25 Days Of Christmas
DAY 13: ESCAPE TO EGYPT
Where To Start
Read Matthew 2:13-15 and then watch the DAY THIRTEEN video.
God warns us because He loves us. He warns through dreams, angels, people, Scripture, and the Holy Spirit.
When God redirects you, stay teachable and flexible with your plans. Jesus is our Good Shepherd and leads us daily. You will see God’s wisdom clearly in the rearview mirror. Walk by faith, not by sight. God’s detours are full of God’s blessings and provision.
Wait on the Lord. Be strong and have confidence in God.
When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”
So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so wasa fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.
HOPE POINT
God warns and guides us.
Reflection Question: How is it loving to clearly warn people?
PRAYER
Father God, thank You for every time You redirect us with wisdom and compassion. Thank You, Jesus, for demonstrating Your love on the cross to rescue us from hell. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for guiding us in the best way. We love You, Lord, and pray in Your name. Amen.
