Considering God's Schedule Pt-10 ~ Message 67
This message considers the most important issue that affects our status in relation to God, and then it start into the Millennial Reign which is the 6th age of the Earth.
From Adam and Eve in the garden until today there is one thing that makes the difference in how valuable each person is to God. It is where our attention is focused. When Adam and Eve chose to pursue what they wanted over what God wanted, they failed the test that God had set up just for them. And so it goes for each of us. When our desires for what we want are greater than our desires to please our Creator, we fail to accomplish what he made us for.
The difference between Martha and Mary as told in the gospels is so subtle that it is hard to understand why Jesus admonished Martha when she was the one doing the work. The problem was not about the work it was where her focus was. Doing the good job was important to her, so much so that she scolded Jesus for not providing some help with the tasks. In our mind we think, someone had to do the work and Martha was doing her best, but in reality Mary had chosen correctly because her attention was on Jesus. Had Jesus explained further to Martha, He may have reminded her of the five thousand that He fed, as a reminder of what He was capable of and could have done for everyone there.
What caused Martha's problem? It is a heart problem as explained in Jeremiah 17:9-10; "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways." The problem is that our heart is set on us and seeks every opportunity to make us feel better about ourselves.
Salient: Our desperate hearts, Questioning our motives, Life after death, God’s hints, God’s secrets, The Millennial Reign, A celestial bell hop, Seeking God’s way, Problems, Where is your attention.
Scripture: Jeremiah 17:9-10; Revelation 19:11-16
