Bible Verse of The Day – 6-17-22

Matthew 16:17 (NKJV) 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.

For all of Peter’s faults and failures, there were times when he hit the nail on the head, so to speak. And this is certainly one of those times when he nailed it.

Every once in a while, Peter would say something that was truly profound and surely 100% inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Peter reached a point (probably without even realizing it himself) where he recognized Jesus for who He truly was; The Christ, the Son of the living God.

When Peter spoke these words, Jesus encouraged him by telling him that this was not revealed to him by flesh and blood (by man), but “My Father who is in heaven”.

Let us walk as Peter walked, rising above the struggles of the flesh and speaking the words that the Holy Spirit has dropped into our spirit.

Brothers and sisters in Christ, with man this is impossible. But with God, all things are possible!

Matthew 19:26 (NKJV) 26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

As humans, we do not have the capacity in the natural to see and understand spiritual things. But with God, all things are possible.

And we need to understand that the time for us to learn to see, hear and speak by the Spirit of God is here and now!

Let us not delay any further the effort required to understand the importance and the urgency of this.

It is imperative that we push our human flesh and human thoughts aside and let God speak His words into our spirits, that we might get the wisdom and understanding we need for the season in which we are living.

Peter was but a mere man, just as you and I. But he allowed God to transform Him into a mighty solder for Christ. Let us do the same.
