Wig’s Word of God Today 5-19-2011
From this man’s descendants God, according to His promise, has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus. Acts 13:23
Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives the One Who sent Me. John 13:20
Acts 13:13-25, Psalm 89 & John 13:16-20
In Acts 13 we have Saul turned Paul testifying to the Truth in Antioch in Pisidia and he was asked by the synagogue officials; “My brothers, if one of you has a word of exhortation for the people, please speak.” Paul stood and proclaimed the history of David’s descendants that was testified to in the Old Testament by the Prophets. His message is clear: “From this man’s descendants God, according to His promise,
has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus.” Acts 13:23
John 13 brings about the Washing of the Disciples Feet and the naming of Judas as the traitor of Christ. Jesus describes the need for betrayer to accomplish his betrayal so “the Scripture might be fulfilled.” Never do we hear He is mad at this occurrence nor do we hear Him stating anything ugly at living the Will of God for the Salvation of Humanity. There is a lot to learn from this passage because we fail to see in our own lives the need to wash the feet or extend a hand of charity to those less fortunate than us or to maintain an constant level of thanksgiving even when people do ugly things to us.
Many in the world feel it is beyond them to do something that has been labeled as a servant’s job. This is exactly the reason why Jesus washed His Disciples feet; “I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do. Amen, amen, I say to you, no slave is greater than his master nor any messenger greater than the one who sent him. If you understand this, blessed are you if you do it.” John 13:15-17 Even the one who betrays you should be given the same love and prayers as the one who loves you. Love your love of Christ and fulfill His acts of faith, charity and love. Amen.
So we ask in prayer: My LORD and My God, we pray today for continued improvement of Augie Silva and we thank You LORD for his continued improvement. LORD we pray today for the people who have lost touch with You especially my friend’s daughter, Vanessa. May all who have allowed the secular world of flash, flair and selfishness be reunited with Your Son’s Truth and forgive to live in peace for Your Glory. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,
