But whom say ye that I am?


Jesus H. ChristBut whom say ye that I am?”

Matthew 16:15 says: “He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?”

In the world there are people who have differing images of who Jesus is. Some see Him as a healer because He has healed them.

Others see Him as a God who blesses because He has blessed them over and over.

Some see Him as one who has forsaken them because of the experiences they have had and the many situations they have encountered in life. They believe Jesus did not come through for them. They believe He does things for others, but He does not do anything for them. This is very sad.

There are many other images of Jesus around the world in our churches, in our communities, and in our homes. The most important image of Jesus is found in the Bible. The Bible is a reflection of who He is, a reflection that is unchangeable. What the Word says Jesus is, He is, and what it says He will do, He will do. What the Bible says Jesus wants to do, He wants to do. So today, erase every image that is contrary to the Word, and look at the scripture to see clearly who He is.

Look at Our Lord And Savior Jesus Christ  anew!

Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28)

Little Chukwuemeka is a very good example of how kids think. He doesn’t ask his parents where his morning, afternoon or evening meal will come from. Neither does he fret over his clothing or shelter. He assumes all these things are his natural right and true to this they are.

It is ironic that most of us adults do not see God in this way. We end up doing all the worrying for God. Jesus said “Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me. For I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest upon your souls”.

The lesson here is simple and straight forward; the rest Our Lord Jesus Christ is talking about is not just our salvation, it covers every area of our lives, our finance, health and family. Let us learn to rest in the Lord. We can’t worry and “add a cubit to our height”. The carrier of the load is not complaining, why do you worry? Peter said; cast your burden upon the Lord. Why not pray and trust Him!

Stop carrying God’s load, He is not complaining!

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

There is a friend that sticks closer than a brother

THERE IS A
FRIEND THAT STICKS CLOSER THAN A BROTHER

…….There is a friend that sticketh
closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24)

In this
world, we all have friends – people who we relate with, talk with, share with,
pray with and whose company we enjoy. But even the best of friends may
sometimes let you down or disappoint you in your hour of need; not because they
want to, but because they may be unavailable, or not have the right words to
say to you at that time. Then of course, it’s possible for them to get tired of
your “issues” and eventually give up on you, because they feel you aren’t going
to change.

But there’s
only ONE Friend that’ll never disappoint, fail, or give up on you! He is never
tired of you! His Name is JESUS CHRIST!
Those who know Jesus Christ as a friend don’t seek the help or favour of men! What
you need is to have a private, personal relationship with Him. And you don’t
need to go looking for Him, for He lives in you! You can talk with Him, and He
will talk to you. He is inside of you, yet He is with you. He can talk to you
inside you, and also talk to you from the outside! He’s the dearest friend you
could ever have, and He has the wisdom and ability to see you through the most
difficult of situations.

The Bible
says “…He (Jesus) is able also to save
them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make
intercession for them”
(Hebrews 7:25).He’ll go any length to help you. He already
proved it through His death for you on the cross. He’ll never give up on you or
condemn you! Let Him be your closest friend; don’t be ashamed to identify
yourself with Him for He loves you exceedingly. He’ll never be ashamed of you
and He will ALWAYS be there for you,
even to the end of the world (Matthew 28:20). Start each day by saying “I love You Lord Jesus!” develop that
relationship with Him through His Word and the Holy Spirit. Amen!

PRAYER

Dear Lord Jesus Christ! You’re the
dearest friend I could ever know. No one can love me, believe in me and care
for me the way you do! You’re my best friend and the object of my deepest
affection. I love You with all my heart and desire to know and love You more
and more each day. Thank You for being My Lord, My Master and My Friend! Amen!
