When God Whispers Your Name

Luke 19:2-10

 2  And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.

3  And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.

4  And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.

5  And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.

6  And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.

7  And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.

8  And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.

9  And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

10  For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

Point

In order to see Jesus, we’ve got to rise above the crowd.

Point

Verse 8 says, “And Zacchaeus stood, and said…”  If your not ashamed of the gospel or ashamed of Christ, then you shouldn’t be ashamed to confess your sins in public.  Confession is unto salvation

Point #1

Jesus didn’t come for the rich or the poor but to save them that are lost

Point #2

When Jesus whispers your name, all your sins are brought out into the light ( just like the woman at the well confessing that she had no husband)

Point #3

If you listen the voice of Jesus when He whispers your name, salvation can be yours
