Daily D – Luke 9:37

Luke 9:37 The next day, after they had come down the mountain, a large crowd met Jesus. (NLT)

—

The text doesn’t explicitly say so, but it sounds like Jesus, James, John, and Peter spent the night on the mountain where Jesus was transfigured before them. Pete and the other guys got tired on the climb up the mountain and fell asleep. I wonder if they slept that night? Or, did they keep Jesus up all night asking questions about Moses and Elijah?

I wonder if the shepherds who enjoyed the heavenly musical when Jesus was born ever looked at the stars the same way again?

I wonder.

There are moments in life so overflowing with meaning that we never get over them. The majesty of those moments never goes away.

Looking around at the drama going on in our world, it’s normal and natural to wonder if God is preparing something spectacular for those who long for his majesty to settle into our midst and make possible what only he can do.

Wonder with me.

Let us turn our wondering into praying. Let’s ask God to extend his healing grace, to free people from the cages they have built for themselves, to deliver people from darkness, however they arrived in that state.

May his wonderful light illuminate this present darkness.

I will pray for God’s majesty to be seen and experienced by all people everywhere.

Our Father, this old world sure needs you right now. Too many leaders live all too closely to the lunatic fringe. Too much unhealthy, unwholesome, hateful, and hurtful behavior is paraded before our eyes and fills our ears. Some of it is news. Some of it is what passes for entertainment. Please deliver us from this darkness. May we live in the light of your presence. Make us beacons of your blessed illumination. Use us to drive the wolves away. Amen.

Daily D – Judges 10:11-14

Judges 10:11-14 The LORD replied, “When the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines, the Sidonians, the Amalekites and the Maonites oppressed you and you cried to me for help, did I not save you from their hands? But you have forsaken me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you. Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you when you are in trouble!”

I rescued you from the hand of the Egyptians. And I delivered you from the hand of all your oppressors; I drove them out before you and gave you their land. I said to you, ‘I am the LORD your God; do not worship the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you live.’ But you have not listened to me.”
