THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

KEEP LOOKING AHEAD, KNOWING THAT GOD ALWAYS CAUSES YOU TO TRIUMPH

When Jesus spoke today’s Scripture, He was referring to His coming DEATH. At the TIME, people thought He was talking about the actual temple BUILDING, but He was TALKING about HIMSELF. He knew that His END had been established. He was saying that His final scene was NOT one of being betrayed and mistreated, hanging on a cross in great pain, OR being buried in a TOMB wrapped up in GRAVE clothes. HE knew that HIS final scene was that of being seated at the right hand of His FATHER, with all POWER, with the keys of death and HELL. That’s why the SCRIPTURE says, “For the joy that was set BEFORE Him He endured the cross, scorning its SHAME.”

Now in the TOUGH times, don’t let the twists, the turns, or the things that don’t make sense cause YOU to get discouraged. The way to keep your JOY is to keep looking AHEAD, KNOWING that you will have a FLOURISHING finish, knowing that God ALWAYS causes you to triumph. GOD has established YOUR end.

Today’s Scripture:

John 2:19, NIV

Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”
