2024 Advent Devotional

December 2

Read
Matthew 1:22-25

All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”). When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.

Reflect
  • Have you ever received clear direction from God, or maybe felt your conscience nudge you in a certain direction?
  • Was it easy or hard to follow through?
  • What might make it easier or harder?
