Matthew 2

Joseph fled to Egypt with Mary and Jesus to protect his family in obedience to God's Word, and to fulfill the prophecy of God's Word. Hosea 11:1 says, “When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son,” and Deuteronomy 4:20 says, “But the LORD has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of His own inheritance, as you are this day.” When you follow the Lord in obedience to His Word, He will never leave you nor forsake you.
