Christmas Devotional Day 1 has been adapted from the book Christmas Devotional by Dr. Miriam Kinai.
Bible Reading
After Mary was
engaged to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be expecting
a Child of the Holy Spirit. Then Joseph her husband to be, being a just man,
and not wanting to make her a public spectacle, thought of ending their
relationship privately.
But, while Joseph thought about this issue, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. (Matthew 1:18-20)
But, while Joseph thought about this issue, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. (Matthew 1:18-20)
Bible Lesson
There was probably very little that Mary could do to
convince Joseph to stay with her and not end their relationship because she was
already pregnant with Baby Jesus.
However, even though she could not solve her problem with
her natural resources, God was able to solve it supernaturally by sending an
angel to Joseph.
Therefore
if you are facing a big problem without a human solution and you do not know
what to do about it, do not despair. Give it to God in prayer and wait
expectantly for Him to intervene in your situation and solve it supernaturally the
way He did it for Mary.
Prayer
Heavenly Father I ask You in the name of Jesus to help
me solve these problems that I am facing because You are able to do exceedingly
and abundantly more than I can ever ask or think.
Bible Verse Meditation
God
is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that we can ask or think. (Ephesians
3:20)
