Do You Get it!

Have you ever felt the Lord telling you, “You just don’t get it!”

In Matt. 12: 7 Jesus says to the Pharisees, “But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ You would not have condemned the guiltless. For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”

Sometimes we can think that God takes a day off. It always seems this day is the one we need Him most. The day of the Sabbath is a day of rest. Rest in the Lord.

Jesus has tried over and over to explain Himself and people just would not get it. He even tries to use stories they would know, like the one about David or the one about the priests and the temple. The Pharisees new these stories and how the Lord showed favor. They still refused to accept the truth that was right before their very eyes.

Is your spiritual receiver picking up what Jesus is trying to say to you? May be you are not tuning in to the right channel! Jesus speaks clearly and directly. His message is for you. Listen and apply to your life what the Lord is saying to you today.
