His Final Footstepsનમૂનો

My Shalom I Give You

In John 14, it seemed an odd moment for Jesus to speak of “peace. "It was probably the last thing the disciples felt at this point, as their Teacher and Leader told them He would no longer be with them. But Yeshua assured them that they would indeed have peace—not the ephemeral worldly form of peace that we experience when everything is going our way, but a peace in the midst of the hardest of trials. A peace that passes understanding (see Philippians 4:7).

In Exodus 12, as the Lord directed Moses and Aaron as to how the Israelites were to celebrate the Passover, He said that first they were to apply the blood of the lamb to their doorposts, and then they should enter the door of their home to eat the Seder meal in peace. They had to apply the blood first so that death would pass over them, and then they could eat in peace and safety.

In the same way, the blood of Yeshua allows us to enter into His peace, because after the blood has been applied, then we are covenantally sealed under God’s favor, protection, and saving power. Most importantly, we have His presence. As the psalmist David wrote: “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me” (Psalm 23:4 TLV).

Food For Thought and Prayer

Revelation 12:11 (TLV) declares, “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony . . .” When I feel troubled or afraid, it is important to recall that the blood of the Lamb is painted upon the doorposts of my life.
