Summary

400 years. That's how long the people of God waited to hear from Him before that deafening silence was broken with a baby's cry. And yet, even while the people of God waited they held on to a fundamental truth. God is working while you wait. Here's the good news, He's still doing it. He's still at work in your life, no matter how long you've been waiting for a miracle. Cling to Him today and believe.

0:05.9	Passion City Church, including our gathering times in Atlanta and Washington,
0:10.2	DC. Visit us online at Passion City Church dot com. Today's talk comes from
0:16.4	Grant Partrick. So I'd like to start in an unusual place as we talk about
0:23.4	Christmas because there's a lot of great things in the Christmas story and we

1:35.8	was serving as priest before God, he was chosen by lot according to the custom
1:41.2	of the priesthood to go into the temple of the Lord and to burn incense. And when
