“Where is He that is born King of the Jews?” (Matthew 2:2)
One of the greatest questions ever asked is in our text. It is comparable to Pilate’s question, “What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ?” (Mathew 27:22) It is ranked with the Philippian jailer’s question, “What must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:30)
It was a good, honest question asked by the wise men when they came to Jerusalem looking for Jesus. It is still a good question.
He is no longer in the manger or on the cross or in the tomb. He is ascended into heaven and is seated at the right side of God the Father where, as our High Priest, He is making intercession for those that have received Him as their Savior. And He desires to be with us in our sorrow, our troubles and our daily lives.
Perhaps He is standing at the door of your heart, knocking, waiting for you to open the door and invite Him in. Where is He? Have you made room for this King of Kings and Lord of Lords? Don’t push Him aside. Let Him have control of your life.
