The Boy Jesus
The family is now living in Nazareth
make the annual trip to Jerusalem
V 39-42
after the fast they would caravan home
women and children in the front setting the pace
men in the rear
12 year old boys could be anywhere
V 43-45
they found Jesus in the temple
V 46
V 47 the teachers were astounded
V 40 Jesus was given grace and wisdom from on high
grace is given to those who are humble
grace is given to those who ask for it by faith
Jesus has been studying the scriptures
The old testament the Law
Realizing the old Testament is a shadow and prophecy of the New Covenant
And down there for the Passover, watching Joseph put his hand on the head of the lamb the the priest sacrifices
I wonder if Jesus at this time of 12 years old knows that he is the sacrificial Lamb?
SOO Jesus is missing from the caravan
Mary and Joseph head back to Jerusalem the next morning
get there in the eve start looking for the boy on the third morning
finally found Him that eve at the temple
V 48
Your father and I were worried,
the decade that followed the miraculous birth has dulled the realization of who their son was
there have been other children born at this time
with Jesus response we are going to see 2 things that need to be learned
1 the Identity of Jesus
2 the business of Jesus
read 49-52
Pray
Identity
Who are you?
Your answer will determine how you act
how you respond to situations
how you will feel
how look at yourself
how you will behave
how your outcome will be
Who are you?
how do you see yourself?
What have you been taught about yourself?
Jesus identifies Himself as God
V 49
Jesus calls the Father My Father
Mary said that Joseph was His Father
V 48
But Jesus knows differently
no one at that time would so such a thing
Jesus calls Himself the God the Son
even at the age of 12 He knows who He is
and the teachers of Jerusalem know there is something special about Him
Do you know who you are??
Who are you?
someone who grew up always being called a looser would bring that trait with them into adulthood
When we become a christian we are given a new Identity
We are Chosen
We are Adopted
We become a Child of God
Heirs with Jesus
it’s all a matter of perception — how do you see your self
your behavior/ attitude will be determined by who you see your self as
we are to become the person God has made us
we are not self identifying ourselves
but we are displaying who God made us into
Another thing we see in Jesus, in the statement to His parents is ..
About My Fathers Business
after a night of prayer Jesus chose His disciples
in the garden He was praying to the Father
often Jesus went to the secluded places to pray
God gave Jesus a work to do
and He has given each Christian his or her own work
our God given purpose
we are His workmanship
His poem, His statue, His masterpiece
He Chose us, He created us, He redeemed us
He made us whole/ Holy
He separated us to Himself
He made a masterpiece, one of a kind,
You were made by God For God
He made us into the person to do something special
God appointed Good works
Does your life reflect a person who is created, owned, and given purpose?
Spurgeon Comments: All my interests are safe in Jehovah’s hands.
God is concerned in all that concerns his servants.
He will see to it that none of their precious things fail of completion."
We see Jesus doing Good Works
Jesus now works His works through you
You are his hands , feet, Mouth, and ears
God the Father formed you into the person Jesus uses to do the works that He wants done
through the Holy Spirit in you to have the desire and the will to do these works
Jesus knew his purpose and it came from the Father
Jesus knew that He had to be about His Fathers Business
Jesus knew who His real Father was and who He was
Who Are You?
are you what your history says that you are?
a looser, deadbeat, wont amount to anything
and you see life through those lenses
