“Which none of the princes of this
world knew: for had they known it they would not have crucified the Lord of
glory” 1Corinthians2:8
LIGHT FOR THE
NOW: The end
you know is the peace you have.
When you know the future, you will
not panic at the present. What made Jesus Christ so unique was the knowledge He
had before He came to the earth. For instance, Jesus knew that He will not die
on the water, but on the cross. This foreknowledge made Him to sleep on a pillow
even in the midst of the storm (Mark 4:38-41). On the contrary, His disciples
panicked in fear, for the raging storm almost sank the boat – hence they cried
out ‘Carest thou not that we perish?
They deemed Jesus to be insensitive to their plight. But this was not the case.
Jesus knew who He was. He knew when, how, where and why He will die. So He was
not perturbed about the storm because He knew the events that would lead to His
death. The foreknowledge you have about yourself gives you an edge over any dire
circumstances surrounding you. The end you know is the peace you have.
By foreknowledge, Jesus refused to
struggle the kingdom of the world with Satan when He was tempted by the
devil. At His trial leading to the
cross, He told Pilate in clear terms that His kingdom is not of this world. By
foreknowledge, God did not refrain from sacrificing His only begotten Son. He
knew that upon resurrecting Jesus Christ, He would reap many sons to Himself.
Today, the sons of God are located round the globe. And these sons have
accomplished far greater works in comparison to what Jesus did while on earth!
Foreknowledge prevents you from engaging in unnecessary battles and debates.
Your ability to identify who you are in Christ stops you from all time-wasting
and unprofitable engagements!
INSTRUCTION: You need to know that a born again
child of God does not need deliverance.
PRAYER: Father, may I not go through life without the
revealed knowledge of you, in Jesus name.
QUOTE: The greatest need of the church is not prayers but
knowledge.
