Behold The King - Ps. Samuel Deuth
from Awaken Church // AUDIO Hosted by Awaken Church
In this message, we look at the story of the Magi in Matthew 2 and discover what it truly means to encounter Jesus as King. The wise men recognized Jesus for who He really was—not just a baby, not just Mary and Joseph’s son, but the promised King revealed by heaven itself. We’re challenged to ask the same question Jesus later asked His disciples: “Who do you say that I am?” This message explores what shapes our view of Jesus—family, culture, experience, and media—and reminds us that our understanding must ultimately be shaped by His Word, His fruit, and His Spirit. We’re also reminded that the primary reason we come to Jesus and gather as the church is worship—to honor the King. Finally, we’re challenged by the Magi opening their treasures, learning that true worship always carries a cost, echoing David’s declaration that he would not offer to God what cost him nothing. This message calls us to see Jesus rightly, worship Him fully, and offer Him our very best.
