Episode Synopsis

Text if you need me? Prayer or just need encouragement…What if the most ordinary directive in your life is the doorway to God’s perfect timing? We open Luke 2:1–7 and watch a census from Caesar Augustus reroute Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem, landing them in the exact place Micah promised the Messiah would be born. We explore the unity of Scripture by placing this quiet moment beside another census: David’s pride-fueled count in 2 Samuel 24 that brought heavy consequences. That contrast reveals how motives matter and how obedience especially when it looks inconvenient positions us for grace.As we near Christmas, this reflection invites you to look again at the detours in your own story. Where might obedience in the ordinary be the very road to promise? Listen for encouragement rooted in Scripture, a prayer for alignment with God’s timing, and practical hope for the season.If this spoke to you, subscribe for the rest of the Christmas devotional series, share the episode with a friend who needs a nudge of courage, and leave a review so more listeners can find these reflections.Click Here for Devotional Link Download Birth of Jesus E-book Here - Scroll and download Follow me on Substack for application questions & reflection on each episode.
