Jesus Turns the World Upside Down (Meeting with Jesus 2-5)

The unbelieving world that we live in has a way of thinking, speaking, and doing. The world has its own values and order. Sadly, we can sometimes think, speak, and act like the world.

• We lift up the high and put down the low
• We honor to the rich and dishonor the poor
• We think salvation is for the great not for the weak.

As Mary celebrates Christ’s coming in Luke 1:51-56, she reminds us of how Jesus turns the world upside down. He has come to re-order the world, to change our way of thinking, speaking, and doing.

JESUS OVERTURNS THE WORLD'S ORDER

• He dethrones the mighty (52)
• He enthrones the lowly (52)
• He fills the hungry (53)
• He empties the rich (53)
• He helps Israel (54)
• He keeps his promises (55)
• His mother is a poor unknown country girl (56)

JESUS OVERTURNS THE SPIRITUAL ORDER

• His strong arm defeats the proud (51)
• His strong arm delivers the weak (55)

Has Jesus turned your world upside down so that you think, speak, and act like him rather than like the world.
