Youth Service in Surabaya, May 25, 2013 (Saturday Evening)
Peace
and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Luke
4:1-13 is about 'the
temptation in the wilderness'.
It is same
as the test of faith.
The
test of faith results
in righteousness
and
perfection.
The
tested faith can
appear before two conditions
as follows:
- [verse
14-15]
Jesus returns to Galilee;
He is accepted, blessed, and praised. In this condition, do not
become arrogant, because all
praises are for God only.
- [verse
16-30] Jesus is rejected
in Nazareth. He is slandered and vilified.
These two conditions can happen
to us too in our everyday life and ministry.
We
discuss about the second condition.
Luke
4:16-22
4:16. So He
came to Nazareth,
where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went into the
synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.
4:17. And He
was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the
book, He found the place where it was written:
4:18. "The
Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach
the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To
proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
4:19. To proclaim the
acceptable year of the LORD."
4:20. Then He closed the book,
and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all
who were in the synagogue were fixed on Him.
4:21. And He began to
say to them, "Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your
hearing."
4:22. So all bore witness to Him, and marveled at
the gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth. And they said,
"Is this not Joseph's son?"
Luke
4:16-22 is same as the
verses which are
written in
Isaiah 61:1-2.
Isaiah
61:1-2
61:1. "The
Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, Because the LORD has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the
brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening
of the prison to those who are bound;
61:2. To proclaim the
acceptable year of the LORD, And the day of vengeance of our God; To
comfort all who mourn,
At
the synagogue, Jesus reads
what is written by prophet Isaiah about Himself.
People of
Nazareth should have
believed
in the
fulfillment of the
promise of God by hearing and seeing Jesus. But, they
reject Him. Why?
- The people of Nazareth harden
their heart that they
reject the prophetic
Word
and do not believe in the
Word.
- The people of Nazareth assume
Jesus as the son of Joseph
who is a carpenter.
Luke 4:22-23
4:22.
So all bore witness to Him, and marveled at the gracious words which
proceeded out of His mouth. And they said, "Is
this not Joseph's son?"
4:23.
He said to them, "You will surely say this proverb to Me,
'Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done in Capernaum,
do also here in Your country.'"
We discuss about the
first reason, that is
the people of Nazareth do
not
believe in the prophetic Word.
In
the Old Testament, the prophetic Word which was told by prophet
Isaiah was prophesying about
the coming of Jesus in the
first time
as a Savior. He must die on the cross to save the sinners. The people
of Nazareth reject it. It means they
reject salvation.
In
the New Testament, the prophetic Word reveals
the coming of Jesus in the
second time
in the glory of the King of kings or the Bridegroom to perfect saved
lives.
If we harden our heart and reject the prophetic Word, we
cannot be perfect but
left
behind when
Jesus comes a
second time and we
perish with the
world.
Revelation
1:3
1:3. Blessed is
he who reads
and those who hear
the words of this prophecy, and keep
those things which are written in it;
for the time is near.
The
right attitude about
the prophetic Word is to
read, hear, and keep
those things which are written in it.
Revelation
22:7
22:7. "Behold,
I am coming quickly! Blessed is he who keeps
the words of the
prophecy of this book."
Someday,
when the time of Jesus' second coming is drawing near,
there is no more opportunity to read and hear the prophetic Word. In
that moment, the prophetic Word must be ingrained
in our lives.
That
is why, for now, we
have to use lots of time to read, hear and keep those things which
are written in it,
especially in worship.
1
Corinthians 14:3
14:3.
But he who prophesies
speaks edification
and exhortation
and comfort to
men.
If
we read, hear and obey the
prophetic Word, the
results are as follows:
- Comforting
us.
It is same as
giving extra power to
face anything in the world
so that we do not
become
disappointed
or desperate and leave
God. If we have extra
power, the results are as follows:
- We
always give thanks to God.
We
who are like earthen vessel need
to be filled by the Word
that we are
not easily broken. If
we grumble to God a lot, it means there is no Word inside us.
- We
are
always faithful
and fervent in spirit in
our ministry to God.
- Exhorting
us.
It is same as
leading and guiding us.
Psalms
73:24
73:24. You
will guide me with
Your counsel, And
afterward receive me to glory.
The
Word that is sharper than two-edged sword contains rebuke
and exhortation.
The
rebuke is hard and it
points
to the sins.
If
we want to leave the sin, the rebuke will become exhortation.
The
rebuke and exhortation are
same as the
stretching hand of the
Chief Shepherd to guide
our lives to
enter into
sheepfold.
We
will become wild teenager if we are outside of the sheepfold,
controlled by lust, emotion, and flesh ambition, that we are like to
live in cemetery.
The
cemetery refers to
physical entertainments which captivate,
but actually, those are the extension of the hand of death
such as discotheque,
theatre, et cetera including the church which does
not prioritize the Word.
In
the sheepfold, the lust of the flesh is withheld
and limited, that we
can live in righteousness and the will of God.
The exhortation
of the Word is also a guiding
hand of God to find a way
out from all problems. The
stretching hand of
God also lifts up our
lives to
become beautiful
and happy.
- Edifying
us.
It means it brings
us to the building of the perfect body of Christ.
The
building of the perfect body of Christ happens in the
sheepfold.
Acts
20:28,32-33,35
20:28.
"Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among
which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to
shepherd the church of God
which He purchased
with His own blood.
20:32.
"So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His
grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance
among all those who are sanctified.
20:33. "I have coveted
no one's silver or gold or apparel.
20:35. "I have shown
you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the
weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, 'It
is more blessed to give than to receive.'"
The
shepherding is worth
the blood
of Jesus. It is worth
the blood of Jesus if
we become a sheep in the shepherding.
A shepherd grazes the
sheep who
are worth
the blood of Jesus and
cannot be paid by anything.
In the shepherding, we are
going toward the
building of the perfect body of Christ through the word of grace or
prophetic Word.
The
signs are as follows:
- The prophetic Word
purifies
us up
to our heart
from wicked and unclean desire.
The
evil desire is the
lust of money that makes
us stingy and greedy.
If
evil desire exist, unclean desire will exist too.
If
we are purified, we
will feel that it
is more
blessed to give than to receive.
- Equipping us with ministry
and the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Ephessians
4:11-12
4:11. And
He Himself gave
some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some
pastors and teachers,
4:12. for
the equipping of the saints
for the work of ministry,
for the edifying of the body of Christ,
- Neck is the relationship
between body and the Head.
It means worship.
The
neck is used to submit
and obey until our flesh does
not sound anymore.
This is the secret of the youth success.
1
Peter 5:5-6
5:5.
Likewise you younger people, submit
yourselves to your elders.
Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with
humility, for "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the
humble."
5:6. Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty
hand of God, that He
may exalt you in due time,
If
we submit and obey, we are in the God's strong hand of mercy which
is able to exalt us in due time.
God blesses us.
