Scripture

2 Peter 1

16 We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17 For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased." 18 We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.

Observation

Can you imagine what it must have been like to be an eyewitness of the ministry of Jesus Christ and to be able to walk, eat, and sleep in the presence of the King of King and the Lord of Lords? To actually be in his presence on the mount of transfiguration when Elijah and Moses visited with Jesus and to have heard the Father’s voice, saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” Even though today I don’t get to physically walk with Jesus and I don’t get to experience exactly what the disciples got to experience what I am getting to experience is pretty incredible. I sense His presence in my life stronger everyday. I am an eyewitness to what God is doing in my life and in the lives of those around me. He changed my life and I will never be the same!

Application

I want to live my life in such a way that my Heavenly Father can say about me, “This is my son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for letting me experience your power and your love. You are an Awesome God. I pray today as we celebrate the Lord’s Supper at church that you would be pleased with us. I pray that you visit us with us with your Mighty Power. I pray that people’s hearts would be turned toward you and that people would be saved. Be honored and be glorified in my life today and in the lives of those that come to worship today. In Jesus Name Amen.
