Jesus Is For Losers! Luke 22:31-32

The Rage of Satan Personal agent of evil: “Satan” Desires to destroy: “to sift y o u (pl.) like wheat” Power & authority limited: “…has demanded permission”

The Concern of Jesus Intimate concern for his own: “Simon, Simon…” Intercedes for his own: “I have prayed for you”

The Failure of Peter Disregarded Christ’s warning Zeal blinded him to his own capacity for sin (cf. Mark 14:29) God’s plan for his people includes their failures: “when you’ve turned, strengthen your brothers…”

Significance Same warning (1 Peter 5:8) Take heart! Christ intercedes for us (Heb. 7:25; Rom. 8:33-34 ) God has a plan for your failures

Just as you are Just a wretch like me Jesus is for losers Grace from the blood of a tree Just as we are At a total loss Jesus is for losers Broken at the foot of the cross Just as I am Pass the compass, please Jesus is for losers I'm off about a hundred degrees Just as I am In a desert crawl Lord, I'm so thirsty Take me to the waterfall Jesus is for Losers
