Sermon: Mary Had A Baby And Joseph Obeyed His Dream
Key points in a 28-minute sermon form Matthew 1:18-25
When Joseph discovers that Mary is pregnant, he decided to break the engagement. Understanding the danger facing Mary as unmarried single mother Joseph makes plans to quietly send her away.
Joseph did not take this decision to leave Mary lightly. During a sleepless night he fell into a dream, an angel of the Lord appeared with amazing news.
Mary had been impregnated by the Holy Spirit she will have a son and Joseph will name him Jesus which means Savior for he will save people from their sins.
The angel was right to remind Joseph not to fear.
It was fear that powered Jim Crow yesterday and racism today.
It is fear that keeps Trump supports from seeing him for who he is. And its fear that keeps America from being great.
It is fear that robs us of our dreams, makes us distrustful and causes all matter of heartache.
Jesus came so that whoever believed in him would have an abundant life.
With Jesus there is only hope so let’s not fear.
