He's Got It

I've been doing some preliminary study for the first message in this year's Christmas series.  (I'm going on record right now…this will be the most awesome, amazing Christmas EVER at ACC!)

In the first message, I'm going to unpack several Old Testament prophecies about Jesus.  If you don't think that sounds exciting, then you'd better be there so we can prove you wrong.

One thought really struck me as I was studying today:  He's got it.

It is amazing to consider how God choreographed the coming of His Son…all the way down to the smallest detail.  The coming of Christ was prophesied thousands of years in advance…and the details in those prophecies are mind-boggling.

This same God that arranged all of history to pave the way for His Son is in control of my life.  He's not worried about the things that worry me.  He's not wringing His hands, wondering how things will turn out.  He already knows.  It's under His control.

He's got it.

I just need to quit trying to take it back from Him. That's essentially what worry is.  It's trying to take something out of God's control and place it under my control…which is incredibly stupid.

All of us would do well to remember this simple truth.

He's got it.

Take a breath.  Let it go.  If you try to control it, it will produce anxiety.  If you allow God to control it, it will produce peace.

He's got it.
