You don't have to be a religious expert to honor Jesus as your king either. Jesus isn't just for those who already know a lot about the Bible. Those who know the Bible should love Jesus and adore him of course but they're not the only ones.
The story of the Christmas star and the Magi shows that those who don't yet know much of the Bible are called by God to bow before Jesus and find in him the answer to their questions, the goal of their search and the satisfaction for their deepest longings.
The Christmas star shows us that Jesus is for people of every nation and religious background. The Christmas star shows us that no matter how our spiritual search begins, we must eventually look to the Bible for answers, and our search will end only when we bow before King Jesus and give ourselves to him.
Long before Jesus was born a prophet said, "A star will come out of Jacob, a scepter will rise out of Israel" (Numbers 24:17). Another prophet said, "Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn" (Isaiah 60:3). That prophet then spoke of camels and people coming from the east, "bearing gold and incense and proclaiming the praise of the Lord" (Isaiah 60:6). Those ancient predictions became fact. The Christmas Star 'Jesus Christ' came to earth announced by a Christmas star in the sky. The light of the world attracted people from far off nations who brought gifts of gold and incense and myrrh. They also brought the gift of themselves falling down in joy and adoration and love and worshiping the newborn king.
Right now Jesus is speaking to you. He says in the words of Scripture, "I, Jesus, am the bright Morning Star" (Revelation 22:16). "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life" (John 8:12). Are you being drawn to his light? Do you seek Jesus and worship him and seek to become like him?
The Magi were among the first to worship Jesus but they're not the last. Right now you can join them. Follow the Christmas star to Jesus. Get on your knees in prayer. Worship the Lord Jesus Christ and acknowledge him as your king. Then become a star that points others to Jesus. As the Bible puts it, "Shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life" (Philippians 2:15-16).
