Matthew 2:2 NCV “They asked, “Where is the baby who was born to be the king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.”
Orion’s constellation can easily be found in the sky from November to February. For observers in the northern hemisphere, the constellation lies in the southwestern sky. To the east, the line of Orion’s Belt points toward Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, located in Canis Major constellation. (Constellation Guide, Orion’s Belt)
Isn’t it food for thought that the only time we can view this particular constellation is the months circling Christ’s birth? In many myths and legends it is believed that the 3 stars of Orion’s Belt represent the 3 Kings who traveled from countries far, far away just to worship the baby king.
Genesis 1:14-17 NCV “Then God said let there be light in the sky to seperate day from night. These lights will be used for signs, seasons, days, and years. They will be in the sky to give light to the earth.” And it happened. So God made the two large lights. He made the brighter light to rule the day And made the smaller light to rule the night. He also made the stars. God put all these in the sky to shine on the earth, to rule over day and over the night, and to separate the light from darkness.
Isaiah 13:10 NIV “The stars of heaven and their constellations will not show their light. The rising sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light.”
It feels like the darkness is growing stronger everyday. We live in so much hatred, violence, anger, speed, mistrust, killing and death. There’s a virus that has shut our world down and caused us all to hide in our homes and behind masks. Fear seem to be running rapid and winning!!!
Isaiah 41:10 NLT “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged because I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”
John 8:12 NIV “When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Is your world dark? Is it dimmer then it used to be? Then you might possibly need to plug into your personal light source, Jesus Christ. If you know him, then look up and ask for help back into his grace and light. Start a conversation with him, talk to him about your darkness, ask for a renewed fire and then pick up your bible and climb in!
If you do not know the Lord personally it’s a simple prayer: Father God, I need your son Jesus in my life. I am a sinner and want out of the darkness. Please forgive me of my sins, Lord Jesus come into my life and fill me with your love and light. That I may grow to know you and walk knowing I get to spend eternity with you after this earthly life passes. In your name I pray, Thank you, Amen
