And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh (Matthew 2:11).
Do you offer God your best?
Genesis 4 gives us a contrast between two brothers. Cain brings his offering “in the process of time” (Genesis 4:3), which means at the end of time. When the deadline arrives, Cain fulfills his obligation and nothing more. Yet by faith, Abel presents to God a sacrificial gift. The writer of Hebrews says, “By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain” (Hebrews 11:4). In a similar fashion, the wise men travel as long as two years to bring their costly gifts to Jesus. They recognize who Jesus is and honor Him in a worthy manner. It should be noted that every time Jesus and Mary are mentioned together in Matthew 2, Jesus is named first (Matthew 2:11, 13, 14, 20, 21). Truly wise men still seek Him and offer Him their best gifts.
Employment Point: Offer worthy sacrifices to Jesus through faith.
