The Devotional – Search the Scriptures - 95

SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:  John 20:30-31 – The Eternal Plan of God – Jesus
And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES: Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah
I am sure we cannot capture the moment when Jesus entered Nain and raised the widow’s son from the dead. Most every family I know has a member who has past away, either by illness, old age or accident. And like Martha in John 11:21 spoke “LORD, if you would have been here, my (brother, sister, son, daughter, mom or dad would not have died).

We can believe that this trip of Jesus was more than coincidence. I believe the widow whose home was not far from Capernaum was crying out to God in grief as we all do in times like the death of a loved one. God hears all of our prayers. Prayers of the thoughts and anxieties of those who mourn and those who rejoice too!

Notice; when Jesus saw the woman, He said to her “do not weep”, Jesus did not ask her if she had faith in Him, He knew from her prayers before where her faith was abiding. Has your faith found a haven of rest? Jesus provides rest for every soul. Can you imagine this? Your soul, if it is at unrest, is seeking only ONE one solution -  God. God is the Sustainer, Creator, and Maintainer of all SOULS, He presently is monitoring YOU and ME.

‘God has visited His people’ Luke 7:16 if you are born-again, He has visited you and you are His, ‘you are not your own’ your soul is now a temple where God the Holy Spirit dwells, God will not leave us alone, He will never forsake us and He will be with us, even to the end.

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 203 Luke 21:7   –   So they asked Him, saying, “Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?” Matthew 24:3 – Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” Mark 13:4 – “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign when all these things will be fulfilled?” Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah Yesterday we looked briefly at the First coming of the LORD Jesus, born of the virgin Mary, suffered and crucified, killed by the power of sin of which we all had and have a part in. He rose from this death; He is alive again . The apostle Paul writes, “For I deliver to you first of all that which I also received that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 169 Luke 14:7-14 - So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the best places, saying to them: “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him; “and he who invited you and him come and say to you, ‘Give place to this man,’ and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place. “But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.’ Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. “For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Then He also said to him who invited Him, “When you give a dinner or a supper, do not ask your friends, your brothers, your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid. “But when you give a fea

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 161.1 SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:   Luke 12:1-5 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. “Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah An excerpt from yesterday’s devotional: In our passage, the point of the LORD is not that of being a newscaster but placing the death of these people beyond human judgment, in fact; Jesus does not look at the death of human beings as we do. All humans, past present and future will die a ph
