Title: Yes
Title: It was only Yes (2 Corinthians 1:18-20)
Did you see the miracle of a dollar in the Christian newspaper?
Yes, our Lord is not without power.
Therefore, because the Lord believed that God was impossible, it was always Yes, but not No.
We hope that the precious work of receiving grace will come through this text.
18 God is faithful, and we do not say yes or no when we say to you.
Because God is faithful, there is no such thing as saying yes or no.
Regarding God's faithful word, 1 Corinthians 1:9 "Faithful God is the God who calls you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Corinthians 10:13" Faithful, He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able Deuteronomy 7:9 Isaiah 49:7
A faithful God is a God who keeps and executes what he has said once.
That is why even Paul, a servant of God, does not mistreat yes or no.
God promised the land of Canaan to the Israelites after they left Egypt.
Exodus 3:8 “I will go down and rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians, and bring them out of the land to a beautiful and vast land flowing with milk and honey, to the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivits, the Jebusites.
The Israelites who left Egypt should have received this word as Amen, but there were some people who did not receive it as Amen.
According to Numbers 13, the twelve spies were chosen, one commander from each tribe, and they spyed out for 40 days and returned.
10 The spies' treasury Numbers 13:28 But the inhabitants of the land were strong, and the cities were fortified and very large, and there I saw the Anakites.
Verses 31-33 The people heard this, Numbers 14:1 and the whole congregation lifted up their voices and cried out, and the people wept all night long.
But Caleb and Joshua
Numbers 13:30 And Caleb silenced the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up immediately and take possession of the land, for we are well able to overcome it.
Numbers 14:8 If the LORD is pleased with us, he will bring us into the land and give it to us, a land flowing with milk and honey. 9 But do not rebel against the LORD, nor be afraid of the people of the land. They are our food; their guardian has departed from them, and the Lord is with us. Do not be afraid of them, but if you say Amen to them, He will give us a land flowing with milk and honey.
The Israelites had to believe the word of God and receive Amen to enter the land flowing with milk and honey.
But God heard the voices of those who did not believe the word of God and complained without Amen.
Numbers 14:27 How long shall I endure this wicked congregation that murmurs against me? I have heard the murmuring of the children of Israel against me. 28 Say to them, By my life, saith the LORD, As you say, As my ears have heard, I will do to you.
When God says Amen, it works as He said, but it is not so, and to those who complained, 29 your corpses will fall in this wilderness. All those who were numbered among you twenty years old or older who complained about me, 30 Caleb the son of Jebunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun. You will never enter the land that I swore to make you live except
We hope that God will hear our Amen and believe that He is a God who works as it is.
Text 19 Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who was preached among you through us, me and Silvanus and Timothy, did not say yes and no, but it was yes with him.
The Lord only said Amen to the Word of God. When he was carrying the cross, he said Amen and carried the cross with joy (Hebrews 12:2).
20 All the promises of God are yes in Christ, so that we can say Amen through him, to the glory of God.
I hope that you and I will be able to believe in God's promises and glorify God by saying Amen in Christ.
