Question: Do you see the miracle of the message?
Hebrews 1:1-3 "Long ago in many ways and at many times God's prophets spoke his message to our ancestors. But now at last, God sent his Son to bring his message to us. God created the universe by his Son, and everything will someday belong to the Son. God's Son has all the brightness of God's own glory and is like him in every way. By his own mighty word, he holds the universe together. After the Son had washed away our sins, he sat down at the right side of the glorious God in heaven." (CEV)
The miracle of the message is that God speaks to us today so that we can know Him and draw near to Him!

1. God has been speaking throughout history.
Moses in the burning bush.
Israelites from the smoke and fire on the mountain.
Elijah in a still quiet voice.
And even through a donkey.
However, there was 400 years of silence.
