"Honey From The Rock

THE OPPOSITE OF ISAIAH. FOR IN JEREMIAH WE FIND

THE PROMISE OF THE ABSENCE OF GOD.

B. YES ... GOD PROMISES TO BE ABSENT FORM OUR LIFE

UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS. HE PROMISES TO LEAVE

US WITHOUT ANY SENSE OF HIS FELLOWSHIP.

C. ALL OF WHICH, IS THE MESSAGE OF JEREMIAH.

D. FOR JEREMIAH WAS SENT TO DECLARE TO THE PEOPLE OF

GOD THAT THEIR CITY WAS LOST AND AS A RESULT OF

their DISOBEDIENCE .... THEY WERE GOING INTO

CAPTIVITY FOR 70 YEARS.

E. GOD ALWAYS KEEPS HIS PROMISES. FOR THE BIBLE TELLS

US THAT GOD IS FAITHFUL; AND HE CAN NOT LIE (Titus

1:2 & Heb. 10:23)

*******************TAKE 5 BEATS*****************

MOVE 6: FOR WHO CAN EVER FORGET THE PROMISES GOD

MADE TO David (in Psalm 89:3,4,35,36 & 2 Sam.

7:12) FOR GOD WORD SAYS ....

A. “I HAVE MADE A COVENANT WITH MY CHOSEN.

B. I HAVE SWORN UNTO DAVID MY SERVANT.

C. THY SEED WILL I ESTABLISH FOR EVER,A ND BUILD-UP

THY THRONE TO ALL GENERATIONS ...

D. I HAVE SWORN BY MY HOLINESS THAT I WILL NOT LIE

UNTO DAVID. HIS SEED SHALL ENDURE FOREVER... AND

HIS THRONE AS THE SUN BEFORE ME.

MOVE 7: THEREFORE ... IN OUR TEXT TODAY TODAY ... WE

FIND A PSALM THAT SAYS (IN ESSENCE) WHEN WE

ARE WEAK ... OR STRONG ... THE LORD IS OUR

ROCK ...

A. HE’S OUR ROCKY WALL, BLOCK OF STONE ... HE’S OUR

STRENGTH, ...

B. THE PSALMIST ENDS ON A SWEETNOTE ... by saying GOD

IS MY HONEY FROM THE ROCK....

C. Now ... my brothers and sisters ... it’s

impossible to think of HONEY WITHOUT THINKING OF

BEES. MOST OF YOU KNOW THAT THERE ARE 3 TYPES OF

BEES (20-8000 per hive)....

D. QUEEN BEES (one per hive and her main function is

to produce bees),WORKER BEES (do all the different

task needed to maintain the hives), AND DRONES

(male bees which don’t have stingers)

E. BEES FIND CREVICES TO BUILD THEIR HIVES AND TO

MAKE THEIR HONEY.... THEY ARE SO CREATIVE ... THAT

THE WORKER BEE CONTRUCT THEIR HOMES EVEN IN A ROCK

....

F. ON LAST EVENING ... MY WIFE GOT THIS GRAND IDEA TO

WALK APSAN MOUNTAIN ... I HAD RUN IT BEFORE WITH MY

UNIT ... SO I DECIDED TO ACCOMPANY HER.

G. WHILE ON THE WALK IN THE MOUNTAIN, AT ONE POINT, WE

HAD TO FIGHT OFF BEES THAT THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO

DO HARM TO their HIVES.

H. FOR YOU SEE .... THE BEES HAD BUILD A HIVE IN THE

CREVICE OF THE ROCK IN THE MOUNTAIN ...
