Matthew 17:1-23
Inspired thots
The Lord can reveal things of the kingdom to anyone at anytime. It is indeed a privilege for Peter, James and John to witness the glory that surrounds Jesus at the mount and to hear the voice of God approving His Son. That experience probably set them on course in their ministry.
Certainly not everyone can walk that path, unless Jesus wills it. Even for myself.
But if God were willing to give me a wonderful heavenly experience, will I react and respond like the disciples or the people/Pharisees? Would I recognise God at work? (v12) Am I willing to walk the path that Jesus walked? That goes back to the last revelation 'take up my cross and follow Jesus' (16:24)
It all boils down to FAITH => Trust. When one does not trust God fully, there is a lack of faith. Conversely, where there is FAITH, we can move mountains... nothing is impossible for Man. Because Man is made in the image of God, and is loved by God, AND with God, nothing is impossible. (19:26)
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
