Bathsheba: When We Fail to Keep our Promises (19 of 49)
Series: Discovering David's Spiritual Secret
John Barnett
Please open with me to Matthew 1.
In our study of the lessons God has given us from the life of David His servant, we have come to a woman named Bathsheba. Bathsheba is only mentioned by name in the Old Testament (11 times). But for a very special purpose she is also found in the New Testament.
In America we celebrate moms in many different ways; but there is a list of mothers that God has honored in a most unusual way.
God has singled out and highlighted five mothers out of all those hundreds described in His Word. And He placed them in a special place—in the pathway through which Christ came. Please open with me to Matthew 1.
Have you ever studied the women with whom God chose to surround Christ's coming to earth? I am talking about the highly unusual presence of five special women included in His genealogy in Matthew 1. It is interesting that no women are listed in any of the genealogical records of the Old and New Testaments except for Matthew's. Matthew 1:1-16 lists five special mothers in the line awaiting the coming of the Promised One.
Women weren't highly regarded in ancient times; they lived in a man's world. This fact made life very difficult for them. God profiles these five courageous and gifted women because they were a part of God's team. Their lives were part of God's plan to bring a ray of light to herald the sunrise on the night of sin that had come into our world. Through their line, the promised Savior was going to be supernaturally born!
Five women in a long list of genealogical records, all of whom have something in common. Each of them, during their lifetime, were the subject of moral scandal. Each of them would be what we may call—stained by sin.
