Matthew 2 shows a King who is worshiped by nations and opposed by pride. It shows a Father who protects His Son and fulfills every word spoken centuries before. It shows that even in sorrow, redemption is moving forward.

Read carefully.
Follow the thread of prophecy.
Examine your response to the King.

Christ is revealed as sovereign, promised, protected, and worthy of worship.
