He’s Still Good

Mark 10:32-34 (NKJV)
“Now they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them; and they were amazed. And as they followed they were afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that would happen to Him: “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him to the Gentiles; and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again.”
Devoción
Mark is the shortest Gospel in the Bible, yet it emphasizes the miracles of Jesus the most. Jesus is a miracle-working God. Throughout Mark, Jesus would perform a miracle, and after performing the miracle, He would tell whoever He had blessed to be quiet and not say anything about the miracle. It is not until He is about to be taken to the cross that He speaks of His crucifixion.
When you experience the miracle of salvation and hear the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection, your life changes. You win if you are on Jesus’ side. You were saved by divine grace. But don’t solely rely on the miracles that Jesus can do. Instead, focus on His character and know that even if He cannot perform another miracle in your life, Jesus still deserves honor and glory. He is the same God yesterday, today, and forever.
Scripture calls us to go out into the world and spread the Good News of salvation in its entirety. When we do so, we can have a great impact and build believers who are fully persuaded that if they commit their lives to the Lord, He will always be there, no matter how times change.

Querido Padre Celestial,
Thank You for sending Your own Son, the King’s Son, the perfect Lamb of God, who came to take away the sins of the world. Thank You, Jesus, for dying on the Cross in my place. Help me to share this message of salvation with those You bring into my life. Anoint my words that they may be life to those who hear, and give the hearers understanding, that they may call upon Your name and be saved. In the Name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
