The Birthing of His Purposes

"One Year Bible" New Testament Passage
Matthew 1:1-2:12

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: after His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 1:18 (NKJV)

God always sets up an amazing set of circumstances. Notice the words "after" and "before" followed by "was". It's like a puzzle. The CONCEPTION of a miracle always takes place in midst of the most unlikely circumstances!

It can be CONFUSING. Does God really know what He is doing? He stretches us to bring about the birthing of His Life and Purposes through our lives. In this story, Joseph is in distress, but he remains steadfast in commitment to DO THE RIGHT THING.

It is wonderful to know that God is never distressed, never confused, never worried. The results are world-changing.

So let God's life be birthed in you today. Let the GREAT ADVENTURE begin!
