HYMN FOR TODAY: "Jesus, Name Above All Name"
Excitement abound in the town of Friendville, for the annual circus was about to arrive. "I can't wait until Friday night," Randy exclaimed to his friend, Mark.
"I know. The circus gets better every year. But I think The Herald reported Saturday as the day," Mark responded. "Well, I heard Friday at 7 P.M." countered Randy. "Wait, Randy, here's Josh, what's the scoop on the day and time of next week's circus?"
"Well, Mr. Martin, the owner, came to our house for dinner last night and he said it's Saturday at 1 P.M. Josh answered. "Thanks, Josh, now we know thedate and time for certain," the guys remarked. Rumors persisted in Caesarea Philippi, as to who Jesus was. But Peter, who'd been handpicked to be one of Jesus' disciples, knew the truth. He'd accompanied the Master and witnessed His miracles. No mortal man could perform such fears. Moreover, because of the assurance God has placed in his heart, Peter knew certainly that Jesus was the Messiah.
Who is Jesus to you today? The Scripture bear out with certainly that He is the Messiah.
PRAYER THOUGHTS: Dear Lord, thank You that You have made it possible for Jesus to live in our hearts. Because His home us within us we know for certain Who He is. He is Your only begotten Son, the Savior and Light of the World--- the Messiah! Amen.
