“Heading for Egypt”

Preacher:
Series:
Passage: Matthew 2:13-23
Service Type:

After the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem his parents fled with him to Egypt.  The political environment and  a warning Joseph had in a dream caused them to take steps to protect the infant.  Looking ahead to the year 2022 there seems to be a host of problems which could cause us to live in fear.  We don't need a dream or an angelic visitation to point out the difficult days we might face.  Unlike Mary and Joseph there is no need to flee to Egypt for a safe place to hide.  The holy family was not safe because they were in Egypt - they were safe because they were traveling with the Son of God.  In the year ahead your safety is in Him - Jesus.  Travel with Him until "The Storm Passes By".
