Prayer Service in Malang, August 07, 2012 (Tuesday Evening)
To Coincide with Fasting Prayer
Session 3
Peace in the grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ.
The whole Matthew 27 refers to the seven sprinklings
of blood on the Ark of the Covenant. Meaning the suffering Jesus
experiences until He dies on the cross to save, sanctify, and perfect
us.
There are seven passages in Matthew 27 that refer to the
seven sprinklings of blood or sufferings Jesus experiences. We learn
the fourth passage, namely Jesus is crucified and dead [Matthew
27:32-50].
- Verse 32 is about the facts found
in the cross.
- Verse 33is about the place of the
crucifixion.
- Verse 34-44 is about the meaning of the cross.
Tonight we learn verse 38-44, namely the attitude toward
the cross as follows.
Matthew
27:38-44
27:38 Then two robbers were crucified with Him,
one on the right and another on the left.
27:39 And those who
passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads
27:40 and saying,
"You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save
Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross."
27:41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes
and elders, said,
27:42 "He saved others; Himself He cannot
save. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the
cross, and we will believe Him.
27:43 "He trusted in God;
let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, 'I am the
Son of God.'"
27:44 Even the robbers who were crucified
with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
- Negative attitude.
- Mocking the cross that can be
divided into three groups as follows:
- [verse 41-43] chief priests and
the scribes, referring to the servants of God;
- [verse 39-40] those who passed
by, referring to general people;
- [verse 38, 44] robbers who were
crucified with Him.
- Rejecting the cross.
Matthew
16:21-23
16:21. From that time Jesus began to show to His
disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from
the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be
raised the third day.
16:22 Then Peter took Him aside and
began to rebuke Him, saying, "Far be it from You, Lord; this
shall not happen to You!"
16:23 But He turned and said to
Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for
you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men."
Simon Peter, a great servant of God, rejects the cross
because of keeping the flesh mind or human logic. Human often keeps
something that seems good but not righteous. The mind of God is
something that is righteous and good.
Rejecting the cross, one
will become same as devil and perish.
Simon, a man of
Cyrene, is not famous but he is willing to bear the cross, so he
receives the glory.
John 16:7
16:7.
"Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage
that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come
to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.
Jesus
goes away means He suffers on the cross, resurrects, and ascends to
heaven to pour out Holy Spirit.
Human will reject the cross if
there is no Holy Spirit in him. Consequently, he becomes carnal man
who only perishes.
On the contrary, we can receive Holy Spirit
if we receive the cross. He is able to change our life from carnal
man to spiritual one as Jesus is. As a result, we will receive
eternal life.
- Positive attitude.
- Seeing or appreciating the cross,
especially when we experience the bitterness or sorrow of life in
the wilderness of the world, such as in marriage, economy, et
cetera.
Exodus 15:23-25
15:23 Now when they
came to Marah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they
were bitter. Therefore the name of it was called Marah.
15:24
And the people complained against Moses, saying, "What shall
we drink?"
15:25 So he cried out to the LORD, and the
LORD showed him a tree. When he cast it into the waters, the waters
were made sweet. There He made a statute and an ordinance for them.
And there He tested them,
The facts found in seeing or
appreciating the cross are as follows.
- Not murmuring or blaming one
another.
- Correcting our life always. We
confess our sin to God and other people when we find mistakes in
our life. Afterwards, we do not repeat the sins. Let us be silent
when there is no sin in our life.
- Not lying.
- Giving thanks always to God.
If we appreciate the cross, we will receive the power of Holy
Spirit, the Comforter.
As a result, the bitter things can be
changed to become sweet. Meaning all things become beautiful and
joyful in due time.
- Holding or lifting up the cross, especially when we face
dead-end or impossibilities.
Exodus 14:16, 21
14:16
"But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea
and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground
through the midst of the sea.
14:21 Then Moses stretched out his
hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a
strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land,
and the waters were divided.
The fact found in it is
lifting up our hands to God to fully surrender to Him and obey the
teaching Word although it is not in line with our
logic.
Afterwards, we receive the east wind that is Holy
Spirit or the Spirit of Helper.
As a result, there is a way in
the midst of the sea, meaning Holy Spirit makes the way out of all
problems and finishes them, even the impossible ones. All things
are finished and successful in His time.
- Taking up the cross or being
willing to suffer.
1 Peter 4:12-14
4:12. Beloved,
do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try
you, as though some strange thing happened to you;
4:13 but
rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings,
that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with
exceeding joy.
4:14 If you are reproached for the name of
Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests
upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is
glorified.
The practice is we are willing to suffer
together with Jesus without any sin.
For example, we are willing
to suffer because of the will of God or the true teaching Word,
doing service and ministry to Him, being slandered, et cetera.
As a result, there is Spirit of Glory to perform the
greatest miracle, namely life renewal from carnal man to spiritual
one as Jesus is. We can be strong and of good courage as follows.
- We hold fast to the one true
teaching Word.
- We are not hopeless,
disappointed, or proud of anything.
- We keep on worshiping God, believing and entrusting
ourselves fully to Him. We only hope in Him, not in others.
1 Chronicles 28:20
28:20 And David said to his son
Solomon, "Be strong and of good courage, and do it; do not
fear nor be dismayed, for the LORD God--my God--will be
with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you, until you have
finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.
The result is as follows.
- We live in the embrace of God's hand, so we are
physically and spiritually protected and preserved.
Isaiah
49:14-16
49:14 But Zion said, "The LORD has
forsaken me, And my Lord has forgotten me."
49:15 "Can
a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the
son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget
you.
49:16 See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My
hands; Your walls are continually before Me.
- We are employed in the ministry of building the perfect
body of Christ and worthy of welcoming Jesus' second coming.
God blesses you.
