Curiosity that Changed a Life

Sermon by Pastor Brent Snook / Oct 30, 2022


Bible text: Luke 19:1-10 (NKJV)

1 Then Jesus entered and passed through a Jericho. 2 Now behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature. 4 So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was going to pass that way.

5 And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus,  make haste and come down, for today I must stay at your house.” 6 So he made haste and came down, and received Him joyfully. 7 But when they saw it, they all complained, saying,  “He has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner.” 8 Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by e false accusation, I restore fourfold.” 9 And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham; 10 “for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”


There must have been four things that ran through Zacchaeus’ mind 

HE SEES ME

Do you realize that nothing is hidden from God?

Read Job 31:4, Job 34:21, Proverbs 15:3, Jeremiah 23:24, Hebrews 4:13

HE KNOWS ME

God knows you and everything about you!

Read Psalm 139:1-12

God knows your sins…. but He also knows your needs.

HE WANTS ME

Read 1 Timothy 2:4, 1 Timothy 2:6, Hebrews 2:9

You’re not too wicked for God to save!

HE LOVES ME

Many people in the world wonder: DOES ANYONE LOVE ME?

Just as God loved Zacchaeus, HE LOVES YOU!
