2 Chronicles 9:1-12
As well as its prophetic meaning, the visit of the queen of Sheba shows the way of the sinner who comes to the Saviour. We take the opportunity to offer a word to any of our readers who have not yet taken that step of faith towards the Lord Jesus. Do you know that nothing which you hear about Him can compare with when you actually come to know Him personally. Therefore, we can only say to you, like Philip said to Nathanael: "Come and see" (John 1:46; cf. v. 6).
And you who already know the Lord Jesus, be it recently or a long time ago, do you know what is the most powerful testimony that you can give for Him? Show that you are happy! All around us many are longing for true happiness though they don’t admit it. Can they see that we have it? And that the secret of this happiness is our personal relationship with the Lord? Does our position make them envious, as was the case with the queen when she saw Solomon’s servants? If we look sad and discontented, we will lead people to think that Jesus cannot satisfy our hearts. And we will be preventing others from coming, seeing . . . and believing.
