Matthew 1:18-25
Mary was
excited as she and her parents made the wedding plans. And then…God messed with their plans! What do you do when your life plans are
interrupted by God?
In every Christian’s life there are divine
appointments crafted by God’s hand to both bless us and use
us.
Many coincidences in life are truly divinely
designed encounters.
A Divine interruption doesn’t just use us as we
travel through life; it stops us dead in our tracks and changes our direction
.
I. God Does Not Ask Permission Before He
Interrupts Our Lives
Opportunity
knocks when God shows up.
We
have a responsibility to listen when God interrupts our lives.
We can choose not to obey His will, but we
cannot change His will for our life!
II. God's Plan Is Not Always Easy to Follow
God-sized
tasks cannot be accomplished in human power or understanding.
The
way of God and the will of God cannot be determined by our level
of comfort.
Our
question is “WHY?” when our course does not match our
expectations or plans.
God
is in the business of sustaining, not explaining. He has never
promised to tell us why things happen.
We make a terrible error in our concept of
Christianity when we believe that God makes life easy when we are in His
will and that the easy way is God's way.
III. God Will Bless Us and His Plan
If we will agree to follow God's plan
no matter how difficult, eternity will record a far reaching impact for good
because of it!
