to find the newborn King. Their journey reveals that wise people are seekers who actively pursue God. When they found Jesus, they responded with worship and overwhelming joy, unlike King Herod who felt threatened by the true King. The wise men's encounter was transforming - they bowed in worship, received divine guidance, and went home by a different route. Their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh acknowledged Jesus as King, God, and crucified Savior, representing the complete picture of who Christ is.

God is always working to guide your life, ordering every step long before you see the need. Drawing from the journey of the Wise Men, this message reveals how God can use even your darkest seasons to lead you directly to His presence.To hear more inspiring messages from Jentezen Franklin, visit http://jentezenfranklin.org/watch?cid=sm-yt & subscribe to this channel: http://goo.gl/yfkXHy Tell us more about what's going on in your life:Let us pray with you: https://jentezenfranklin.org/contact?f=Prayer&?cid=sm-yt Share your testimony to encourage us and others: https://jentezenfranklin.org/contact?f=Story&?cid=sm-yt See our outreach programs: https://jentezenfranklin.org/outreach/?cid=sm-ytStay Connected to Jentezen Franklin:https://www.instagram.com/jentezen https://twitter.com/jentezen https://www.facebook.com/JentezenFranklinDonate to help us share the gospel around the world through Kingdom Connection broadcasts and other humanitarian outreaches: https://jentezenfranklin.org/donations/new?cid=sm-yt#jentezenfranklin #pastorjentezen #jentezenfranklinsermons

Matthew 2:1–8 - 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 saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” [3] When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him; [4] and assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. [5] They told him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it is written by the prophet: [6] “‘And you, O Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’” [7] Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time the star had appeared. [8] And he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and worship him.” (ESV) THE EVENING MINDSET IS COMING!

One of the most intriguing elements of the Christmas story is that of the wise men, who see a mysterious star and set out on a journey that ultimately leads them to worship Jesus. In this week's message from Matthew 2, Pastor J.D. gives us a snapshot of various responses to the birth of Jesus, all of which are still seen in different degrees today. Just as God used a sign to lead the wise men to the Savior, he continues to meet us where we are and draw us to himself. The only question is if we will respond to Jesus' birth as the wise men did, with joy upon joy upon joy.
