Isaiah 7:10–16 & Matthew 1:18–25
These Isaiah and Matthew texts together proclaim God’s surprising nearness in moments of fear and uncertainty. Isaiah names a sign of hope given amid political anxiety, while Matthew reveals that sign fulfilled in Jesus’ birth through Mary, embraced by Joseph’s faithful obedience. These texts testify that God acts beyond human expectation, entering vulnerability to save, accompany, and remain with a troubled world—Emmanuel, God with us. Listen to the message to gain insight into the intersection of faithful obedience, fear, and uncertainty.
