In my time with God this morning I began to realize the teacher and coach side of Christ. Within every important message or warning or statement he repeats it over and over again. This is much like a good teacher or coach who will put a strict emphasis on the basic foundations of important knowledge. As we know God allows us the opportunity to transform that knowledge into wisdom by applying it to our lives, and what better way to apply a concept than one that has been pounded into our thoughts, hearts and minds. I was reading Jeremiah this morning and God gave a warning to all that they needed to fall under the yoke of the King of Babylon, well with in that chapter it is repeated 3 times for the countries to one bow to the new King and two do not listen to your mediums, prophets and sorcerers. God wanted people to make it through this time and he provided a way and not only did he provide a way, but also placed someone in their lives to share this truth. He does that for us, every time I have been down or feel attacked or unsure, God uses people to share his truth in my life, over and over. It is amazing how different people can say the same thing, give the same advice, because we have a Lord of repetition. He wants these ways of living to sink into our souls, minds and bodies. We are created to live a linear life walking a path that keeps us from routine, and keeps us in obedience. We know we all fall short of the Glory and they we are all sinners, but I want to take Gods teaching technique of repetition and say this… We are His Beloved… We are His Beloved… We are ALL His Beloved!!! Like Timothy Keller says ” We are all so flawed Christ HAD to die for us, however we are so LOVED that He WANTED to die for us.” AMEN and AMEN
Repetition, Repetition, Repetition
