[H] [PREACHING LESSON 7:] THE KIND OF CHRISTIANS WHO BELIEVE THAT EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE WITH GOD

(Uri ng mga Kristiyano na naniniwala na ang lahat ay posible sa Diyos)

LUKE 1:37 “For with God nothing shall be impossible.”

Panimula:

a.     Ang araling ito ay seryosong hamon sa bawat Kristiyano. Maaari nating asahan ang Diyos na gumawa ng malaking bagay kung kikilalanin natin at pagtitiwalaan ang kakayanan Niya na walang bagay na totoong mahirap sa Kanya.

JEREMIAH 32:17-18 “Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, [and] there is nothing too hard for thee:

Jer 32:18 Thou shewest lovingkindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the Lord of hosts, [is] his name,”

b.    Napatunayan sa buhay ni Zacharias at Elizabeth na lahat ay posibleng mangyari sa Diyos.

LUKE 1:13 “But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.”

Mga lingkod ng Diyos na makakapagpatunay na walang bagay na imposible sa Kanya:

1. FOR KING DAVID, HE BELIEVED THAT NOTHING WAS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD

(Para kay Haring David, naniniwala siya na walang imposible sa Diyos)

PSALMS 145:3-5 “Great [is] the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness [is] unsearchable.
Pss 145:4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
Pss 145:5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.”

a.     Ipinapahayag ni Haring David ang kadakilaan ng Diyos na hindi natin kayang maisip at masukat ang kadakilaan Niya.

b.    Pinaranas ng Diyos kay Haring David ang kadakilaan Niya nang matalo ni Haring David at mapatay niya ang higanteng si Goliath.

1SAMUEL 17:50-54 “So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but [there was] no sword in the hand of David.
1Sam 17:51 Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.
1Sam 17:52 And the men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until thou come to the valley, and to the gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even unto Gath, and unto Ekron.
1Sam 17:53 And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they spoiled their tents.
1Sam 17:54 And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.”

c.      Alam ni Haring David na ibibigay ng Diyos ang pagtatagumpay laban kay Goliath.

1SAMUEL 17:36 “Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God.”

2. FOR DANIEL, HE BELIEVED THAT NOTHING WAS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD

(Para kay Daniel, naniniwala siya na walang imposible sa Diyos)

DANIEL 6:10 “Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.”

a.     Masipag si Daniel na manalangin sa Panginoon. Naniniwala siya na kaya ng Diyos na ingatan at iligtas siya sa mga taong may galit sa kanya at sa leon na gutom na gutom.

b.    Pinakitaan ng Diyos si Daniel ng saklolo sa kamay ng mga taong may nais na ipahamak siya.

DANIEL 6:24 “And the king commanded, and they brought those men which had accused Daniel, and they cast [them] into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in pieces or ever they came at the bottom of the den.”

3. FOR JOB, HE BELIEVED THAT NOTHING WAS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD

(Para kay Job, naniniwala siya na walang imposible sa Diyos)

JOB 1:1 “There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name [was] Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.”

a.     Kilala ng Diyos si Job sa pagiging matuwid at pagkakaroon ng takot sa Diyos.

b.    Sa mabigat na pagsubok na naranasan ni Job ay nagbigay pa rin siya ng papuri sa Diyos.

JOB 1:21 “And said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.”

c.      Lalo pang pinagpala ng Diyos si Job ng maraming pagpapala pagkatapos ng mahigpit na pagsubok sa kanyang buhay.

JOB 42:12-13 “So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
Job 42:13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.”

4. FOR PAUL, HE BELIEVED THAT NOTHING WAS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD

 (Para kay Job, naniniwala siya na walang imposible sa Diyos)

 2CORINTHIANS 1:8-10 “For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:
2Cor 1:9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:
2Cor 1:10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver [us];”

a.     Ang Diyos ang pag-asa ni Pablo sa oras ng mabigat na karamdaman niya na halos siya ay nabigatan at nawalan na ng pag-asa.

2CORINTHIANS 1:8 “For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:”

b.    Totoong nagtiwala si Pablo sa pangako ng Diyos na sasaklolo sa ating buhay sa lahat ng panahon.

2CORINTHIANS 1:10 “Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver [us];”

Pangwakas:

Maasahan natin ang Diyos kahit sa oras na sa tingin natin ay imposible. Nagtiwala si Abraham at si Sarah sa Diyos na pagkalooban sila ng anak. Katulad din ni Elisabeth at Zacharias, sila ay nanampalataya din sa Diyos at pinagpala sila ng Diyos.

ROMANS 4:19-21 “And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb:
Rom 4:20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
Rom 4:21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.”

Pagpalain kayong lahat ng Diyos.
