"Perfect Selection"

"Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people." (Psalms 89:19)
This is the second of six verses within this Psalm that reference Jesus; I typed the words just as they appear in my Bible so you could see the part of the reference and how it points to Him who is to come. Remember, this Psalm is about "God's Agreement with David," and as such, the main point of God's covenant was that David's throne would be established for ever, and we know how that all works out. But beyond that, God has more up His sleeve than just establishing an everlasting Throne; God is about reconciling the lost back to Himself, and He does that by selecting imperfect people to perform His perfect will. Are you where God wants you to be? I don't know, and I would be willing to bet, you don't know either! Okay, then let me ask you this: Do you think that you can actually disappoint God when you do wrong or when you sin against Him? Really? I know we feel as though we have disappointed Him, but in reality, we have only disappointed ourselves. (What you talking about Rich?) God knows way in advance what it is we are going to do, He is never surprised by our stupid choices or actions. Do you think that Jesus was disappointed that Peter denied Him three times? Absolutely not! He was praying for Peter; not because Peter was going to deny Him, but because of how Peter would react and feel for having denied knowing the Lord. We need to realize that God made His covenant with David before David sinned against Him with Bathsheba; and we need to understand that God knew in advance all that was going to happen. In God's covenant with David, He spoke about his son building a Temple, that son was to be born from Bathsheba, who was Solomon. More than that, God was also speaking about Jesus, who being born from the line of David would establish an everlasting Throne and Kingdom, for ever! Check out some of those characters that are listed in the line of David; some of which were some really bad boys and girls. Do you think that God was surprised by any of those characters? Really? I know I feel very shameful over a lot of stuff that I have done; but I am pretty sure that God was never surprised by any of it...
"And furthermore, it is not angels who will control the future world we are talking about. For in one place the Scriptures say, "What are mere mortals that you should think of them, or a son of man that you should care for him? Yet you made them only a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor. You gave them authority over all things." Now when it says "all things," it means nothing is left out. But we have not yet seen all things put under their authority. What we do see is Jesus, who was given a position "a little lower than the angels", and because he suffered death for us, he is now "crowned with glory and honor." Yes, by God's grace, Jesus tasted death for everyone. God, for whom and through whom everything was made, chose to bring many children into glory. And it was only right that he should make Jesus, through his suffering, a perfect leader, fit to bring them into their salvation. So now Jesus and the ones he makes holy have the same Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters." (Hebrews 2:5-11) NLT
