The journey to Egypt


Mathew 2:13

When they had gone, the 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

Joseph’s obedience in fleeing to Egypt teaches us the importance of being obedient to God’s guidance. As Christians, we face decisions that may require us to step out of our comfort zones or face unforseen challenges. Joseph’s Immediate response to the angel’s warning shows us the significance of acting obediently and courageously in the face of uncertainty. Our obedience to God’s leading brings us into alignment with His plan, even if it leads us through uncharted territory.

Prayer

Gracious Father, we thank you for the example of Joseph, who acted obediently and couragously in the face of uncertainty. As Christians help us to trust in your leading and be obedient to your guidance, even when the path seems unclear. Strengthen our faith to step out in courage, knowing that you are with us every step of the way. May our obedience bring glory to your name. Amen.
