Friday
Read Matthew 1:18-25
18 This was how the birth of Jesus
Christ took place. His mother Mary was engaged to Joseph, but before they were
married, she found out that she was going to have a baby by the Holy Spirit. 19Joseph
was a man who always did what was right, but he did not want to disgrace Mary
publicly; so he made plans to break the engagement privately. 20While
he was thinking about this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and
said, “Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary to be your
wife. For it is by the Holy Spirit that she has conceived. 21She
will have a son, and you will name him Jesus—because he will save his people
from their sins.”
22 Now all this happened in order to
make what the Lord had said through the prophet come true, 23“A
virgin will become pregnant and have a son, and he will be called Immanuel”
(which means, “God is with us”).
24 So when Joseph woke up, he
married Mary, as the angel of the Lord had told him to do. 25But he
had no sexual relations with her before she gave birth to her son. And Joseph
named him Jesus.
Think
God sends his angel to disrupt Joseph's plans. The Holy Spirit has got this.
Pay attention like Joseph did - to the voice of God that sometimes
disrupts your plans.
