A Divine Interruption - Numbers 22:21-35

This blurb may have interrupted something you’re trying to do. But now you’re reading about the very thing that you’d like to minimize. Interruptions. We live in a world where we are constantly being interrupted. A world where both the urgent and the trivial often interfere with the important. An incoming phone call intrudes on the in-person conversation that was scheduled weeks ago, but now, in this moment, that conversation will have to wait.

Of course, not all interruptions are created equal. Some can wait, while others need our immediate attention. Especially when the one seeking our attention is our Heavenly Father. It makes sense that when He “interrupts” our plans, whenever and wherever, we should drop whatever we’re doing and give Him our undivided attention. That’s what we will be looking at in our message today. A miraculous, divine interruption.

This Week's Sermon: "Do You See What I See?"

When you look at your circumstances today, what do you see? You may be overwhelmed by debt, discouraged by demands you can’t seem to fulfill, or facing an impossible situation.

Whatever your circumstances may be, the prophet, Elisha, had a servant who could relate to what you’re feeling. The servant woke up early one morning and, when he went outside, he looked up and saw an enemy army with horses and chariots surrounding him, and he cried out to Elisha in response, “Oh no! What shall we do?” But while the servant was panicking, Elisha remained completely calm, despite facing the exact same imminent threat.

How can two people experience the same set of circumstances, but one person looks at it with dread while the other faces it with confident peace? The story behind the miracle we’ll look at this week gives us the answer.
