Different Situation – Same God
Matthew 15:31-39
1. God’s Desire is for our Best and our Good – that Includes Everyone! (Matthew 15:32, Romans 10:11-12)
Romans 10:11-12, For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes on him will not be put to shame,” since there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, because the same Lord of all richly blesses all who call on him.
2. When Faced with GOD’s Calling: (Matthew 15:33)
a. Don’t be Afraid to Act Because of Past Failings. (Feeding of the 5,000)
b. We must Realize that the Recipients of the Blessings Don’t Change God’s Capacity to Bless.
c. We must Realize that the Location of the Call Doesn’t Change God’s Ability to Act.
d. We must Realize that God is just as Powerful as He was when He did that Last Amazing Thing!
3. When we Bring what we have to Jesus, He Does the Amazing! (Matthew 15:34-39, Hebrews 11:6)
Hebrews 11:6, Now without faith it is impossible to please God, since the one who draws near to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
