Text: Hosea 11:1-12
Prophet Hosea predicted God calling His Son out of Egypt (v.1). Remember Jesus Christ, as a baby with His family, took refuge in Egypt, fleeing the ruthless King Herod.
The prophecy was fulfilled when the Lord told Joseph in a dream to take the mother and child and flee to Egypt for safety (Mat. 2:13-14). The Egyptian border was about ninety (90) miles South of Bethlehem. Please note that this was Joseph’s second dream or vision he received from God. The first one being that the baby in Mary’s womb was the Messiah
(Mat. 1:20-24).
Meditate on Matt. 2:2. How are you going to apply it to your life?
Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, teach me how to worship You in truth and spirit. Amen.
