Galatians 4:29 At that time the son born according to the flesh persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now.

What is one of the major themes we see, right from the beginning of our human existence? Jealousy and persecution against God!

God may have put everything in place, but we have covered things over time and time again with our petty fighting and insults which have even lead to wars!

Do not put aside the things God has put in place just because you want things your own way – God has done this all for a reason and we need to stop and take notice!

Genesis 17:19 Then God said, “Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.”

God did not send Jesus on a whim at the time. He had been planning things all along about how He could build the church with Christ at the centre.

We often forget just how much God has done until we read about it over and over again, then it begins to sink in…

The timeline is put in place a very long time ago, despite all the things mankind would do in the meantime.

Yes, God cares for us that much!

Matthew 1:21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.

One of the things I find most amazing about God is how much He has done behind the scenes, setting so much up in place just for us, just for you.

He allowed a human mother to give birth to a human who was part of Him, who is part of Him; just because He loves us!

We do like to judge each other in the things we do, but God set things aside and allowed His Son to come and turn the tables over for us to be with Him and no longer separated from Him.
