It is not an accident that the very word that I give you today is the word that I need to hear.

 

I heard this song today on the radio and it spoke to the depths of my soul…..I pray that God would use it to speak to you as well….this very day.

 

I am sure that Zacheus recognized his “lack of stature”.  Yes, he was short, but that is not what I am referring to…..

 

I think Zacheus recognized that he was short in the very thing he could not be…..HE WAS SHORT of the calling that God had put over his life.

 

  • Instead of a giver….he was a taker.
  • Instead of getting to give…..he was only giving so that he could get.
  • Instead of being the man who was showing others God’s love……he was misrepresenting the only friend he had ever known.

 

Luke 19 Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. 2A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. 3He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd.  4So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way.  5When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.” 6So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly.  7All the people saw this and began to mutter, “He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”  8But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything,I will pay back four times the amount.”  9Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.  10For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”

 

The Son of Man came to seek and save the lost.

Wow….that’s me.

That’s Me!

And that’s you.

You can offer something to God that He can use….

Agreement.

You can AGREE.

 

There will never be a greater offer.

The Son of Man is offering to disregard your short….

He is offering to come to your house.

He is has already chosen to seek you.

But to save you….you must AGREE.

And when you do…..you can begin a great inheritance.

No Matter What
