Sermon Feb. 6, 2022 My Time and God's Timing.
During this last Festive season, God wanted us to enjoy the birth of His Son, BABY Jesus, but should it really stop there?
Question: If you could ask God to change just one thing in your life, what would that be?
What will you ask God to change during this year 2022?
(Think)??? Let's page through the Bible.
(pic) . . . .
Our loving God wants us to know the TRUTH.
1 Thess 5:16-18 Always be full of joy.
Never stop praying.
Whatever happens, always be thankful.
This is how God wants you to live in union with Christ Jesus.
The world just celebrated the birth of Jesus to bring us the TRUTH.
Why?
He wants us to follow Jesus.
(pic) . . . .
= Jesus calling
He came to reveal what the Father is like and how God expresses His love for us through this BABY Jesus.
The question is how will we ever find out what is TRUTH.
How do you think?
How many times have you prayed and did NOT get an answer from God?
So you ask: when will "God give us some answers with our current challenges and knowing the TRUTH?"
Why is God's timing so different from my time?
Psalm 102:2 David: Hide not Your face from me in the day when I am in trouble, incline Your ear unto me, in the day when I call, answer me speedily.
(pic) . . . .
= My time vs God's time
(pic) . . . .
= TWO clocks
David says: It feels like as if I am carrying my own burdens, please answer me.
God, answer me quickly when I pray.
Why is God's timing is so different from my time.
I realize that God had a purpose and things revolve around His purpose.
It amazes me when God plans something HUGE;
He selects meek people to fulfil His purpose.
So, I studied the Bible, and I noticed that when God arranges something very BIG, He sends a little baby to come and help.
We pray and ask God for something urgent.
Then we say, God, how can this little baby be of any help in my life.
(Let's go thru the Bible)
Cain kills his righteous brother Abel.
That left us with a murderer as a great, great Grandfather.
Gen 4:25 Eve gave birth to another son, Seth.
Eve said, "God has given me another son.
Cain killed Abel, but now I have Seth as a baby.
God sends a baby to change the future of humanity.
After several years, humanity became so bad that God wiped out all of humanity with a flood accept Noah's family.
Noah's family grew larger, they departed from God, because they did not pray.
I could not find any mention of prayers, so God sends another baby to fulfil His plan of Salvation.
Gen 17: 19 God said to Abraham, "your wife Sarah will have a baby.
You will name him Isaac".
Another baby.
Isaac had a child called Jacob; then Jacob's wives had 12 more babies, after many years they end up as slaves in Egypt - we know the history of Israel.
In their distress, the Israelites began to cry out to the LORD".
What did God do, God sends yet another baby to fulfil His great plan for humanity.
Exo 2:1-2 A man from the family of Levi married a woman from the tribe of Levi.
She became pregnant and gave birth to a baby (a baby boy, called Moses).
Baby Moses (was saved on the Nile river bed) he was meek,
Then after 80 YEARS, this baby Moses became the leader for Israel to lead them to the Promised Land.
The Bible is very clear that God used Moses to lead the Israelites, into the Promised Land (Moses started as a baby)
Was this part of God's plan?
(The question is: Do you have 80 years to get an answer from God when you cry out to Him?)
Israel ended up in the Promised Land, they prospered, and all was going well in the land of milk and honey that God promised Abraham.
After some years, Israel forgot about God completely.
(Years later, God sends another baby)
1 Sam 1:20 Hannah prayed, she became pregnant and had a baby boy.
She named him Samuel.
Israel demanded a king, this Prophet Samuel anointed Saul as king, then, kings came, and kings went.
Prophets came & prophets went, finally God let Israel go into captivity to Babylon because they did not listen to God.
The last Prophet Malachi died, then total silence from God for over 400 years.
God did not answer their prayers.
Israel came back after 70 years of captivity.
Eventually they find themselves under the ruler-ship of Rome.
It looked like as if God's plan has fallen apart.
The promise of God to Abraham that all nations will be blessed was forgotten, it failed.
Where is God, has He left humanity alone to sort out their own troubles, because they do not listen?
In the meantime, Israel is waiting for a powerful Messiah to come and rescue them from the Roman Empire to restore their dignity as a nation.
But where is God's answer, they're still waiting.
God's plan has failed.
Israel asked God: we want a Messiah to come and release us from the Roman rulership.
They are still waiting today.
What does God do, mysteriously God SENDS ANOTHER BABY.
Galatians.
4:4 But when the right time finally came, God sent his Son, who was born from a woman and lived under the law.
As mentioned the world celebrated Jesus' birth recently.
Yes, God sends another baby - but it took 30 years to notice God's plan through Jesus.
My time & God's time is so different.
WHY?
God, I do not have 30 or 80 yrs left to wait for an answer.
Maybe there is more than just the little BABY in a manger?
This Jesus grew up and started to spread the Good News of Salvation, then He gets crucified on the cross and died.
Is that the end of the BABY story?
God's plan failed again.
It seems that Satan has won.
Jesus chose Disciples that were un-educated fishermen and tax collectors and He told them to go out and lead people to Him.
Jesus departs into heaven, and He says, "I will return one day" just continue to bring people to Me.
Centuries go by - and we are still waiting.
Was this part of God's plan for His Son to appear just at the right time as a BABY.
BUT WHY?
Galat 4:5 God did this so that He could "BUY" the freedom of those who were under the law.
God's purpose was to make us his children.
Listen.
Here is the astounding message for today.
