Prayer Service in Malang, November 29, 2011 (Tuesday Evening)
Speaker: Rev. Mikha
Sanda Toding
Matthew
8:18-27
8:18.
And when Jesus saw great multitudes about Him, He gave a command to
depart to the other side.
8:19 Then a certain scribe came and
said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go."
8:20 And Jesus said to him, "Foxes
have holes and birds of the air have nests,
but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
8:21 Then
another of His disciples said to Him, "Lord,
let me first go and bury my father."
8:22 But Jesus said to him, "Follow
Me, and let the dead bury their own dead."
8:23
Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him.
8:24
And
suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was
covered with the waves.
But He was asleep.
8:25 Then His disciples came to Him and awoke
Him, saying, "Lord, save us! We are perishing!"
8:26
But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little
faith?" Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and
there was a great calm.
8:27 So the men marveled, saying, "Who
can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?"
There
are three hindrances in following Jesus to go to New Jerusalem as
follows:
-
[Matthew 8:18-20] Foxes
and birds.
Jesus
will come again soon to put Himself as the Head over His body.
Nevertheless, there are foxes and wolves dwelling in the
congregation.
-
Foxes.
Revelation
18:18-21,2-3
18:18
"and cried out when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying,
'What is like this great city?'
18:19 "They threw
dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and wailing, and saying,
'Alas, alas, that great city, in which all who had ships on the
sea became rich by her wealth! For in one hour she is made
desolate.'
18:20 "Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you
holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on her!"
18:21 Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great
millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, "Thus with
violence the great city Babylon shall be thrown down, and shall not
be found anymore.
18:2 And he cried mightily with a loud voice,
saying, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has
become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit,
and a cage for every unclean and hated bird!
18:3 "For
all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her
fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with
her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the
abundance of her luxury."
Foxes refer to evil
spirits or evil lusts,
namely the lust of money or riches or worldly matter that makes one
stingy and greedy.
Being stingy means one cannot give tithes and
special offering that are God's possession.
Being greedy means
one seizes the possession of other people, even the possession of
God.
-
Birds refer to unclean
lust,
namely sins concerning eating-drinking and marrying-being given in
marriage or sexual sin with all its varieties.
The hiding place of
evil and unclean spirit is our heart and mind. Rejecting the hard
teaching Word, one becomes harder and become the hiding place of
foxes and birds.
-
[Matthew 8:21-22] The
hindrances are as follows:
-
Activities in the
world
that make us unfaithful in serving and ministering God.
James
4:4.
4:4
Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with
the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a
friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
-
Busy activities that
make us unable to change.
2
Timothy 3:1-4.
3:1.
But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:
3:2
For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters,
proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3:3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control,
brutal, despisers of good,
3:4 traitors, headstrong, haughty,
lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
At
the last days there will be perilous time, that is to say people
cannot change.
Activities about worldly matters make the sons of
God unfaithful even leave the service and ministry and not change,
but still become flesh men keeping eighteen sins.
-
[Matthew 8:23-24] Wind
and waves.
-
Wind.
Ephesians
4:14
4:14
that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried
about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the
cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,
The
wind refers to the
wind of false teaching that deceives and drowns us
until we go astray in our journey to New Jerusalem, so we will go
to Babel.
-
Waves.
James
1:6
1:6
But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is
like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
The
waves refer to temptations
and problems,
beginning from our household. Do not be weak and shaken because of
the wind and waves because we indeed have to face them. Do not be
hopeless because of problems in the household because only the Word
can change us all.
The solution of the
hindrances is Jesus sleeps and then He wakes up.
Matthew
8:25-26
8:25
Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Lord,
save us! We are perishing!"
8:26 But He said to them, "Why
are you fearful, O you of little faith?" Then He arose and
rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
John
11:11
11:11
These things He said, and after that He said to them, "Our
friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up."
Sleeping
means death experience or the power of death and waking up means
resurrection experience or the power of resurrection.
Jesus
slept but then He woke up, meaning the
power of His death and resurrection
that can defeat all hindrances and make all wind and waves calm.
The
proof of having the power of Jesus' death and resurrection is BEING
SILENT and QUIET.
-
Being silent means
checking ourselves and repenting if we find any mistake.
Isaiah
30:15
30:15
For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: "In
returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence
shall be your strength." But you would not,
Do
not make our own way, but let us now be silent and quiet. Do not
blame other people or God when we face any problem, but let us be
silent at Jesus' feet.
-
Being quiet means we only
hope in the Lord, pray, and entrust ourselves to God. It equals to
stretching our hand to God.
The result of being
silent and quiet is as follows:
-
The Lord will open way
for us, and we can live in the middle of dry desert of the
world.
Exodus
14:15-16
14:15.
And the LORD said to Moses, "Why do you cry to Me? Tell the
children of Israel to go forward.
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.
-
The hand of God is
stretched to lift us up from our sinking, so we do not doubt,
especially we do not doubt to the true teaching Word.
Matthew
14:30-31
14:30
But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and
beginning to sink he cried out, saying, "Lord, save me!"
14:31
And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and
said to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?"
The
doubt will drown us. We are often shaken when we see the weakness of
other people, especially the preacher. Do not check the fault of
other people but let us heed to the Word.
1
Peter 4:7
4:7.
But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and
watchful in your prayers.
Jesus'
second coming is drawing near. Many people who actively minister God
will depart Him because of keeping foxes and birds, because of doubt
to the true teaching Word. Let us now seriously heed to the
sacrifice of Christ, so we do not move anyway.
-
The hand of God is
stretched to guide us to the desired haven or the harbor of peace in
New Jerusalem.
Psalm
107:29-30
107:29
He calms the storm, So that its waves are still.
107:30 Then
they are glad because they are quiet; So He guides them to their
desired haven.
Revelation
21:1
21:1.
Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the
first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea.
There
is no doubt in New Jerusalem. Where will we go if we still doubt to
the true teaching Word? There is no sea in New Jerusalem means there
is no doubt there. Being outside New Jerusalem means being in Babel.
Therefore, let us not doubt to the true teaching Word.
There
is no tear or sorrow in New Jerusalem. Our sorrow and suffering
because of keeping the true teaching Word are only temporary because
the joy we will experience in New Jerusalem is much greater.
Tonight let us be quiet and silent much more, look upon the
sacrifice of Christ and we receive the power of Hid death and
resurrection.
God blesses you.
