What Do You Call Him?
JANUARY 2, 2026
Daily Reading—Genesis 3-5 / Matthew 2
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Matthew 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
In Matthew 2:15, it says Jesus was called out of Egypt. Egypt has long been a biblical picture of the world. We find here that Jesus gave a great example to all humanity. As did Israel, Jesus came out of Egypt, a picture of coming out of the world or worldliness.
In verse 23, it says He was called a Nazarene. The people of Nazareth were not looked upon fondly. To be called a Nazarene was a sign of contempt. Christians, too, are often unfairly labeled and are called names by the world after accepting Christ. It matters not what the world calls Jesus.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
The most important question is, what do you call Him?
IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:
Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this passage and today’s devotion?
Do I find within this reading a CHALLENGE for my life?
What are one or two things I WILL DO today or this week to accept that CHALLENGE?
“Getting people into the Word of God…
