you fools… you got the wrong baby again!!!
Once upon a time in Bethlehem, a King found himself in a state of distress, laced with grief and confusion. He questioned why three wealthy, wise, and influential men from the East would come to his city.
Not only did the wise men inquire about a newborn king, but they also presented valuable gifts to the child. Herod, the king, became enraged when he learned that they had come to worship the baby, as if he were a god.
King Herod could not help but considered over and over again why great men will come to worship a new born. Could it be that a deity is about to take over his stronghold?
King Herod humiliated himself by being unable to sleep after the arrival of a baby in the city he ruled with an iron fist. He must have been told in the dark room that the baby must die. So, he was determined to eliminate this perceived threat. He plotted to have the baby killed by any means necessary.
Despite the king’s efforts, his men were unable to locate the child, leading them to question how strangers from afar could find Him when they could not.
During his search, King Herod commanded the massacre of all infants in the kingdom of Judea, fearing the arrival of a new king and kingdom within his borders. Little did he know that the sovereignty of the Lord Jesus, the Christ, whom the wise men sought out, transcends earthly boundaries and extends far beyond the reaches of the known world.
The forces of darkness sensed the coming of the savior of the Earth, but they were powerless to stop him.
They were not so sure but suspected that through the birth of this child an offspring of powerful and authoritative men were soon to be unveiled on earth.
Little did they know that these individuals would be entrusted with the keys to the kingdom of God, allowing them to make decisions on earth that would be supported by heavenly powers.
The mission of The Lord Jesus was of great importance, which is why he needed to deliver His message before departing the world according to the will of God. Even from birth, no army could capture him. He was kept safe under the protection of God until the appointed time arrived.
In the light of this Truth, the darkness trembles at the Unparalleled Majesty of Lord Jesus the Christ.
