“Therefore I will look unto the Lord, I will wait for the God of my salvation.” Micah 7:7

It is not just that true disciples ought to strive to do all things to the Glory of God. But as true disciples we should also recognize that anything and everything that happens to us is by the Sovereign and Providential purpose of God for His own self Glorification. Including the promises and blessings, as well as sickness and death. God is the most beautiful and glorious and perfect Being. He is eternal and uncreated. He is perfectly good and perfectly holy. He is perfectly just and perfectly righteous. He is ultimately worthy and deserving of all the glory and praise and honor that we can give Him for all eternity. And because of who God is, a failure to Glorify God is a sin. And that is not because God is an egomaniac. It is because He is worthy of it. And everything that God does for His people, whether in blessing or suffering, whether in prosperity or poverty, whether in comfort or pain, health or illness, life or death, it is all ultimately for His glory.

If Jesus had not waited for Lazarus to die in order to go to Mary and Martha and cry with them, hug them, embrace them, grieve with them over the death of Lazarus, they would have missed out on a nearness and intimacy with Jesus that they could never have known otherwise. And at the end of that narrative John tells us that many believed in Him because of this. God was glorified, Jesus was glorified in this miracle and Mary, Martha, and Lazarus grew closer to Jesus than they ever would have otherwise. And as a result many believed in Jesus. God’s Glory is our good, you see. And the Glory that Christ experienced in the Cross, Resurrection, and Ascension is what accomplished our salvation. Again I say, God’s Glory is our good.

Proverbs 2:3-6

3 For if you cry for discernment, Lift your voice for understanding;
4 If you seek her as silver And search for her as for hidden treasures;
5 Then you will discern the fear of the LORD And discover the knowledge of God.
6 For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Discovery and Revelation go hand in hand. Godly wisdom for Godly living is not merely passively absorbed it’s actively pursued. If you seek God’s wisdom like one might seek great treasure you WILL discover it. And you will DISCOVER it because God has REVEALED it. The Word of God is God’s revelation of Himself to us and for us. Simply hearing it read and explained once a week is like eating only one meal a week. It won’t take long before you’ve starved yourself to death. Pursue the Wisdom of God through His Word and through prayer everyday like you eat food everyday. Seek it like you’d seek great treasure. And you’ll discover the Wisdom of God. And you will discover the wisdom of God ultimately revealed in the Word made Flesh, Jesus Christ the Son of God.

John 13:18-30.
For some Judas is an enigma. His role is hard to wrestle with for some people. And yet, it was a necessary element of God’s plan of Redemption. As sad as it is, God can take even the nastiest of betrayals and use them for the most good. If even Judas’ betrayal was used for God’s ultimate glory and our salvation, then there is nothing you will ever face in this life that God is not using for His Glory and your ultimate good…God is not desperately attempting to right a ship that has gone way off course. Indeed, He has never left the helm and the ship is going exactly as He intends it to go. And that must be a great comfort to us. And I am certain that after a short few days of grieving, the other 11 Apostles found great comfort in this reality even as it was their dear friend who betrayed their Lord. “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28)

It’s true that Jesus Christ is with us in our trials, but are we with him in his? “From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him” (John 6:66). Many of us stop going with Jesus the moment we have our first spiritual experience. We are so amazed by what our Lord has done for us that our experience of it becomes our focus, and though we continue to wear his badge, we take our sights off him. The trials of Jesus continued throughout his earthly life, and they will continue throughout the life of the Son of God in us. At certain times, it’s easy to stand by Jesus. But watch out when God shifts your circumstances. Are you standing by Jesus when the world turns against him, or are you siding with the world, the flesh, and the devil? Are you going with Jesus in the life you are living now?

When David fell into adultery and murder he began his prayer of repentance, Psalm 51, by falling upon the love of God. He said, “Be gracious to me, Oh God, according to your Lovingkindness.” Even in the deepest and darkest place of sin and rebellion, David doesn’t fall into despair. He falls on the love of God. He appeals to God on account of God’s love for him. It is his knowledge of God’s love for him that leads him to repentance. There is no depth of darkness you can find yourself in that can change the love God has for you if you are in Christ Jesus. However far away you feel from Christ it is not because He has left you. He has not forgotten you, nor has He grown cold or indifferent to you. The completeness and perfection with which He loved His disciples, is the same love with which He loves us here and now. He loves us to the uttermost. A love that culminated in the cross on which He died to atone for all of our sins. This love to the uttermost is a love unto salvation for those who believe.

He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.

Palm Sunday

Palm Sunday is the day we remember and celebrate the day Jesus entered Jerusalem as Savior and King. As Jesus rode a donkey into the town of Jerusalem, a large crowd gathered and laid palm branches and their cloaks across the road, giving Jesus royal treatment. The hundreds of people shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest heaven!"

On the heels of Palm Sunday, as we begin this Holy Week, may we constantly be reminded of its significance and value for our lives today. That very important day in history, when Jesus began His journey towards the cross.

Yet maybe amid busy lives, on the heels of Spring Break, or in all of the upcoming thoughts about Easter, the real meaning of it may, even unintentionally, get missed.
His Word reveals such great truths in every part of this story. Truths that draw us closer towards Christ, reminding us that He alone is King.
