I am glad about having another opportunity to share the word of wisdom from the Lord with you. The Bible says that wisdom makes the face of a man radiant.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h6>\u00abThey looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.\u00bb (Psalms 34:5)<\/h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nGod placed us into this world for only one reason &#8211; to fulfil His will. Today\u00b4s topic is \u201cJesus and God\u00b4s will\u201d. Jesus is our model in everything. He is the Author, the Master and the Maintainer of our faith. Therefore, Jesus set an example for us, so that we can follow his steps.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h6>\u00abFor to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps\u00bb (1 Peter 2:21).<\/h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nFrom the very beginning of His life on this Earth Jesus was clearly aware of His goal. He was extraordinary passionate to the business of His Father in His Spirit.\r\n\r\nThere is a story from Jesus childhood in the Bible, it tells us how He was growing and becoming strong in spirit, increasing in wisdom and stature. Jesus had a good reputation both in the eyes of God and in the eyes of people.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h6>\u00abThe child was growing, and was becoming strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him \u2026 and Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.\u00bb (Luke 2:40,52).<\/h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nJesus studied the law of God in order to know everything written in Torah and in prophets. The Gospel of Luke tells us how Jesus interpreted all the prophecies about His coming on Earth starting from the time of Moses and all through the prophets. Later on resurrected from death, Jesus showed Himself up to the two disciples on their way to Emmaus. Those two were reasoning about the recent events related to His death and resurrection. Suddenly, Jesus Himself revealed to them but they didn\u00b4t recognise Him.\r\n\r\n\u00abBehold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem. They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened. It happened, while they talked and questioned together, that Jesus himself came near, and went with them. But their eyes were kept from recognizing him. He said to them,\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h6>\u201cWhat are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?\u201d\u00bb (Luke 24:13-17).<\/h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nAfter the disciples had shared their sad stories and disappointment with Jesus, He began to explain in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h6>\u00abSome of us went to the tomb, and found it just like the women had said, but they didn\u2019t see him.\u201d He said to them, \u201cFoolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! Didn\u2019t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?\u201d Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.\u00bb (Luke 24:25- 27).<\/h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThose two disciples were mourning about Jesus crucifixion. Even more, they were astonished to hear that women who visited the place where Jesus was buried didn\u00b4t find His body, but met angels who announced that Jesus is alive. Jesus wanted to help the disciples to understand that all those things didn\u00b4t happen accidentally, but are the fulfilment of God\u00b4s will on Earth. For this reason Jesus started with Torah and went through all books of prophets, explaining what was written about Himself. Jesus knew God\u00b4s will, because He had studied the Scriptures!\r\n\r\nStudying the life of Jesus in the New Testament you may notice He exactly carried out the route set for His life by God. Jesus fulfilled every prophecy written about Him long before He was born. How could He know everything about that? Probably because He was the second person of God? Surely not! Jesus clearly understood His mission and His goal, because He had constant fellowship with Father and studied the law of God. It was His life style that made Him know the God\u00b4s will for His life.\r\n\r\nAnd there is the word of God for you today: follow Jesus in your daily studies of God\u00b4s word, so that you can get to know and fulfil the God\u00b4s will for your life.\r\n\r\nLet the good God bless you!\r\n\r\nSee you tomorrow!\r\n\r\nRufus Adjiboye, pastor","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"esus is our model in everything.
