TOPIC: GOD'S SURPRISING ANSWERS

TEXT:  "Oh, that you would rend the heavens! That you would come down! (Isa.64: 1)

"Rend the heavens" and come down" pleaded the Prophet  Isaiah. Make your name known by making the mountains shake and the nations tremble, he advised the Lord (Isaiah 64:1-3).
Isaiah wanted God to behave as he had in the past. Recalling the scripture about God's visit with Moses on Mt. Sinai, Isaiah longed for a repeat performance.
But God had already told Isaiah that he would be doing something new. "Behold, the former things have come to pass, and new things I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them(42:9)
The "something new" was Jesus! God did indeed come down. But not in Isaiah's lifetime. And not in dramatic fashion he longed for. "He will not cry out, nor raise His voice, nor cause His voice to be heard in the street"(42:2). He came in the unassuming form of an infant.
Many of us can remember a situation when God was amazingly timely in His response to our need. Like Isaiah, we want God to do the same thing again. But perhaps He has something else in mind. As you celebrate God's humble descent to earth, be aware that He came to change our hearts, not just our circumstances. God's answers to our prayers may exceed our expectations.
