Lessons from the Edomites betrayal of Judah

God will do something significant when His Spirit touches something that looks small and inconsequential.

The Gospel of the Kingdom - Message 91 - Little Ones & Lost Sheep - Matthew 18:1-14. In Matthew 18, Jesus teaches and shows us what our relationships should look like in the Kingdom of God. We are disciples and we are family – brothers and sisters in Christ. Jesus tells us how to get along as we grow together in grace.

The New Testament is clear that Christ's flock is numbered among the few not the many. Christ's words, "Fear not, little flock," are counter-intuitive to everything we think. In America especially, we think to be little is an indicator of failure; it's the big churches that God likes and blesses, or so we think. But that is not the New Testament witness; rather, we read that Christ's flock is small, it is a remnant of the remnant, and as we approach the day of his return this will become only more apparent.

An historical record was found verifying that King Cyrus had issued a decree authorizing the rebuilding of the Temple. So King Darius issued a decree that the rebuilding could continue and that the Persian leaders in that region were not only to allow it to continue, but were also to provide the resources and whatever was needed for the completion of the project and the worship that would take place at the Temple. The rebuilding project was completed in 516, 70 years after the destruction of Solomon's Temple by the Babylonians. The people of God then rejoiced with great joy as they dedicated the Temple and observed Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The LORD was the source of their joy.

Intro: God's greatness in the day of small things God reveals His greatness in a small voice. God reveals His greatness in a small remnant.

The Scripture: Genesis 2:4-9 [4] These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens. [5] When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up—for the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there was no man to work the ground, [6] and a mist was going up from the land and was watering the whole face of the ground—[7] then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature. [8] And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. [9] And out of the ground the LORD God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. (ESV)
