Bible Stories Explained: Discovering the Three Wise Men Inside of You
The journey of faith often takes us beyond the surface of familiar stories to uncover profound spiritual truths held within the pages of the Holy Bible. In this episode titled "The 3 Wisemen Inside of You," hosted by Kasubel and Sheba of The Temple of the Most High, we are invited to re-examine the story of the Magi from the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 2, verse 11. This passage recounts the wise men from the East who came bearing gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, honoring the newborn King with their treasures. Yet, as we deeper explore these gifts through a metaphysical lens, they reveal profound teachings applicable to every believer’s inner temple. Matthew 2:11 reads: "And when they were come 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 unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh." These gifts are rich symbols: gold representing divine wisdom and kingship, frankincense symbolizing worship and spiritual prayer, and myrrh signifying sacrifice, suffering, and the anointing that prepares one for spiritual resurrection. This story not only recounts historical events but inspires us in our personal Bible study to recognize these three qualities within ourselves. The equipping of the Magi indicates a spiritual awakening, an invitation to nurture the gifts God has placed inside us. The gold within is the wisdom to discern the kingdom of heaven, the frankincense the faith and devotion that ascend as prayer, and the myrrh, the willing heart to embrace challenges as refining fire. This aligns with the Bible’s recurring message that the kingdom of God is not merely a future promise but an inner reality (Luke 17:21). By recognizing the three wise men inside, believers embark on an expedition Bible study that enlightens the transformative power of scripture in our lives. Furthermore, this story encourages us to reflect on who we bring before Christ in our spiritual worship and what treasures we offer daily—be they acts of faith, sacrifices, or pursuit of wisdom. The Bible motivation here is to awaken this inner temple, not just to know the stories of the Bible but to live them authentically. The rich narrative in the King James Bible, our treasured Bible, undefeated by time, reminds us of the timelessness of biblical truths that sustain our faith. Therefore, as we meditate on these deep Bible stories, let us remember how each element—the gold, frankincense, and myrrh—calls us to higher spiritual understanding and acts of worship grounded in scripture. This biblical symbolism invites believers of all walks of life to connect the historical with the metaphysical, the literal with the spiritual, forging a living faith grounded firmly in the Holy Bible’s wisdom. Thus, the three wise men are not only ancient visitors—they embody the spiritual gifts and faculties we cultivate as we walk with God. Today’s Bible study reminds us that every believer can discover these three wise men within, ready to guide us in worship, wisdom, and willing sacrifice. Let this teaching inspire your ongoing Bible journey, helping you to find new light in familiar stories and renewed strength to live according to the deep wisdom of God's word. As Proverbs 2:6 reveals, “For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.” Through this knowledge, the story of the Magi becomes a rich source of spiritual empowerment and soulful reflection.
