Who is this King of Glory: Week 6: The Transfiguration

Scripture Highlight: After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus. Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus.Matthew 17:1-8Reflection Question: Has there been a moment recently where God revealed the glory of Jesus to you in a new way? Prayer: Jesus, Your glory changes everything. It protects me and sustains me in all circumstances and seasons; it is a reminder that You are always with me. As I go throughout my day, I will actively seek Your glory and allow it to transform me to be more like You. In Jesus' name, amen.

Who Is This King of Glory: Week 5: Jesus Awakens Lazarus

Scripture Highlight: Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance. “Take away the stone,” he said. “But, Lord,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man, “by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days.” Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me.” When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, “Take off the grave clothes and let him go.” Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in him.John 11:38-45Reflection Questions: Where is God calling you to trust Him with your plans? Who is God calling you to walk alongside as you trust Him? Prayer: God, I trust Your timing and plans for my life. There have been times when I believed my plans for my life were better than Yours. Forgive me. Proverbs 19:21 says, “Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.” God, I submit my plans and expectations to You, knowing that You see the bigger picture. When Your purpose is fulfilled in my life, Your glory is revealed. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Who is this King of Glory: Week 4: Jesus Feeds the 5000

Join us for a six-week study called "Who is This King of Glory?" as we encounter the glory of Jesus in our everyday lives.Scripture Highlight:  When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick. As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.” Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.” “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered. “Bring them here to me,” he said. And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.Matthew 14:13-21Reflection Questions: Is there something in your life you’re clinging to, an “only,” that God is asking you to give to Him? Is there hesitation in releasing it to Him? If so, why?PrayerLord, I thank you for being faithful to reveal Your glory. I pray that You would help me pursue You when I feel myself clinging to those “only” things in my life. God, I bring all that I have to You. I trust You and have faith in You. I relinquish control, knowing that in Your hands, my “only” is multiplied abundantly more than I can imagine. I will remind myself of the “only” You sacrificed when You gave me Jesus (John 3:16). Your word says that if I seek You, I will lack no good thing (Psalm 34:10) and that You will meet all my needs according to the riches of Your glory (Philippians 4:19). I claim these promises in Your word over my life. In Jesus' name, amen.

And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Be gone, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.’”Matthew 4:8-10Reflection Questions:What does your spiritual diet look like? Are you allowing your appetite to be developed by the Word of God, or is it shaped mainly by what the wilderness of the world has to offer? God is giving you the opportunity to discover what you need rather than being consumed by what you crave.Prayer:God, I recognize that You are all I need. I pray that my spirit would remain in a posture of continually seeking You and Your kingdom. Reveal those things in my life that are counterfeit and attempt to draw my gaze from You. Lord, only You are worthy of all glory. Let my life reflect Your glory. In Jesus’ name, amen.
