The Walk of Jesus : Holy Week 2010• Final Instructions - Tuesday
John 17:26
Jesus speaking to the Father:
...and I have declared unto them Your name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith You have loved me may be in them ,and I in them....
Just moments before Jesus was going to be arrested - tried and found guilty of crimes (sins) He never commited - HE still had some teaching to do - some basic instructions before leaving Earth for His now 11 followers - that was to remember that while JESUS and the FATHER are one - we as HIS children should be one - these often bickering men often tried to see who was the greatest - were not being told that they must be one - it's all about putting our agenda aside for God's - this is a tough thing for us and it was tough for them - but Jesus asked of the Father for this to come to pass - in the midst of the looming cross - Jesus was more concerned for those left behind - it's all about Jesus putting His followers before Himself - He was willing to lay down HIS life for us - we don't deserve what JESUS did, in the story of Holy Week -we are heading toward the cross - it's in view now - soon they will come and capture Jesus by force -but before that we must go to the garden - the last place Jesus and the Disciples will be together as they have been - Jesus would soon suffer and die - and be burried - but right now - Jesus is still teaching - still showing those He loved what it means to be one - that's His goal - that we all be one - in unity - this does not mean that we must be like the world - it's not a compermise - it's all about God's kingdom coming before this world's kingdom - it's about Jesus willingly paying our sin debt off in HIS blood - today Jesus is walking toward the cross - His goal is coming to pass even today!
Let's follow Jesus to the garden - to the last supper - and to the cross itself - this journey takes us on a hard walk but it's good to look back and see Jesus as He did this for us!
Jesus asked the Father that we would be as close as Him and HIS Father - that's the kind of Love JESUS ask for - a love with no bounds - a love without limits - beloved - let's celebrate the fact that JESUS died for us - for our sins - and that He has covered all of them - there are none left - they have taken as far as the East is from the West - celebrate freedom today - remember JESUS and what HE said - get into HIS word - and let's follow....
JESUS LOVED US SO MUCH - HE PRAYED FOR US -
SOON HIS PRAYER WILL BE SO DEEP HE WILL SWEAT BLOOD -
LET THE FATHER'S LOVE SHOW YOU JESUS' LOVE
