     | 4,290 views

    What was finished? What was this mission that was now finished? Why did Jesus come? Let's look at how Jesus defined his mission -- and later, how his apostles understood it.

    It is Finished! John 19:30 John 19:28-30 reads, "After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, 'I am thirsty.'

    Prayer is the most powerful tool believers possess, but it is often little used. We have access to the throne of grace, enjoying the ability and privilege to make our requests known unto Christ our King. We must take advantage of this blessed privilege.

    Researchers have concluded that the major cause of diseases that harm mankind are not so much from bacteria or virus, but rather because of the state of one’s mind. The adverse stress and disturbances to the mind leads to break-down in our health.

    Psalm 91 - Study 27 - Your emotions especially anger! We read in Psalm 91:9-10, “You, O LORD, are my refuge! You have made the Most High your home. No harm will come to you. No sickness will come near your house.” (GW) As we continue to meditate on Psalm 91, we have realized that the word of God ...read more

    Jesus was 2 feet away from them, but they didn't know it, but there was a burning sensation, not in their stomachs, but in their souls - the shekinah, the manifest presence of God. Suddenly they were aware of Him - His voice, His mannerisms, His nail-scarred hands. He was alive!

    Jesus calms the storm on the Lake. This is no ordinary thing, it is extraordinary. How will the disciples react and why did they react the way they did during the storm? From now on how will we react?

    Jesus is extraordinary, how do we respond? Luke 8:22-25 He is Lord over all of nature and creation. The Message paraphrase of the Bible tells it this way. 22-24 One day he and his disciples got in a boat. “Let’s cross the lake,” he said. And off they went. It was smooth ...read more

    As Jesus surveyed the multitude, He saw them as sheep without a shepherd. He saw their need and spoke many things to them. I am glad He is aware of our need and has compassion toward us.
