Sept. 1, 2010Day 1: Matthew 1-5
What if the fullfillment of God's greatest promises depended on my faithfulness (or yours)? That's a tough question to answer. But Matt. 1:23-24 emphasize how this happened with Joseph and Mary. In very simple terms, Matthew tells us how God spoke his will through the prophets and angels as well as how Joseph and Mary obeyed what God told them to do. That's still the same way God's promises to people come true in today's world. God uses the simple obedience in little or big matters to make known his promised salvation. We will not always know why God calls us to some task, challenge, or opportunity, but we can be sure that he will use our faithfulness to him, to his glory and our greater good.
