There is there a voice?! Introduction: Mk 1:2-3 A messenger; will prepare, a voice of one calling. Jn 1:23 I am the voice of one calling. 1. Jonah 1:1. The word of the Lord Yet he fled, each cried out to own god, threw cargo over, below deck, asleep in chaos. Is the church there- in that condition are we? 2. Jonah 3:1 The word of the Lord came a second time. proclaim to it the message I give you. Jonah obeyed, had a word, was bold, after an encounter with Him ,you will never be the same again. You become a voice in a voice. 3. Lk 1:8-22 It was a duty, routine practice, Gabriel spoke, gave a message, Zechariah had a question of unbelief. Mary had a question of information. Zechariah was mute. Muted due to unbelief are we? I am Gabriel; I stand in the presence of God, I have been sent to speak to you and tell you this good news, And now you will be silent. Are we to make signs of muted reality to the lost, or do we have faith? 4. Lk 1:62 His name is John. Outside of family, no common name, as it is written, all filled with awe, hills, all talking about it! Conclusion: Jonah 2:8-9 Let our voices ring as we break the sound barrier of life! Stand in the presence of the Lord, there you will be a voice.
