Who Lives My Life?
Galatians 2:20
Introduction: A daughter of a respectable family wanted to marry a man who did not even have a job and whose future seemed uncertain. Her parents were so angry. The whole family was trying to stop her, but this was the only thing she said, ?쏛re you going to live my life for me? I?셫 living my own life. No matter how I live, this is my life, and it has nothing to do with all of you.??When I heard about this episode, a shocking question hit my heart. Who is really living my life?
1. I live my own life
혻혻 1) This is how the devil tempted Adam
??(1) You don?셳 need to live as a servant of God (Ge 2:16-17)
혻혻혻혻혻 (2) Live an independent life as God. Become God (Ge 3:4-5)
혻혻혻혻혻 (3) Live your own life
혻혻혻혻혻혻 - Adam was deceived by the devil
혻혻 2) This is how the devil put Jesus to the test
혻혻혻혻혻 ?쏽ou are the Son of God. Aren?셳 you equal to God? Make your own
??decision and follow your own will.??
혻혻혻혻혻 (1) Tell these stones to become bread and eat it (Mt 4:4)
혻혻혻혻혻 (2) Throw yourself down from the highest point of the temple (Mt 4:7)
혻혻혻혻혻 (3) Bow down and worship me (Mt 4:10)
혻혻혻혻혻혻 - Jesus confessed until the last, ?쏮y life belongs to God.??(Jn 8:29, Mk 14:36)
혻혻 3) If you live your own life
혻혻혻혻 (1) Become a servant of the devil ??a servant of greed, secularity,
??and the appetite of the flesh (Eph 2:1-3, 1Jn 2:16, Jas 1:15)
혻혻혻혻혻 (2) Evil temptation, sin, slave of arrogance, heavy burden (Isa 64:6, Jas 4:14, Ro 7:24)
혻혻혻혻혻 (3) The target of God?셲 rage ??eternal judgment of hell (Jn 8:24, Rev 21:8)
2. I live my life with God
혻혻 - The life of those who never concede their independence before God
혻혻 1) The life of King Saul (human-centered belief)
??He did not fully dedicate himself to God even though he was chosen
??and anointed by God and became the king
(1) Samuel was the one who should have made a sacrifice to God,
but Saul gave a burnt offering to God, which wasn?셳 his duty
(belief of opportunism) (1 Sa 13:13-14)
혻혻 2) Human-centered belief that appeared again (1 Sa 15:19, 22-23) (1 Sa 15:2-3, 10-11)
3. God lives my life
혻혻 - God lives our lives when we empty our hearts and accept Him as our
?? Master with complete obedience (Gal 2:20) (Mt 6:31-33, Ro 8:31-32)
혻혻 1) The childhood of David
??(1) It would have been impossible for David to kill the lion and
??bear if God did not live David?셲 life (1 Sa 16:13)
혻혻혻혻혻 (2) As a teenager, David could not kill Goliath in his own strength
??(1 Sa 17:34-37, 45-47)
Conclusion: (Matthew 11:28-29). A tender and humble heart obeying the Master is a heart that believes and relies on the Master. The Lord will live your life if you accept Him as your Master in complete obedience.
