Matthew 2:13-23

Poem - God Knows - by: Minnie Louise Haskins
Used by King George VI - Christmas Day Speech 1939

God’s timing is PERFECT

God has had this plan from before the beginning of CREATION

Telling the Magi - CREATION IS NOT BY CHANCE

PLAN and PURPOSE

At Jesus’ birth - FULLY GOD/FULLY HUMAN

Matthew emphasized how things FULFILLED PROPHECY

Luke wrote SO THEOPHILUS would be convinced of the things he had been taught

Romans 8:28
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[i] have been called according to his purpose.”

To live our lives knowing that God has a plan that is so much bigger than us is amazing. IT IS ALSO VERY HUMBLING
