* Speaker: Pastor Ambrose Nwogu
* Topic: God with us
* Text: Luke 19:1-5
* James 5:8 → "Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh."
* The time on "top of the tree" was a time of fervency, not a time of frivolity or Carelessness
* You must be careful, while on the vantage point "on top of the tree" waiting for Jesus to appear
* If a believer falls from his vantage point of faith, his condition will be worse off than when he started
* While those in the crowd were on Jesus, Jesus looked up and noticed Zaccheus
* There is no place that the eyes of the Lord cannot see
* 2 Chronicles 16:9 →"For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. You have done a foolish thing, and from now on you will be at war." (NIV)
* 1 Peter 3:12 → "For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil." (NIV)
* Proverbs 15:3 → "The eyes of the LORD are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good."
* Zaccheus went out just to get a glimpse of the Master not knowing that he will be noticed that day
* If your heart is prepared to see Jesus, He will notice you even when people do not notice you
* Deuteronomy 4:29 → "But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul."
* Jeremiah 29:13 → "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
* If you seek Him with the totality of your heart, you will definitely find Him
