Terrified and Panicked
Listen
Transcript:
Greetings in Jesus name.
May the Lord bless you, May this new week you entered into become an unusual blessing for you.
In Mathew 17:6, it says that the disciples when they saw Jesus transfigured, they were terrified and they fell face down on the ground. This was their response to a word that came from heaven. We know the context of this was that Peter, James and John had an invitation from Jesus to climb up the mountain with him. Peter, James & John were not used to climbing up the mountain with Jesus, they were used to travelling, preaching and healing.
For Jesus supernatural occurrences would be normal, it would be natural especially those times when he would climb up the mountain.
Are you a believer who thinks you are an ordinary person and you don t care about taking that extra effort, climbing up that extra mountain to be in the presence of God so that you can be committed to God?
The reason Jesus pleased His father was because He was a seeker, worshipper He knew how to fellowship and commune and depend on His father and that is what will characterize our life’s too.
Peter’s focus was not on the presence of God, but was on the supernatural aspect of the encounter.
Your intention should not be to experience something supernatural, but to stay in His presence.
May the presence of God become a normal occurrence in your everyday life.

Feel For Him
Acts 17:27 (GNT)
He did this so that they would look for him, and perhaps find him as they felt around for him. Yet God is actually not far from any one of us.
Lock the Door
Matthew 23:13 (GNT)
““How terrible for you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees! You hypocrites! You lock the door to the Kingdom of heaven in people’s faces, but you yourselves don’t go in, nor do you allow in those who are trying to enter!”
Psalm 147:2–3 reveals God's heart as a Restorer rather than a Punisher. Although Israel went into exile because of its own rebellion, God did not abandon His people. Instead, He promised to restore Jerusalem, bring the exiles home, heal the brokenhearted, and bind up their wounds.
The message reminds us that while God may use friends, pastors, counselors, or loved ones to help us, true healing and restoration ultimately come from the Lord. His restoration reaches every part of our lives—our hearts, relationships, health, finances, emotions, and spiritual walk.
God knows every wound, including those hidden from others. Unlike people, who can only comfort from the outside, He sees the deepest parts of our hearts and heals completely. His healing is so complete that even the scars of past pain lose their power to define us.
The devotion encourages believers to fix their eyes on God instead of relying solely on human help. No matter how far someone has drifted, how many mistakes they have made, or how broken they feel, God is still calling them back. His desire is to restore, heal, and make all things beautiful in His perfect timing.
