TOPIC : DO YOU REALLY KNOW JESUS
TEXT : MATHEW 2 : 1-6
1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
Who is this Jesus?
Is Jesus one of the dead prophets?
Was Jesus a man that discovered another religion?
When you discover Jesus by revelation, you will never forsake him
Apostle Paul was armed with a letter to arrest and bring the followers of Jesus to Jerusalem for destruction.
In Acts 9 the Bible told us how the resurrected Jesus confronted and arrested Apostle Paul the arrestor.
Apostle Paul said in Acts 13-15
13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.
14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
You can't encounter Jesus and still doubt His divinity.
People still have personal encounters of Jesus Christ.
Today, pray and say; Jesus please reveal yourself to me.
He surely will.
Today as you celebrate, may you receive a revelation of who Christ really is.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled weekend in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them our devotionals)
