“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.” (Matthew 9:35 KJV)
As you can ascertain from the opening verse, when Jesus shows up, good things happened! When Jesus shows up, being God’s only begotten Son, the best showed up. When Jesus showed up in the cities, the villages, the synagogues, and spaces where sick people were stricken, physically or spiritually, those people were made better. Good things happen when Jesus shows up! Can you say “Amen” aloud so that someone will come and ask you, “What was that all about?” And then you tell them what happens when Jesus shows up. It can be your intro into some personal evangelism.
Friend, I need you to do one more thing, okay? Since, in regard to your presence among people, since it is no longer you, but the Christ who lives in you, let people see through your actions, your interactions, your reactions, and your verbal communications, Jesus. Why? Because you know the truth about, “When Jesus Shows Up.” Have a wonderful day! Be blessed!
“I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.” (Galatians 2:20 NASB)
Committed to the climb,
