Daily Reflection: The transfiguration experience in Mark 9 was a moment in which a few of the disciples saw Jesus in a heavenly form amongst glorified people of Biblical history. Interestingly, this experience is later referenced by Peter in his writings. He writes, “for we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For when he received honor and glory from God the Father, and the voice was borne to him by the Majestic Glory, ‘This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased,’ we ourselves heard this very voice borne from heaven, for we were with him on the holy mountain” (see 1 Peter 1:16-18). In other words, the transfiguration experience led the disciples to see Jesus’ true nature – a majestic King who has been given glory by the Father to be the King of his family.
Daily Demonstration: If we are not careful, the presence of Jesus can become common. In this way, we forget his true nature of a loving, glorified King. We must regularly bring this truth to remembrance. Pray that God would give you a “transfiguration” experience and be renewed with a vision of Christ’s true nature – your King.

The word “family” can mean many different things to different people. Often, when people speak of family, they mean their blood relatives, specifically those with whom they live. When Christians speak of family, we also refer to God’s family, his ekklesia, or “church.” When we enter God’s kingdom, we become family with one another, forging a bond that transcends blood everything. We are all brought together into God’s family.
