Jesus told a parable which warned His disciples, and those within hearing distance, of judging those who did not use their abilities for the glory of God. Luke 19:12-26
Jesus also warned His enemies of His judgment against them. Luke 19:27
“After He said these things… He was going on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.” Luke 19:28
What we can know what the twelve disciples did not know – “He (Jesus) was going on ahead, going up to Jerusalem” to die. When Jesus died on a cross, He died for the sins of the disciples and for your sins and mine.
Jesus “… going on ahead… ”
Jesus leads, He is the Good Shepherd Who goes ahead of His sheep.
Today He continues to be “… going on ahead…”
You and I are to follow Him and when we do, we are comforted and secure. Why can that be said? Because He has “got this”!
We are to be Assured! Comforted! Strengthened! Confident!
We are to go into the future of this day – because Jesus is “… going on ahead…”!
John 10:27-28 NASB “My sheep (that’s all followers of Christ) hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;
28 and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.”
~ Take it to heart ~
When hard things come and difficulties multiply – all followers of Christ can know that our Jesus, our Shepherd, our Savior He is “… going on ahead…”!
