12 Days of Christmas Devotion (December 28th, day 4)
James 2:1
"My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of Glory."

Partiality, the sin of treating people differently due to their outward appearance, status, or usefulness - this was a thing back in James' day and remains an issue today.

In His life and ministry, Jesus displayed how impartiality ought to look. He was willing to allow a woman of ill repute to weep over Him and for her tears to wash His feet (Luke 7:36-50). And He was willing to call a rich man down from a tree to take Him to his house (Luke 19:1-10). Why? Because He knew that great wealth and worldly honor do not and cannot make someone more valuable in God's eyes.

When we grasp the wonder of this reality, we begin to see the true ugliness of judging others on the basis of the external and superficial. Partiality should have no place among the people of God because if we know God at all, it is because "he dealt with us impartially".

12 Days of Christmas Devotion (December 27th, day 3)
Matthew 2:11
"Going into the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then opening their treasures, they offered him gifts, gold, frankincense and myrrh."

When the wise men or Magi finally made it to the place where Jesus was...their response was an instinct as much as it was appropriate. The wisemen fell down and worshiped Jesus.

Today, whatever mechanism God may use to trigger our thoughts and curiosity of the truth...Whenever God brings us to Jesus we won't show up full of pride, arrogance and worldly knowledge. No, when our eyes are opened to the majesty of King Jesus, we bow before Him in humility, wonder and awe.

As we study the Word of God we realize that mere knowledge of Jesus is insufficient - the only right response is worship, laying before Him, giving the best of all that you have: your time, your possessions, your heart???

You know you understand the first Christmas if you have realized there is a God and He is at work... If you have bowed before Jesus asked Jesus into your heart...now offer Him your life daily.
