Facing the deepest issue of life -Facing the deepest issue of life -(Rabbi Zsuya’s Story(Rabbi Zsuya’s Story

• Many years ago there was a beloved Jewish Rabbi named Zsuya.

• He was renowned throughout the world for his gifted insights as a scholar, teacher and compassionate leader.

• At the time of Rabbi Zsuya death, his protégées gathered at his bedside.

• During emotional moment, the Rabbi began to weep.

• One of his disciples asked: “Why are you crying Rabbi? If anyone is assured of a place in haven, it’s you. You are a great teacher and lived a life worthy of the book”.

• Rabbi turned to his protégée and said:

• “I will tell you why I weep. If when I approach the gates of heaven the angel who meets me asked:

• Why are you not Moses? I shall answer with conviction; I was not born to be a Moses

• If the angel challenges me: Why did you not perform the feat of Elijah?

• I shall firmly respond: My mission was not the same one Elijah was sent to accomplish

• Then Rabbi Zsuya looked up and said: There is one question I fear being unable to answer and that is:

• Why are you not Rabbi Zsuya?”

• This allegory speaks to the deepest issue of our lives.

• Timothy, my son, I am giving you this command in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by recalling them you may fight the battle well. 1Timothy 1: 181Timothy 1: 18

3 key factors on destiny3 key factors on destiny

• Godly destiny is discovered and unveiled through prophetic revelation

• Individual destiny comes with a price tag and must be paid individually

• No destiny is fulfilled in isolation – your destiny is attached to master plan of God for His creation.

• For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family[a] in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,  to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever Ephesians 3: 14 - 20

2. Walking in Love2. Walking in Love

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh ----- But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law – Galatians 5:16, 22, 23

3. 3. Activating Principle 1 – 2 - 1 Activating Principle 1 – 2 - 1 of the Bible interpretation of the Bible interpretation

Key point: God called us individually to become indivisible one in His son

Example (So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them – Genesis 1: 27

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing

her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— for we are members of his body. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church – Ephesians 25 - 32

Life ApplicationLife Application• Marrige will not function as God’s ordains it

until both lay everything down to become WHOLE In Christ

• All must lay down personal agenda and vision to come under ONE – for RCC as an Apostolic centre to fulfill its destiny

• God plan for us is to come to the full maturity of Christ and do more than He did in the flesh

• Your destiny will always make room for you

• So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.  Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ Ephesians 4: 12 16
