SATURDAY
JOSEPH REMAINED FOCUS ON GOD’S SPECIAL DAY!
(Matthew 1:18- 19) 18- “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. 19- Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.”
We have the treasures and the pressure of CHRISTmas. CHRISTmas is a treasure from the Lord because of the gift of God the Father to a dying and sinful world. It will be a pressure if you don’t know the true meaning, the true Spirit and the center of CHRISTmas. If Joseph was not spiritually mature and if he was not living the Christian life; he could never make it on that first CHRISTmas day. Joseph will either be proud, and will start to have a haughty spirit or he will be so scared and turned his back from the offer and command of God to him through the angel. (Matthew 1:20) “But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.” Joseph will have in his hand the honor and the greatest responsibility an individual could ever have and it was to take care of Mary and of Jesus. Some of the people you know may not make it right this CHRISTmas season and it’s because they don’t know the right person of CHRISTmas which is the Lord Jesus Christ. Remember that CHRISTmas is not about you and it’s not about us, it’s about the CHRIST of CHRISTmas.
(Matthew 1:21) “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.”
