Jesus Christ of Nazareth is our greatest example to pattern our lives after!!! Be blessed as you read!!!
Jesus Christ though from Holy Royalty, was born in lowly estate among the animals. The oxen feeding trough was his crib, and hay was his mattress that he lay on. The radiance of the Lord was upon him and there was a light that shone so bright, it changed the whole atmosphere even among the animals.
Jesus of Nazareth not only grew in stature but also in wisdom and in the knowledge of the Lord, waking before the dawning of day to pray. It is so very interesting to know that, Jesus got up very early in the morning and went up to the mountain to pray alone with His Heavenly Father. There he prayed until the dawning of day. Prayer kept Jesus in close relationship with His Father. In prayer Jesus received instructions for His day.
There is such a contrast today! Today Jesus is very much alive, even though he is not walking the dusty streets anymore, he wants to live in your heart today and reign in you, that your Heavenly Father would be glorified.
In retrospect think about this! You do not have to go out of your house to pray to your Heavenly Father, and when you do go to prayer meeting. You hardly ever have to walk, for many times the Church is not in walking distance, and you are blessed to have a vehicle to drive in order to get there. Jesus Christ of Nazareth did not have a car, nor a horse to ride on, he couldn't even catch a bus ride, nor a Taxi, for there was none of these in those days. Yet Jesus Christ of Nazareth walked everywhere, that His Heavenly Father sent him. Thousands and thousands of people were drawn to him, because of the miracles and teaching of the Kingdom of Heaven. What is so intriguing though is that in spite of his fame, he remained focused and faithful in his walk with his Father. Jesus did not get complacent, nor did he become proud and lifted up. Instead he humbled himself even in his death on the cross, and in the grave he triumphed over hell, death, and the grave. Yes Jesus Christ of Nazareth through the finished work of his crucifixion, the resurrection, and his ascension, which ushered in the work of Pentecost. Now through the work of the Holy Spirit, true Revival is breaking forth in this Nation and around the world. Yes miracles are now unfolding, the word of God is alive and in living color for the world to see. Salvation is free, for Jesus Christ of Nazareth paid the price for your sins and mine. The word of God assures you from Romans 8:1 which reads, " There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. " Jesus Christ sealed your not guilty verdict, you are free from the bondages of sin, free to take your place with him. Yes seated in Heavenly places, and if you will remain faithful to your Heavenly Father one day you will reign with Him. For the word says in Romans 8:37 "Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loves us. "
I challenge you today to walk to your place of destiny, with the knowledge of the engrafted word, fully armored in Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Always let the high praises of God your Father come from the fruit of your lips. For your victory is in your praise. Your victory is in studying the word, and in searching the scriptures. A consistent prayer life is the life beating pulse , that will clearly light your path. Yes prayer will propell you to your place of destiny. During times of weariness and fatigue, the refreshing presence of God will revive you, and catapult you back on track, through Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Always remember that he is the Door to your place of destiny! Yield your heart to Jesus Christ of Nazareth today, and watch with your very eyes, your life transforming through the power of God, your Father who loves you with an ever lasting love!
