Introduction
Hear the Word of the Lord
Hear the word of the Lord
++35 times in the Old Testament
++3 of the 35 times it adds GOD
Each of these ended in a declared relationship
“And you shall know I am the Lord”
Lordship is an expression of natural authority
It denotes power
++To instruct
++To inform
++To command
When that authority is God
The power is
++Not limited to natural restraint
++Transformation
His power not only changes
++What we know
++What we have
It changes who we are
The words of scripture declares
++A moral preference
++A standard
++What is good and evil
++What is right and wrong
Everything in nature reflects
++Order
++Design
++A master plan
It is easy to notice the unexpected
When things are done right there is
++No complaint
++No reward
Why is it important to do the right thing?
Doing the wrong thing
++Will get you noticed
++Will make you visible
We live in a world that cries out for justice.
If God is good why does injustice prevail?
Does God care about injustice?
God Takes Notice
God said to Moses
++I have seen the oppression
++I have heard their cry
++I know their sorrow
++I am come down to deliver them
How did God bring his deliverance?
God is still looking for someone
++With us today
++Committed to work
++Powerful in prayer
++Delay the decay
He found no one
Paul is being challenged
++Sin is present among the believers
++This report has come to Paul
++Paul has taken know immediate action
Paul’s delay in confronting sin
++Is seen as weakness
++Was in reality a pursuit of clarity
Paul did not rush to Judgement
Divine revelation
++Does not change natural realities
++Provides clarity connected to purpose
Earthly judgement
++Is connected to natural evidence
++Is exploration to find what is right
If you are a man of God
++Wouldn’t you know?
++Wouldn’t you put the sinner out?
The Real Proof
The proof of Christ speaking
++Is not the strength of the leader
++Is the strength of the word
++Is it’s impact on the hearer
No one can declare your testimony
Knowing our relationship with God
Take the examination
++Am I growing in the faith?
++Do I know that I am in Christ?
++Is Christ in me?
Knowing our relationship with God
Obedience directed to God
Paul tells the to check their motives
Though they were the proof of the effectiveness of his ministry, his ministry was not effective because of them.
Don’t live right
++For the good of the ministry
++To account for weakness
Obedience directed to God
How we live our life
Paul’s Prayer was
++That you do no evil
++That you do what is right
How we live our life
2 Corinthians 13:9 (NKJV)
9 For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong.
And this also we pray, that you may be made complete.
The Fullness of God is made known in you
The Fullness of God is made known in you
2 Corinthians 13:11 (NKJV)
