Introduction

• We continue this seasonal series by looking at some events that took place about a month after Jesus was born
• We see the ordinary suddenly transformed by the intervention of people who were listening to God

Jesus' Presentation (v 21-24)

• Mary and Joseph obediently followed what God required of them
• Jesus was not redeemed but consecrated to the Lord

Simeon (v 25-35)

• Simeon was an ordinary person who had given his life totally over to serving God
• He was guided by the Spirit to be in the right place at the right time Simeon (v 25-35)
• Simeon saw that Jesus was salvation for ALL people
• People will be either exalted or humbled depending on their response to God's salvation

Anna (v 36-40)

• Anna was listening to God and was in the right place at the right time

Application

• What have we learnt this morning
• The importance of allowing ourselves to be guided by the Holy Spirit
• You are never too old to serve God
• There are only two options in our response to Jesus
