Good Morning. In Matt. 2:13 we are reminded that God will always protect us from the destructive hands of Satan. The word of the Lord said, “And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.” Matthew Henry in his commentary on this verse said, “Those that are spiritually related to Christ by faith have that communion and correspondence with Heaven which before they were strangers to. Joseph is here told what their danger was: Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. Note, God is acquainted with all the cruel projects and purposes of the enemies of his church. I know thy rage against me, saith God to Sennacherib, Isa. 37:28. How early was the blessed Jesus involved in trouble! Usually, even those whose riper years are attended with toils and perils have a peaceable and quiet infancy; but it was not so with the blessed Jesus: his life and sufferings began together; he was born a man striven with, as Jeremiah was (Jer. 15:10), who was sanctified from the womb, Jer. 1:5.” I pray that we will continue to listen to the voice of the Lord so that He can direct us away from the danger is ahead. Thou, Oh Lord - https://youtube/watch?v=y284YvkYrZo Have a blessed and Holy Spirit-filled day.
