Morning Scripture
“When he arose, he took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt, and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt I called My Son.” Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men. Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying: “A voice was heard in Ramah, Lamentation, weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, Refusing to be comforted, Because they are no more.””
Matthew 2:14-18 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/mat.2.15-18.NKJV
“That night Joseph left for Egypt with the child and Mary, his mother, and they stayed there until Herod’s death. This fulfilled what the Lord had spoken through the prophet: “I called my Son out of Egypt.” Herod was furious when he realized that the wise men had outwitted him. He sent soldiers to kill all the boys in and around Bethlehem who were two years old and under, based on the wise men’s report of the star’s first appearance. Herod’s brutal action fulfilled what God had spoken through the prophet Jeremiah: “A cry was heard in Ramah— weeping and great mourning. Rachel weeps for her children, refusing to be comforted, for they are dead.””

Morning Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank you for all things. Father, thank you for the prophecy that is fulfilled because it reminds us that you have been and will always be with us. We do not glory in the sorrow of this prophecy, but in the realization that your words are true. Father, thank you for being ever present in our past, our present, and our future. Thank you always for every example that you are with us and you know our future - good or bad. Help us to lean into you goodness on our journey with you. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
If the prayer seems a little solemn, it is. The killing of these babies always upsets me. There is never a silver lining in this cloud of missing babies. But I could see the prophecy fulfilled and was reminded that we are never promised easy, happy, or trouble free. We are promised love, grace, and God’s presence. So I leaned into that. Amen
Have a wonderful weekend. He is present and He knows the today and the tomorrow. We just need to tap into his grace. Amen.

Morning Scripture
“Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.

After the wise men were gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up! Flee to Egypt with the child and his mother,” the angel said. “Stay there until I tell you to return, because Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”” Matthew 2:12-13 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/mat.2.12-13.NLT |

Morning Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank you for all things. Father, thank you for reminding us that sometimes it is good to abandon the fight and live to fight another day. Father, forgive us. Sometimes we are headstrong and determined, believing that the fight is in the moment. Father, thank you for your Word that teaches us that the fight could be tomorrow; or the fight could come in a few years. But it doesn’t have to be right now. Thank you for reminding us that when we heed your call we will be protected. Father, keep us from seeing ourselves in our flesh and continue to seek what you have for us. In Jesus’ name we pray and breathe. Amen. I must admit, sometimes it is hard for us to stop swinging long enough to hear God direct us. I must also admit, that sometimes we see retreat as a failure as we fear being called a punk. But, I also admit that every fight I backed down from under the unction of the Holy Spirit - I won. Not always in the moment. But in the end, I won. Didn’t you??? Glory to God and Amen. |
