Week 8 - The Journey Day 7
"Amen, I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation." Matthew 23:36
Jesus is proclaiming the truth and also fulfilling scripture. Listen to Jesus as He proclaims the word of God, listen to His passion and conviction in His voice, He calls a spade a spade. Those listening have to ponder these words and search themselves out.
"Therefore, behold, I send to you prophets and wise men and scribes; some of them you will kill and crucify, some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and pursue from town to town, so that there may come upon you all the righteous blood shed upon earth, from the righteous blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, the son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar." Matthew 23:34-35
God sends them prophets, wise men and scribes, they will kill and crucify Jesus, they will scourge Him and pursue Him from town to town to catch Him in a trap. The trials of life will catch all of us, yet in these situations we can have peace if we know Truth. Jesus fulfilled scripture and the new age is upon us, be prepared to speak of your joy. Each day with God is one day closer to Heaven.
What is God saying to me? Some days are meant to test you, will you ponder the life I have for you. Will you listen even though I do not respond. I am God and so is Jesus, we are one, we can not be separated from each other.
Dear Father, I like when You give me words to ponder, I like it when the treasure isn't the words but spending time together seeking insight. Thank You Father for these days, for the time to listen and put priorities into place. Thank You for blessing this day, for never being far away and for always loving each of us as Your creation, made in Your image. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Heaven, Pray for us.
