Jesus Was Elated

Scripture: 21 Then Jesus Himself became elated. The Holy Spirit was on Him, and He began to pray with joy. Jesus: “Thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth. Thank You for hiding Your mysteries from the wise and intellectual, instead revealing them to little children. Your ways are truly gracious. 22 My Father has given Me everything. No one knows the full identity of the Son except the Father, and nobody knows the full identity of the Father except the Son, and the Son fully reveals the Father to whomever He wishes. 23 (then almost in a whisper to the disciples) How blessed are your eyes to see what you see! 24 Many prophets and kings dreamed of seeing what you see, but they never got a glimpse. They dreamed of hearing what you hear, but they never heard it.” (Luke 10:21-24 The Voice) Jesus must have been so very excited to hear from the seventy disciples that He had sent; to hear their stories of all that had happened! And beyond that, He whispered to them that they were indeed blessed because of all they had seen and heard. Do you and I think that Jesus is still elated when He sees His disciples of today doing great things in His name? I do believe that He is, so let’s continue to do the things that He asks us to do and rejoice with Him. Father, continue to let us hear from You as Your disciples and do the works You ask us to do. Your ways are always right and You are always good. Thank You. AMEN As I come to You in prayer, Lord, You will show me where to walk. Teach me to do Your will for You are my God. Psalm 143
