The Magi brought gifts and worshipped Jesus for who he was. This is the essence of true worship--honoring Christ for who he is and willing to give him what is valuable to you. Worship God because he is the perfect, just, and almighty Creator of the universe, worthy of the best you have to give. (Matthew 2:11, NIV Application Notes).
