Title: Flower of Faith
Bible: Luke 1:15-20
In this world, flowers are flowers, but how good would it be if there were flowers in all seasons? If there was a flower whose scent makes the world vibrate and spreads its fragrance to the throne of heaven, how much would it be?
Is it good for me? It will probably become the most precious flower in the world. But does such a flower exist?
There is a legendary flower that blooms at night and on the cross, blooms in prison, blooms in lions' den, and blooms in fire.
That's a hymn.
However, there is one condition for cultivating these legendary and fantasy flowers: the land of faith and the proper moisture of joy.
And the seed of this flower can never be bought with money. You cannot have it with authority. It is a gift and blessing that is given only by God's grace. God wants and wants this flower to always bloom in our lives.
because? This is because this is the canon that covers the existence of faith and the absence of faith, because it is a blue signal for eternal life.
But there are certain exceptions. The Lord wrote to the church in Sardis (Revelation 3:1) to the angel of the church in Sardis, He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars said, "I know your works, that you have a name that you live." But he is dead," he rebuked.
This is by no means a distinct title of office or saint, that is, a mark of faith.
It is a fact that it is not the cradle of eternal life (a collection of important things). Then, how can we measure the amount of this faith? There is one surest way.
That's the hymn.
This is because the praises of life are determined by whether you have faith or not.
Think about it. When you don't have joy, when you don't have gratitude, when you don't pray, did hymns come from your mouth? It would never have happened. This is because hymns appear as symptoms of various factors of faith. For example, if you look at the Bible and meditate quietly on Luke 1:5-20, the lessons we really need are contained.
Therefore, it is the content of the angel Gabriel announcing the birth of John the Baptist to the priest Zacharias. It seems meaningless. But take a look again and you will discover the state of faith of the highest leader at the time, the priest
Luke exposes the wrong part of the religious leader's beliefs, which no one dared to argue in front of him.
Zacharias' Birth Background The current offices are very splendid.
He also said that he was a righteous man who was approved by God. The only thing he lacked is that he did not have a son. At that time, the angel Gabriel appeared in front of Zacharias, who had entered the sanctuary to fulfill the priestly duties.
(Luke 1:13) The angel spoke to him and said, “Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your request has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will give you a son, and you will call him John. (Luke 1:14) You too will rejoice and rejoice, and many will rejoice in his others (Luke 1:15) because he will be great before the Lord, and will not drink wine or shochu, and will be filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother's womb. (Luke 1:16) He will make many of the children of Israel return to the Lord, their God. (Luke 1:17) And he will go before the Lord in the spirit and power of Elijah, and give the hearts of fathers to children, and the disobedient to the righteous. to return to the wisdom of the Lord,
I will prepare the people I have set up. Look, how delightful and wonderful it is. Just the news of the birth of a son makes my heart explode, but the holy mission that he has to bear tells us in detail how precious the son is and what the meaning of his birth is.
Have any of you ever had this experience? Perhaps, if I had experienced amaran in a dream rather than in reality, I would get up and sing Hallelujah and sing a song of thanksgiving suddenly.
I'll give it to you and there will be a riot.
But for Zacharias, it is not a dream, but a reality, and it is not a private residence, but an experience of incense in the Most Holy, and the most unbelieving words, let alone Hallelujah, came out of her mouth. How can I know, because I am old and my wife is old. Look, isn't that a very absurd statement? You would never have imagined that you would react like this in this passage. Where in the world could there be such a frustrating person? Where is this disgrace? Now, let's take a look at the result? (Luke 1:20) Behold, you will be dumb and unable to speak until the day these things come to pass, because you do not believe my words, but when the time comes, He said the word would come true.
Now, take a good look. If you don't sing when you should, you become spiritually dumb.
