Will You Risk Everything To Bring Jesus Something? by DR. CALEB COOPER for Charisma News
2020 will close out with a rare star in the sky today, Dec. 21, at sunset. This star is being called “The Christmas Star,” and it’s not been seen for 800 years.
The two largest planets in the solar system, Jupiter and Saturn, are aligning. History reveals that this has not happened since 1623. You would have to go back to around March 4, 1226, to find a date when everyone could see this Christmas star. The alignment of these planets is not expected to happen again until March 15, 2080.
The Star of Bethlehem in the days of the wise men brought people to Jesus. We will be experiencing a once-in-a-lifetime event, just like that of the wise men who followed the star through the wilderness.

The wise men were willing to risk everything to bring Jesus something. The same question to the current generation is: Are you willing to risk everything to bring Jesus something?
Will you still bring Jesus your best gift of living a sold-out Christian life in the midst of government overreaches, constitutional violations and threats of shutting down churches? There is an absolute war against the church and its freedom of religion in America.
Matthew 2:9-11 says, “When they heard the king, they departed. And the star which they saw in the east went before them until it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great excitement. And when they came into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary, His mother, and fell down and worshipped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.”
Consider the wise men, who were willing to travel hundreds of miles to get to Jesus regardless of the atmosphere around them. No matter the cost, the weather conditions, the distance or the death threats, they were committed to risking everything.
