SAT WITH JESUS

DAILY GRACE SAT.25TH FEB, 2017 SAT WITH JESUS MARK 2:15 Happy weekend to you beloved. I pray for you that Jesus Christ will sit down with you and attend to your specific case today in Jesus' name. "Now it happened, as He was dining in Levi's house, that many tax collectors and sinners also sat together with Jesus and His disciples; for there were many, and they followed Him." Levi was a tax collector, he was highly favored by God of all grace and for the Son of man to visit him and transform his life entirely was a greatest miracles. Tax collectors were considered notorious sinners by the Jew due to their reputed cheating and support of pagan Rome. The good news is that Christ Jesus came to specifically visit Levi and his household. The visit of Christ Jesus brought eternal salvation from sin, self and flesh to Levi and his household, even including his fellow tax collectors. Since it is only the sick that have need to see the physician, so also Christ came for that same purpose- to seek and to save the lost (Mark 2:17). Jesus Christ sat and ate with the notorious sinners because He came for the purpose of their recovery from sinful lifestyle i.e to seek the lost ones. Let's examine what made Jesus to be able to sit comfortably with those notorious sinners (Levi and his fellow tax collectors); a.) Love in His heart for them. If you don't have the love of the sinnner in your heart, you can not witness the gospel of grace to them. b.) His humble nature (Phil. 2:5). Humility is vital in the sight of God for everyone faithful believers. c.) His interest centers around saving them. You must have a passionate interest of rescuing men from the trap of death. d.) He had interest in making their lives better than it was. Be a Christian with a loving care to help and make others better. e.) He wanted to forgive their sins. Forgiveness must not be eraze from the book of your life as a child of God. f.) He wanted to give them a new and beautiful beginning. g.) He wanted to enlist them as His disciples. h.) He wanted them to be His own followers. i.) He was interested at making them come out of their nothing to something great. j.) He wanted them to take upon them and also reflect the likeness of God into their make up, do much so they can fulfil their destiny. Beloved, Jesus is also interested in your matter, hence He wants to eat with you and this can only happen if you allow Him as the Lord of your life after He has saved you from your sins. He came solely for that purpose and to help you fulfil your destiny. My Prayer is that you will allow Him today and give Him a golden opportunity to work upon and dine with you. Enjoy your day! Personal Confession: Lord Jesus, please sit with me and transform my life and destiny for better in Jesus' name. Read, Reflect and rebroadcast to bless someone. God will bless you in return.
