Wise Men and the first GPS











The star that led the Wise Men to the inn at Bethlehem was probably the first ever recorded Global Positioning Satellite.
The Wise Men were not guided by a map or a dash-board compass but by something IN THE SKY.
They had studied, conferred and then concluded that a  momentous event was about to take place in Palestine and that they had better not miss it.
When they obeyed their inward prompting and set out, God put the G.P.S. in place and, BINGO, they were right on time and right on target at the birth of Jesus.
I have a G.P.S. in my car. Pauline calls it DORA. This lady's voice has got us to our destination many times, BUT there have been occasions when she has been wrong.
God NEVER is and never will be.He is ALWAYS RIGHT.
We have His Word to study. We have others with whom to confer.
We have the gift of His Holy Spirit to inwardly teach us. If we are truly wise, we will add our OBEDIENCE to His Voice and we will get safely to Heaven. Right on time. Right on target. BINGO.

Jubilate.
