Passage: Luke 13:1-9
Service Type:

Today we will be looking at the reward that comes out of gracefully living in God’s expectations for our lives as we look at this week’s readings. We have been truly over blessed by God and all we need is to see it except it and embrace it. Hope this message blesses you as others have.

Introductory notes

 Sermon points

In our gospel text today is a very beautiful story of living in God’s graceful expectations… (He speaks about this using this very compelling parable… 

Let see the three points in this story…

We are God’s vineyard

Luke 13:6 Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it but did not find any.

God is patiently expecting

Luke 13:7 so he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, ‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?

Why are there no fruits?

Luke 13:8 ‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it.
