John 21:20-22, in these verses, Peter learns a valuable lesson, not to be overcome with wanting to know what others are doing.

John 19:38-42, these verses introduce us to Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus. Both, I believe, were disciples of Jesus, even though they may not have been public about it. These men prepared Jesus for His burial, while His disciples forsook Jesus and fled. How do you respond when things you don’t expect to happen-happen?

John 17:20-26. In these verses, Jesus is praying for the church, He is praying for us today. In this prayer, He is asking for 5 specific things. Are these things found in church today?

Luke 24:13-35

Luke 18:35-43, We see in these verses that healing comes by this. Blind Bartimeus got his healing because he wouldn’t let the tide of public opinion change his calling out to Jesus. Because of this, he got his healing. What is this? Listen to todays episode.

Luke 13:1-9 Jesus is teaching the importance of repentance in our lives. Unless we repent of our sins, we will perish. Plain and simple.

Luke 7:18-24, in todays Bible reading, we see where John the Baptist, while in prison, sent two of his disciples to Jesus to find out if Jesus is indeed the Messiah, or if they should watch for another. Think of the magnitude of that question. We see in the Gospels the strong faith of John the Baptist as he preached repentance, as he boldly proclaimed Jesus as the Messiah. And now, while in prison, he may have faltered in that faith a little bit. Don’t let your faith slip because you are going through a time of trial.

Luke 4:13, we learn in this verse that after the time of tempting Jesus was over, the devil left him alone for a season. Trials and temptations only last a season, and we must be ready to go through them so we develop a strong, steadfast faith in God. We also learn some valuable principles to help make it though our seasons of temptation.
