"Genuine Thanksgiving"(Luke 17:11-19)

 

Luke 17:11-19

 

Once a year, we make an effort to give thanks during Thanksgiving.  Yet, we are called to thankful always. It is easy to forget to be thankful, or better not to be genuinely thankful for what we receive. We can fall into the trap of believing that our hard work and efforts have made us successful. We can effortlessly forget how much God has done for us. The lepers show us how we can be genuinely thankful to God.

 

The first step of genuine thanksgiving is to have faith. The lepers had enough faith that they sought out Jesus because they believed Jesus would heal them.

 

And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.”

Luke 17:12-13 ESV

 

Leprosy was treated as a curse from God. Lepers were not allowed to interact with the rest of society, and they were outcasts, who had to remain hidden. To mingle with those who were not lepers could be met with violence including stoning. The result was that the lepers could only live outside the city away hidden from society.

 

When he saw them he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice;

Luke 17:14-15 ESV

 

Jesus tells them to see the priest because only the priest could declare them clean. In fact, the priests were the ones who determined who was clean and who had leprosy. It was only the priests who could give a clean bill of health to anyone they deemed leprous. However, the priests lived in the city, and the only way for the lepers to be declared clean was to see the priests in the city. These men could be stoned. Once again, the lepers needed to show faith.

 

We see that before Jesus healed them, He told the lepers to go to see the priests. The lepers were still plagued by leprosy while they went to the priests. It was while walking to the priests, they were healed. God gives the directions, but we still must take those first steps before the miraculous power of God can work. All the lepers are healed after their small act of faith.

 

The second step to genuine faith is harder because it involves humility.

 

and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?”

Luke 17:16, 18 ESV

 

It is only one leper who understands how much God has given him and how little he deserves  any mercy. Admitting that God is great, and His power can save us is something all people can do. The ten understood that God is all powerful, but it was only one who realized he did not deserve the healing. He realized that his faith was important, but ultimately, he did not deserve the healing. He could not control the healing, and he certainly could not manifest the healing by himself. He could only receive the healing after asking for it. It can be humbling when you realize just how much God loves you by giving you something beyond your control.

 

It is only when we realize the gap between us and God that we can truly have genuine thankful heart. We may know about who God is and what Jesus has done for us, but unless we understand the gap, we will not be truly grateful.

 

The third step in genuine thankfulness is to respond.

 

Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan.

Luke 17:15-16 ESV

 

This is how we should act. Responding to God's grace is done by glorifying God. It does not necessarily about giving gifts and tithes, it happens when we demonstrate our love to God in the world. We keep His commandments and love others. It will never repay what God has given us, but like the small steps of faith, our small daily actions can glorify God.

And the Lord shall descend
Even so it is well

Days of Elijah

CCLI Song # 1537904 Robin Mark 

Verse 1 
These are the days of Elijah 
Declaring the Word of the Lord 
And these are the days 
Of Your servant Moses 
Righteousness being restored 

And though these are days of great trials 
Of famine and darkness and sword 
Still we are the voice 
In the desert crying 
Prepare ye the way of the Lord 
 
Chorus  
Behold He comes Riding on the clouds 
Shining like the sun At the trumpet call 
So lift your voice It's the year of Jubilee 
And out of Zion's hill Salvation comes 
 
Verse 2  
And these are the days of Ezekiel 
The dry bones becoming as flesh 
And these are the days 
Of Your servant David 
Rebuilding a temple of praise 
 
And these are the days of the harvest 
The fields are as white in the world 
And we are the labourers 
In Your vineyard 
Declaring the Word of the Lord 

Chorus 
Behold He comes Riding on the clouds 
Shining like the sun At the trumpet call 
So lift your voice It's the year of Jubilee 
And out of Zion's hill Salvation comes 
 
Bridge 
There is no god like Jehovah 
There is no god like Jehovah 
There is no god like Jehovah 
There is no god like Jehovah 
(3X) 
There is no god like Jehovah 
There is no god like Jehovah 
There is no god like Jehovah (hey) 
 
Chorus 
Behold He comes Riding on the clouds 
Shining like the sun At the trumpet call 
So lift your voice It's the year of Jubilee 
And out of Zion's hill Salvation comes 
(3X) 
 
So lift your voice It's the year of Jubilee 
And out of Zion's hill Salvation comes 

Days Of Elijah
지금은 엘리야 때처럼

These are the days of Elijah,
Declaring the word of the Lord
지금은 엘리야 때처럼
주 말씀이 선포되고
And these are the days of Your servant Moses,
Righteousness being restored.
또 주의 종 모세의 때와 같이
언약이 성취되네

And though these are days of great trial,
Of famine and darkness and sword,
비록 전쟁과 기근과 핍박
환란 날이 다가와도
Still, we are the voice in the desert crying
"Prepare ye the way of the Lord!
우리는 광야의 외치는 소리
주의 길을 예비하라

Behold He comes riding on the clouds,
Shining like the sun at the trumpet call,
보라 주님 구름 타시고
나팔 불 때에 다시 오시네
Lift your voice, it's the year of jubilee,
And out of Zion's hill salvation comes.
모두 외치세 이는 은혜의 해니
시온에서 구원이 임하네

These are the days of Ezekiel,
The dry bones becoming as flesh,
또 에스겔의 환상처럼
마른 뼈가 살아나며
And these are the days of Your servant David,
Rebuilding a temple of praise.
또 주의 종 다윗의 때와 같이
예배가 회복되네

These are the days of the harvest,
The fields are as white in Your world,
추수할 때가 이르러
들판은 희어졌네
And we are the labourers in Your vineyard,
Declaring the word of the Lord!
우리는 추수할 일꾼 되어
주 말씀을 선포하리

Behold He comes riding on the clouds,
Shining like the sun at the trumpet call,
보라 주님 구름 타시고
나팔 불 때에 다시 오시네
Lift your voice, it's the year of jubilee, 
And out of Zion's hill salvation comes.
모두 외치세 이는 은혜의 해니
시온에서 구원이 임하네

There is no god like Jehovah 
There is no god like Jehovah
There is no god like Jehovah
There is no god like Jehovah 

Behold He comes riding on the clouds,
Shining like the sun at the trumpet call,
보라 주님 구름 타시고
나팔 불 때에 다시 오시네
Lift your voice, it's the year of jubilee,
And out of Zion's hill salvation comes.
모두 외치세 이는 은혜의 해니
시온에서 구원이 임하네

Lift your voice, it's the year of jubilee,
And out of Zion's hill salvation comes.
모두 외치세 이는 은혜의 해니
시온에서 구원이 임하네
