ROMANS 9:6-13 Did God Fail With Israel?
6 Well then, has God failed to fulfill his promise to
Israel? No, for not all who are born into the nation of
Israel are truly members of God’s people! 7 Being
descendants of Abraham doesn’t make them truly
Abraham’s children. For the Scriptures say, “Isaac is
the son through whom your descendants will be
counted,” though Abraham had other children, too.
8 This means that Abraham’s physical descendants
are not necessarily children of God. Only the
children of the promise are considered to be
Abraham’s children. 9 For God had promised, “I will
return about this time next year, and Sarah will have
a son.”
10 This son was our ancestor Isaac. When he
married Rebekah, she gave birth to twins. 11 But
before they were born, before they had done
anything good or bad, she received a message from
God. (This message shows that God chooses
people according to his own purposes; 12 he calls
people, but not according to their good or bad
works.) She was told, “Your older son will serve your
younger son.” 13 In the words of the Scriptures, “I
loved Jacob, but I rejected Esau.”
R Jones 4.12.26 Series: Rom 9-11 Rom 9:6
Is God A Failed Parent To Israel?
Parents are responsible for the process not the outcome of children,
so too, God takes responsibility for His actions not Israel's.
If you think God failed to be a good Parent there are some
things you need to consider:
1. It’s a mistake to assume all who claim to be
God’s Children are indeed His children.
2. It’s a mistake to assume God’s promise to
produce His Children is conditional.
3. It’s a mistake to assume that all Jews are
spiritual Jews.

Application:Prayer-Care-Share Outreach At Beulah
---this month we PRAY.
It is prayer that enables the evangelism of your
Family and friends.
“Prayer is fundamental to evangelism…
Evangelism that is birthed out of prayer produces much fruit,
But, evangelism without prayer is largely sterile.”
I used to coach baseball with a man named Todd. His son & my son were
on the same All-star & travel teams. Todd was a handsome, confident,
successful businessman with an attractive wife & two attractive kids. He also
was a never-attend-church kind of guy. He was ice cold when it came to a
discussion of anything spiritual. I put Todd on my list & prayed for him daily,
especially during baseball season. Because he wouldn’t really let me talk to him
about God, I mostly just prayed for him. I prayed for opportunities to talk to him
about things other than baseball. I prayed that I would just happen to see him
in a restaurant or around town. I prayed that Todd would become aware of his
emptiness. I prayed that God would allow circumstances to bring Todd to
attention. I prayed events would conspire to make him aware of his needs for
God.
A few weeks later my phone rang, Todd said, “Hey, I was wondering, does
your invitation to church still stand?” “Sure, what’s going on?” And guess what,
the ice cream man broke down & began to cry. His wife asked him for a
separation. I simply listened and quietly prayed for him and made plans to see
him in church on Sunday. He looked very uncomfortable. At the end of the
service about giving all to Jesus he was receptive. A small group gathered
around him, prayed, and Todd accepted Jesus’ free gift of eternal life. Up to this
time I had not been able to show him care for he was self-assured and
independent. I had not found the right opportunities to share Christ because he
knew how to evade it. BUT, I did know how to pray. Effective evangelism always
starts with prayer to engage God.
Simply put, prayer evangelism is talking to God about people,
and then talking to people about God. ~ David Early
