God’s Family Plan #

Mark 10:1-16

Introduction

I have titled the message God’s Family Plan, not because God is specifically outlining the idea for a family, but the entirety of this passage, is so necessary for Family matters, that I have dubbed it, God’s Family Plan. We literally have three separate instances that are back to back that I have stitched together for one message to help families.

A Psalmist Plea #

Psalm 109:1-5

Introduction

We are back to a Psalm, in which the Psalmist has a problem, and makes a request to God. This is a fairly easy and straight forward Psalm. Our outline is simple tonight, and yet there is much to be learned, and gained from this Psalm. We will only have time for a few places in which we can draw application tonight. There is certainly much more that could be drawn from this Psalm.

We have a great Psalm before us. It is easy reading, easily understood, and a great encouragement to the born again believers that walk with the Lord. It should be a blessing to every single person tonight.

We have a great Psalm before us. It seems to be straightforward. There is a lot of lessons that could be pulled from this Psalm. Each of my points could be fully explored more than we have time for in one evening.

I. A Picture of God #

A. Glorify God (1) #

i. Don’t lift up yourself! “Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us” #

  • Many people are taught to exalt themself, so others know who they are.
  • That flies in the face of God’s Word

ii. God is to be glorified “Unto thy name give glory” #

iii. For Mercy - #

  • The mercy of God, the saved, born again believer is not getting what he deserves.

Goodness of God #

Psalm 119:72

Introduction

Every portion of this chapter has been of great value and help. Confession time, sometimes as a preacher, I feel rushed, and want to move on to the next chapter, but there is something in every section for us. We should not get ahead of God, or skip forward, and miss out.

The goodness of God is on full display in this portion of the Psalm. It is mentioned more than you realize.

God’s Answer: No #

2 Corinthians 12
