Behold Your King, Day 20: The Nations Belong to the King

Today’s episode traces the journey of the wise men in Matthew 2 and reveals how their worship marks the beginning of Christ’s global mission. Rooted in the promise of Psalm 2—that the nations are the heritage of God’s Son—this reading highlights how the Magi’s allegiance foreshadows the worldwide spread of the gospel. Their encounter with Jesus leads them back to their homeland carrying news of a newborn King, modeling the outward movement Christ later commands in the Great Commission. Because of King Jesus, we go as His ambassadors, sharing the message of reconciliation that turns former enemies into friends and welcomes all peoples into His kingdom.
