This Sunday, we'll look into Matthew 2:1-15, a story of hope and divine protection. Wise men from the East, guided by a star, travel to Bethlehem to honor the newborn Jesus, the true King. Though King Herod plots to harm Him, God directs the wise men to return home by another way, sparing the child.
In a dream, an angel warns Joseph to take Mary and Jesus to Egypt for safety. The family’s escape fulfills the prophecy of God’s care, showing that no earthly power can thwart His plan. Ultimately, Jesus' safety in Egypt symbolizes God's unwavering protection and the hope He brings to the world.
