Living in the Silence
Devoted to the Faith
Luke 1:7 (JPCS Lk): Among the Jews, “the commencement of old age” occurred when a person became sixty-five.
At seventy, he was said to have reached “hoary-headed age.”
After eighty, he was said to be “well stricken in years.”
John Phillips
A People of Prayer
God Breaks the Silence in His Time
God always speaks with clear instruction
God is not required to give you detail when he gives instruction.
Trust the instruction and watch for the detail.
The time of Elijah had come
This was the last thing God said to the children of Israel at the close of the Old Testament.
400 years later God picks up where he left off.
Trusting the Word of the Lord
Trusting a miracle-working God is not normal.
Trust comes through experience and there had been no experience for generations.
You have to start trusting God somewhere.
Trust the written word and be ready for the spoken word.
Living in expectation of the prophecy’s fulfillment.
Behold God’s Word come to pass
Zechariah becomes the herald
How to Break the Silence:
1. Be Faithful to the house of the Lord.
Go where God is.
We assemble at the house of the Lord in expectation of his presence.
2. Be obedient with what God has already spoken.
Be devout in your faith
Pray as one body with one mind.
3. Listen to what the Spirit is saying to you.
When God shows up don’t question what he says.
Don’t ask for a sign when the sign shows up.
4. Become the herald of the good news.
God’s message become your message
Be faithful to preach it.
