*Many people proclaim their goodness, but who will find a faithful man?
Faithfulness is an essential dimension of life.
Without it, there is disaster, bitterness.
Faithfulness means being solid,
It means being trustworthy.
The Lord talks to us about fidelity because it’s a problem that’s not new.
It’s easy for men to slip away so easily as soon as their interests are threatened,
We can put aside years of love and friendship without remorse.
It’s zealous to spit so much on a story.
Jesus never fails to let us know that we can count on him.
Zacchaeus is a man in the Bible, a non-believer, a tax thief who got rich on the backs of his taxpayers.
When Jesus visited his town, Zacchaeus was curious to see him. He had heard of him, but his size was an obstacle.
So Zacchaeus climbed a sycamore tree and that’s how Jesus found him and decided to go to his house.
Seeing Jesus is one thing,
Hearing Jesus is one thing,
But coming into contact with Jesus changes everything.
The fact that Jesus entered Zacchaeus’ house gave this man a new identity, changed his reputation and gave him a new smell.
His heart, which had been of stone, became a heart of flesh.
The man who had been insensitive to the problems of others began to right his wrongs, and to give half his possessions to the poor.
Beloved, when Jesus enters our home, he brings joy where there was sadness.
He restores love where there was division,
He plants life where barrenness had weakened,
He repairs the breaches that were broken by words and deeds.
He rebuilds the covenant of grace and sows the fullness of his spirit.
Zacchaeus, who yesterday was rejected, accused and criticised, has become a subject of witness, restoration and reconciliation.
The Lord does not look at our weaknesses,
He does not make our failings a limit,
He is able to take us from the pit and make us the main stone.
This story reminds us that Jesus is the bearer of good news, and the gospel is not just for good people. God’s love is not given only to those who deserve it, like Zacchaeus.
His love is infinite, free and unconditional.
All you have to do is agree to receive it.
The Lord doesn’t look at your faults or your sins.
He just wants to enter Zacchaeus’ heart and make his home there.
He just wants this man to become a new person, a true child of God.
Jesus allows Zacchaeus to lean on him in complete security.
Jesus offers eternal life to Zacchaeus, who only sees before him a new opportunity to be reconciled with the Lord.
Talk of God’s faithfulness in good works.
Acts, 14:17 – though he never ceased to bear witness to what he is, doing good, giving you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, giving you food in abundance and filling your hearts with joy.
No matter what our faults, the Lord is faithful, he is love.
As long as we come back to him, he will always be ready to welcome us and show us a path of joy and stability.
The Lord is just, even though we are an unbelieving people who keep turning our backs on him and coming back to weep at his feet.
The Lord wants to put songs of joy on our lips, he wants to give us new hymns, but all we need to do is receive him and open our hearts to him.
He is trustworthy.
Good morning brothers and sisters.
Good day to you
