THE PRELUDE - STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE DIVINITY STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY This is one of the most important weekend in the world, a period that is set aside to remember and celebrate an event that change the future of humanity – the crucifiction, death and resurrection of Jesus and all that it represent. What does the crucifiction, death and resurrection of Jesus means to you? Today will also serve as a prelude to our new series STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE. We are going to see how the whole event that is marked globally this weekend is a process of Divinity (God) stepping into the future of humanity. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast -- all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world. Revelation 13:8 (NIV) - Jesus Christ is referred to as the Lamb of God who died for the sins of the world (John 1:29). - Jesus mission became clear to mankind only after He had been crucified on the cross. Yet the scriptures reveals in Revelations 13:8 that "the Lamb was slain from the creation of the world" - Peter repeats this truth in even more detail when he wrote about the precious blood of Christ. For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. 20 He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. 1 Peter 1:18-20 (NIV) - The reality is this - The blood of Jesus was shed for us before the creation of the world, but was only revealed to us when Jesus was crucified on the cross, died and rose again. Not even satan knew about the shed blood until then. This truth, once understood, should have great implications for our faith and victorious living over satan, sin and sickness. -God already stepped into this future we celebrate today thousands of years ago. Firstly Peter makes it clear (in verses 18 and 19 above) that we are "redeemed from the empty way of life by the blood of Christ" and that this was accomplished "before the creation of the world" In other words, the fall of mankind did not destroy God's purpose in creating mankind. God is omniscient (all knowing) and nothing takes Him unaware nor is He unprepared for any event. God does not go running after Satan trying to sort out the mess he (satan) creates. Rather, the blood of Jesus has already taken care of it. Through the blood of Jesus, God has already stepped into the future. There is nothing satan, sin or sickness can bring that the blood has not already made provision for. Our redemption is in the blood. The blood is God's answer to everything that satan throws at us. You can be sure that God has made certain that the blood of Jesus has enough authority and power to meet all mankind's needs. And you know what? Not even satan understood the redemptive power in the blood until after the death and resurrection of Jesus. God is always stepping into the future for us before we ever realize it. He paid the greatest sacrifice for us before we ever come into the consciousness of our need for it. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 (NIV) Stepping into the future – God’s Insurance policy for humanity It is as if to say, God had taken out an insurance policy before creating mankind. It is a fully comprehensive insurance that pays for all damages no matter what, and even promises to ?restore back as new?. That insurance is the blood of Jesus. The main strength of the insurance (just like any normal insurance policy) is that it was taken out before the incident. That is why it covers every thing. Jesus' death on the cross was not an after thought by God, rushed through after the event (of mankind falling into sin). No. It had been settled longtime before. Decide to live your life with the knowledge that God through the crucifiction, death and resurrection of Jesus stepped into the future to settle us for eternity! The knowledge of this alone, when received into our hearts can cause us to walk in the abundance of riches that Christ's death made available to us, and help us to make the best out of life.

STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE – Episode 2 THE PICTURE OF THE FUTURE A Case Study of Joseph Jacob (Reference: Genesis 37,39-50) Last weekend was an exciting prelude to our STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE series – it is a very important foundation for us to lay. Crossing the line of faith into believing that the death and resurrection of Jesus was a way of God stepping into our future (both earthly and eternal) and settled EVERYTHING is a foundational approach we need to have to step into the future. We are stepping beyond religion into the realities of how God wants us to live our lives. Let us consider the refernce for our focus: Genesis 37:2-11 - 2 This is the story of Jacob. The story continues with Joseph, seventeen years old at the time, helping out his brothers in herding the flocks…And Joseph brought his father bad reports on them. 3-4 Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons because he was the child of his old age. And he made him an elaborately embroidered coat. When his brothers realized that their father loved him more than them, they grew to hate him—they wouldn’t even speak to him. 5-7 Joseph had a dream. When he told it to his brothers, they hated him even more. He said, “Listen to this dream I had. We were all out in the field gathering bundles of wheat. All of a sudden my bundle stood straight up and your bundles circled around it and bowed down to mine.” 8His brothers said, “So! You’re going to rule us? You’re going to boss us around?” And they hated him more than ever because of his dreams and the way he talked. 9He had another dream and told this one also to his brothers: “I dreamed another dream—the sun and moon and eleven stars bowed down to me!” 10-11When he told it to his father and brothers, his father reprimanded him: “What’s with all this dreaming? Am I and your mother and your brothers all supposed to bow down to you?” Now his brothers were really jealous; but his father brooded over the whole business. - The future belongs to those who show and take responsibility - Joseph took responsibility ….he could show “I don’t care” attitude. Why is it difficult to sometimes take Personal Responsibility? The 'rights' mentality: I demand my rights. The 'victim' mentality: It's not my fault The 'entitlement' mentality: I deserve it - Stop blaming, stop complaining and stop giving excuses. - Do not live a life of excuse…ultimately, you do not have an excuse for not stepping into the future. The lazy man is full of excuses. “I can’t go to work!” he says. “If I go outside, I might meet a lion in the street and be killed!” Proverbs 22:13 (TLB) - Do not allow the picture of the present (the good, the bad and the ugly) to stop you from seeing the picture of the future. At each time of Joseph Jacob’s life, he had a present/current picture that could have held him back from looking forward to the picture of the future. JOSEPH'S PLEASANT AND UNPLEASANT PICTURES -So loved by his Father He was hated and unloved by his siblings -He had a coat of many colours The coat was taken from him -His father kept the picture of his future in his heart. -He was sold to slavery by his own siblings -He was successful and had favour even as a slave. -He was lied on by Potiphar’s wife. -In the prison he also had favour and given special treatment and was made the leader. -From slavery to prison (Now it seems to be getting worse) -He was successful with dream interpretation -He was forgotten by those that he helped To be able to picture the future, it is important not to be deterred or held back by the pictures of the present (the good, the bad and the ugly). “That’s why we live with such good cheer. You won’t see us drooping our heads or dragging our feet! Cramped conditions here don’t get us down. They only remind us of the spacious living conditions ahead. It’s what we trust in but don’t yet see that keeps us going. Do you suppose a few ruts in the road or rocks in the path are going to stop us?” 2 Corinthians 5:6-8 (MSG) Your present moment or experiences do not in any way look like what the future holds. What is your picture of the future? –Take note that we have never talked about “your future” but “the future” STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE is not about you…the child, spouse, family, or money you want to have. STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE is about how your life will benefit humanity…Your life becoming an instrument through which God will touch your world.

STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE – Episode 3 THE OPPORTUNITY COST OF THE FUTURE A Case Study of Joseph Jacob (Reference: Genesis 37,39-50) Last weekend we took a step forward in our STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE series – as we considered “The Picture of the Future”. We saw how taking personal responsibility for our life is critical to stepping into the future, we also learnt that the realities of our present circumstance shouldn’t be a prism through which see the picture. Our reference of focus this week is from Genesis 39:1-12 (MSG): After Joseph had been taken to Egypt by the Ishmaelites, Potiphar an Egyptian, one of Pharaoh’s officials and the manager of his household, bought him from them. As it turned out, GOD was with Joseph and things went very well with him. He ended up living in the home of his Egyptian master. His master recognized that GOD was with him, saw that GOD was working for good in everything he did. He became very fond of Joseph and made him his personal aide. He put him in charge of all his personal affairs, turning everything over to him. From that moment on, GOD blessed the home of the Egyptian—all because of Joseph. The blessing of GOD spread over everything he owned, at home and in the fields, and all Potiphar had to concern himself with was eating three meals a day. Joseph was a strikingly handsome man. As time went on, his master’s wife became infatuated with Joseph and one day said, “Sleep with me.” He wouldn’t do it. He said to his master’s wife, “Look, with me here, my master doesn’t give a second thought to anything that goes on here—he’s put me in charge of everything he owns. He treats me as an equal. The only thing he hasn’t turned over to me is you. You’re his wife, after all! How could I violate his trust and sin against God?” She pestered him day after day after day, but he stood his ground. He refused to go to bed with her. On one of these days he came to the house to do his work and none of the household servants happened to be there. She grabbed him by his cloak, saying, “Sleep with me!” He left his coat in her hand and ran out of the house. - To see the picture of the future come to fruition comes at a cost. Some measures of self-imposed discipline, delayed gratification is required if we must see our God-given dreams become a reality. -Joseph Jacob is a good example of one who’s willing to sacrifice the comfort /pleasures of the present in a quest to secure the possibilities of the future. Joseph’s story offers great insight into how important it is to pay the price by giving up the seemingly appealing alternative the present provides. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (TLB) 24 In a race everyone runs, but only one person gets first prize. So run your race to win. 25 To win the contest you must deny yourselves many things that would keep you from doing your best. An athlete goes to all this trouble just to win a blue ribbon or a silver cup,[a] but we do it for a heavenly reward that never disappears. 26 So I run straight to the goal with purpose in every step. I fight to win. I’m not just shadow-boxing or playing around. 27 Like an athlete I punish my body, treating it roughly, training it to do what it should, not what it wants to. Otherwise I fear that after enlisting others for the race, I myself might be declared unfit and ordered to stand aside. Luke 14:28-30 (MSG) Why it may be difficult at times to pay the price for the future? Uncertainty/Doubt about what the future holds. If the picture of the future is not compelling, there may be inertia in taking the steps necessary to secure the future. Fear of the unknown. Fear casts aspersion on the present; it also breeds feelings of pessimism that stifles the possibilities of the future. Resigning to fate. This is often accompanied with words such as “what will be, will be”. - The opportunity cost of the future is enveloped in words/ a mindset such as responsibility, strong commitment to learning and an investment of time, energy and other resources. - The opportunity cost of the future awakens us to answer questions such as: “What sacrifices will I make today to secure the future”? “What will I trade-off in the present if I must lay hold of the good tomorrow promises? - There’s no such thing as stumbling into the future - stepping into the future demands that our actions be deliberate, choices calculated and efforts synergized. 2 Corinthians 9:8 (TLB); Philippians 4:13 (TLB) Hold fast to the truth that you’ve been armed with strength, blessed with wisdom and provided with all that you will need to make the sacrifices necessary to secure the future. Whatever God calls to do, he provides the means to get it done. You are not on your own.

STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE – Episode 4 THE PATH TO THE FUTURE A Case Study of Joseph Jacob (Reference: Genesis 37,39-50) Last weekend was a great and reflective time as we continued the STEPPING INTO THE FUTURE series –considering “THE OPPORTUNITY COST OF THE FUTURE. We were reminded to always pay the corresponding price for the future we look forward to. Today, we are going to consider the characteristic nature of the Path To The Future. This will help us ensure we are taking the right steps into the future. We are going to examine an over view of Joseph Jacob path to the future as a case study of our today’s talk. Genesis 37 (TLB) 8 His brothers responded, “So you think you will be our king, do you? Do you actually think you will reign over us?” And they hated him all the more because of his dreams and the way he talked about them. 18 When Joseph’s brothers saw him coming, they recognized him in the distance. As he approached, they made plans to kill him. 19 “Here comes the dreamer!” they said. 20 “Come on, let’s kill him and throw him into one of these cisterns. We can tell our father, ‘A wild animal has eaten him.’ Then we’ll see what becomes of his dreams!” 21 But when Reuben heard of their scheme, he came to Joseph’s rescue. “Let’s not kill him,” he said. 22 “Why should we shed any blood? Let’s just throw him into this empty cistern here in the wilderness. Then he’ll die without our laying a hand on him.” Reuben was secretly planning to rescue Joseph and return him to his father. Genesis 39 (NLT) 10 She kept putting pressure on Joseph day after day, but he refused to sleep with her, and he kept out of her way as much as possible. 11 One day, however, no one else was around when he went in to do his work. 12 She came and grabbed him by his cloak, demanding, “Come on, sleep with me!” Joseph tore himself away, but he left his cloak in her hand as he ran from the house. 16 She kept the cloak with her until her husband came home. 17 Then she told him her story. “That Hebrew slave you’ve brought into our house tried to come in and fool around with me,” she said. 18 “But when I screamed, he ran outside, leaving his cloak with me!” 19 Potiphar was furious when he heard his wife’s story about how Joseph had treated her. 20 So he took Joseph and threw him into the prison where the king’s prisoners were held, and there he remained. 21 But the Lord was with Joseph in the prison and showed him his faithful love. And the Lord made Joseph a favorite with the prison warden. 22 Before long, the warden put Joseph in charge of all the other prisoners and over everything that happened in the prison. How would you respond if your family despised you so much that they arranged for you to be sold to a slave trader? How would you feel if your boss, whom you had faithfully served with impeccable integrity, was quick to believe a lie about you and subsequently have you thrown into jail? How would you feel if after standing for what you believe with respect to your faith and you expect God to show up on your case, but instead you were rewarded with prison? How would you react if a friend broke a promise and as a result, you spent several years in confinement? This was Joseph’s path to the future…it is a case study for us. You can read the full account of his sufferings in Genesis 37–50. In all these, God Had a Purpose…By Joseph’s own testimony, the sufferings of Joseph—physical, mental, and emotional agonies—had been allowed by God so that Joseph could fulfill God’s plan: to save many lives. “But as for you [Joseph’s brothers who had sold him into slavery many years previously], ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive” (Genesis 50:20). Joseph Rejected Bitterness and Chose to Forgive…this is the path to the future. As Joseph responded to suffering with faith, meekness, and humility, God molded and shaped a leader. And that leader would not only end up saving his betrayers’ lives, but he would fully forgive them and provide abundantly for their needs. Such is the potential when a man chooses to reject the empty revenge of bitterness and instead to embrace the benefits of suffering. For the path that leads to the future, sometimes unpleasant things to us (Joseph)…our consolation is in Isaiah 43:2 (NLT) When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. |
