In this powerful exploration of obedience during Advent, we're invited to reflect on how God works in unexpected ways. The story of Joseph in Matthew 1:18-25 serves as a profound example of faithful obedience in the face of uncertainty. Just as Joseph had to trust God's plan when faced with Mary's miraculous pregnancy, we too are called to embrace God's will even when it doesn't align with our expectations. This message challenges us to consider: Are we willing to be as obedient as Joseph when God calls us to step out in faith? The concept of 'Emmanuel' - God with us - reminds us that the same God who guided Joseph is present in our lives today, ready to lead us if we're willing to follow. As we journey through Advent, let's ponder how we can cultivate a heart of obedience, trusting that God's ways, though often mysterious, are always for our good and His glory. This sermon was first preached December 15, 2024 at Springfield Church of God by Pastor Jason Mitchell.
