TEXT MATTHEW 16:13
TOPIC : IDENTITY AND PREDESTINATION
[13]When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
Dearly beloved, when Jesus came to the coast of caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples who people say He was?
Who do people know you to be?
Billy Graham once told a story about Albert Einstein.
He said that Einstein was in a train travelling to a certain destination. Then the conductor began to move from seat to seat checking for tickets.
Einstein searched but could not find his ticket. When the conductor came to him, he said to Einstein, Einstein searched his pockets but could not find it.
The conductor then said to Albert Einstein, I know you. Don't bother looking for it, you cannot cheat us.
I know who you are, just that you cannot find your ticket.
The question today is, who do people know you to be?
What can they say about you?
Today I find many people including believers saying things like, I don't care what people say about me.
If our Lord Jesus cared, then I think that we should also care.
Always remember that the sinners do not study the bible, your life is the bible they study.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
