Strength l Isaiah 40:27-31l Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

🌟 The magi, often mistaken for kings, were actually wise men or astrologists from Persia. They believed a new star signaled the birth of the Jewish Messiah. Contrary to popular beliefs, they didn’t visit on the night of Jesus’ birth but much later. Their significance lies in representing the Gentiles and the revelation of God’s plan to the non-Jewish world. The journey of the magi is paralleled with Isaiah’s message about waiting actively for the Lord. The key word is “wait,” which means actively searching and expecting. The story emphasizes the importance of seeking God’s revelation, renewing strength, and finding hope. 🌠
