The Place of God’s Intervention - a podcast by Covenant Word Church
from 2021-02-21T18:13:22
1.Because God is better than I think I must change my thinking
I must readjust my thinking to his ways
Doesn’t bother God that we’re unsettled as long as we’re relying on Him
When he allows us to follow him we arrive in His time
We want what we want as we want it
Millennial Mikes
No correction, no rebuke
2. Isaiah “My house will be called a house of prayer”
Isaiah 56:7 I will bring them to My holy mountain and make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on My altar, for My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations (people)
Make them joyful for your house is a house of prayer
My House will be a house of “intervention”
Where someone stands in front of or the middle of
When you intervene someone who steps in the middle
The intervention happens in our hearts and minds
We the church are the house of intervention
Intercessory prayer
Prayer means “intervention”
You stand in the way of something happening
3. Burn Offerings are voluntary offering that surrenders everything and complete devotion
You will not have mercy AND grace with religion
God’s call for us is to function in grace
Jesus never debated with religious leaders...he usually used questions they had to answer
The church has to get the burnt offerings to God down
a. Burn them
b. And go on with God
c. If we become all huffy and puffy our sacrifice becomes tainted and blemished
d. God's law required perfect unblemished sacrifices to receive his blessing
Jesus said he's coming back for a church without spot or wrinkle
