IV. Power changes the rules of the game!
Matthew 28:1-
The definition of power is rewritten.
The betrayer gets paid
The masses turn on Jesus and shout crucify
The authorities succeed in killing Jesus (this is stressed)
The Roman guards push their macho narrative by belittling and beating Jesus
Satan flexes his chest when Jesus dies
The woman are crushed and in despair hopeless
But then something happens….
God's power shift is announced with an earthquake.
The betrayer commits suicide
The masses fall in love with Jesus
Powerless women now stand at the center of action, while the powerful guards faint.
The authorities panic and have to bribe the romans
The Roman guards faint look for help like lost little children
Satan is now under the power of not just Jesus but all that have him in their life.
RIGHT HERE we see a power shift…. from the power of muscle, military, money, politics and position… to the only power that really matters.
Gods power exercised in the Spiritual spiritual realm… the power that you and I both walk around with right now. So let God out of the box!
Yesterday we talked about authority over power…
But today we marry the two.
What brings power - obedience, obedience to Gods written word and his spoken word. You do what he has written and you do what he tells you to do.
And what brings authority - intimacy. The more time you spend with him, the more you know him. He loves when we get intimate with him… and his authority becomes easier to step into because we realize we didn’t earn it, we learned it. Intimacy means we have become more like Jesus… we have learned him to the point of becoming like him.
James 4:8 draw near to God….
Never before in the history of the church has there been an easier way to hear about God through social media, youtube, podcasts, online sermons…
But intimacy is actually turning all of those things off and simply talking to him and reading his word and listening.
