When God Keeps His Promise
December 4, 2022
Let's be honest, sometimes
when we are waiting on God
it can be frustrating.
Last week we were reminded that "Even in the Silence God is Working!" In this message, we build off that Theme as we continue the Christmas Story!
It is now 40 days after Jesus was born, when His parents bring Him to the temple for what turns out to be a Holy Moment! Here an old man named Simeon, who has been clinging to a Holy Promise, takes Jesus in His arms and poetically and prophetically declares that Jesus is the fulfillment of that Promise!
Yet Jesus was not just promised to Simeon, He was promised to us as well. Christmas then, is when God kept His most amazing promise!
Yet just as Jesus promised to come and He did, He has also promised to return, and He will! And just as Simeon waited for Jesus some 2,000 years ago, we likewise are waiting for Him today!
In this message we find the simple encouragement that we need to embrace our own seasons of waiting
THE BIG IDEA: Learn To Worship While You Wait!
