Don’t miss your divine Moment.
Matthew 1:18-19
This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
It’s possible to miss out on your divine Moment.
Joseph who was engaged to Mary almost missed a divine moment to be the earthly father of Jesus were it not for God’s intervention.
The bible says Joseph was planning to divorce Mary quietly when he discovered that she was pregnant. Joseph was about to make a bad decision based on what he saw. He sees a pregnant fiancée and he is thinking- I am out of this thing, he feels cheated. He did not know that the Child Mary was carrying was conceived of the Holy Spirit. The Lord spoke to Joseph right before he made a bad decision and explained to him what was happening.

How many times have we seen people walk away from great opportunities, Jobs, businesses, relationships, churches and engagements because of something they saw or heard? As Christians, we walk by faith and not by sight.
Lessons.
1. Never make a hasty decision on based solely on what you see or hear, what if you are wrong. Sight can be deceiving.
2. Let God order your steps in all that you do by spending time with Him. Let Him Instruct you like He instructed Joseph.
