Behold Your King, Day 9: Simeon's Hope Fulfilled

In this episode of Behold Your King, we witness the long-awaited moment when Simeon, led by the Holy Spirit, takes the infant Jesus in his arms and recognizes Him as God’s promised salvation. Drawing from Isaiah 46 and Luke 2, this reading highlights how the righteousness and deliverance of God—once anticipated for centuries—has now come near in Christ. Simeon rejoices that Jesus is not only the glory of Israel but also a light of revelation to the Gentiles, the Savior born to redeem all peoples. Through the testimony of Simeon and the devotion of Anna, we see the dawning of hope for a world once darkened, as Jews and Gentiles alike are invited into one kingdom under one King.
