Messiah | Part 2: A Thousand Miles to Kneel

In this Christmas message, Pastor Hazen Stevens invites us to journey with the Magi—outsiders who traveled a thousand miles not just to witness a miracle, but to kneel before a King. The story of the manger reveals God’s humility and healing; the star reveals His authority and reign. We can’t stop at the stable—we must follow the light all the way to surrender. He came not only to heal but to rule. The question is: how far will you go to kneel?

Key Scriptures: Matthew 2:1–12, John 1:11–12, Matthew 16:25

Main Points:

1. The manger speaks of healing; the star declares authority

2. The Magi responded with surrender and costly worship

3. Herod resisted—clinging to control and self-rule

4. Every heart must decide: surrender or resistance

5. Jesus is Savior and Lord—He heals, and He reigns
