Matthew 1

Matthew 1
This chapter has fulfilled prophecy.

The first is that God made promises to Abraham about an everlasting covenant that would come through Him. The lineage is important to us to show that that word is being fulfilled and we are a part of it as a believer.
The second one is that Jesus would be born of a virgin as spoken in Isaiah 7:14. Joseph didn’t know her till after the baby was born.

We also see that angels were at work. Gods ministering spirits at work to bring to pass His plan. God still uses angels today to make this happen. The thing that I saw was that He didn’t make Joseph take her as his wife, but Joseph chose to follow the dream that God gave him. God has dreams and vision for all of us but are we willing to follow what God is saying? It’s our obedience to the Lord that brings about the fulfillment of what God is saying.

So with reading this the question that comes to my mind is are we being obedient to the Lord to see His plans come to life in us and through us? The decision is ours as God has had a plan since the beginning to make a way for us to be with Him.
