Do You believe In Miracles
Do You Believe In Miracles?FOR READING & MEDITATIION - MARK 6:45-56'Then he climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. They werecompletely amazed...' (v.51)For one more day we reflect on the moments when Jesus appeared to Hisdisciples walking on the water. The verse chosen as our text tells us thatthe disciples were amazed at what they had witnessed; they just could notunderstand what was going on. Eugene Peterson paraphrases part of today'sreading in this way: 'They didn't understand what he had done at thesupper. None of this had yet penetrated their hearts.'It says a great deal for the integrity of the Gospel writers that they soendearingly and honestly record the flaws and failures of the disciples.The fact that they did not understand what Christ had done at the feedingof the five thousand suggests they had not yet been won over completely tothe Saviour's mission, hence their further confusion at the Master'swalking on the water and His calming of the waves. We read 'their heartswere hardened' (v.52), and at that moment they were no different from someof the Lord's outright opponents (see Mark 3:5). Scepticism and rationalismstill seemed to play a strong part in the disciples' thinking even thoughthey had witnessed some most amazing events.There are many in today's Church who struggle over the issue of miracles.Let it be said right away that you cannot be a disciple of Jesus if you donot believe in miracles. C.S. Lewis commented, 'The mind which asks for anon-miraculous Christianity is a mind in process of relapsing fromChristianity into mere "religion".' Why are we reluctant to believe inmiracles? Conversion itself is a miracle. And when we become Christians weexperience one miracle after another. The power of Jesus exceeded therational abilities of His disciples. It always does.Lord Jesus Christ, forgive us if our hearts are so hardened by rationalismand scepticism that we cannot see that which is beyond the scope of ournatural minds. Help us dear Saviour. Amen.FURTHER STUDYLuke 24:36-47;1 Cor. 1:18-25;Heb. 3:12-14Hughes, Selwyn & Greenslade, Philip (Mar/Apr 2004) 'Every Day with Jesus',CWR Publishing, UK

On Retreat with Jesus
On Retreat With JesusFOR READING & MEDITATIION -MARK 8:27-30'"But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"' (v.29)Now we start to think about another situation in which we find our Lordteaching His disciples the meaning of discipleship. In the passage beforeus today Jesus is seen with His disciples near the cool and pleasant townof Caesarea Philippi which was on the northern boundary of Israel. Ineffect, He took them on 'retreat'. Drawing the disciples aside from thehustle and bustle of the crowds attracted by His ministry, Jesus asks themwhat people were saying about Him. They report the popular rumours sweepingthrough Galilee that a remarkable prophet had arisen or even beenreincarnated.It was not surprising that people had reached these conclusions. In someways Jesus behaved like prophets of Israel's history. What is more, Hismessage, like theirs, was a double-edged sword of both judgment and grace.And there can be no doubt that He Himself had a keen sense of following inthe prophetic tradition which He revealed when He first began to anticipatethe fate that awaited Him in Jerusalem (see Luke 13:33). There were manypeople then, as now, who were prepared to recognise Jesus as a prophet butwho were unable to see that He was more than a prophet.It's interesting that this matter was raised by Jesus in the vicinity ofCaesarea Philippi for history records that the town had been recently namedin honour of the Roman emperor and the local ruler, Philip, brother ofHerod Antipas. Its original name was Paneas because it hosted a shrine tothe Greek god Pan. Does Jesus fit into a pantheon of gods? The disciplesneeded to learn, as does the whole world, that Jesus doesn't belong in aclass alongside others. He belongs in a class all by Himself.Lord Jesus Christ, when will the world wake up to the fact that You aremore than a prophet? You are the eternal Son of God - true God of true God.I am so grateful that my eyes have been opened to that great and glorioustruth. Amen.FURTHER STUDYActs 2:22-24; 2:32-41; 10:36-43Hughes, Selwyn & Greenslade, Philip (Mar/Apr 2004) 'Every Day with Jesus',CWR Publishing, UK

Obedient
ObedienceBy Os HillmanAs soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move out to battle. ~ 1 Chronicles 14:15aThe Philistines were attacking. David wanted to know how to respond. His first inquiry of God revealed that he was to attack the Philistines straightaway and God would give him victory. David followed God's instruction and gained victory. Shortly after, the Philistines mounted another attack. "So David inquired of God again, and God answered him, 'Do not go straight up, but circle around them and attack them in front of the balsam trees' " (1 Chron. 14:14). David was a well-trained warrior, a strategist. Yet, we find that David's dependence on God to direct his efforts was very great. In fact, after he won the first battle, he went right back to inquire again. This is the most important lesson we can learn from this story. God told David to attack, but only after he heard the marching in the balsam trees. How many times have you or I operated in the workplace based only on our skill and ability, without seeking to know the details of God's will in the matter? David could have simply assumed that since he had won the last battle, surely God would give him victory the same way. No. David had learned that communicating with the living God is the only sure way of victory. His skill was not enough. He had to have God's blessing. How many times have we worked in our work life the same way each time only because it was the way we did it last time? What if God has a better way? What if God has a different plan than ours? "So David inquired of God..." These are the important words that we are to learn from. We must be in such relationship with God that we are constantly inquiring of His mind on every matter. When we do this, we can expect the same results that David achieved-success in our endeavor and recognition by God."So David's fame spread throughout every land, and the Lord made all the nations fear him" (1 Chron. 14:17). This is the reward of obedience to God. We don't have to build a name for ourselves. God will see to it that we are honored for our obedience. He wants to make known those servants who are willing to obey Him at all costs.
