HIGHWAY TABERNACLE ~ RESURRECTION LIFE

“Following Jesus and Loving People”

 

After Jesus rose from the dead, the Bible records about 12 resurrection appearances he made to his disciples and others. In Luke 24, for example, we read of Jesus appearing to two unnamed disciples as they were walking along a road to Emmaus. I love this story because it reminds me why Jesus rose and how he wants to help us every day. The Bible says, “Jesus himself came up and walked along with them” Luke 24:15b. After a long conversation with these two people, Jesus disappeared from their sight. Then they asked each other, “Were not out hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?” From these passages, I receive encouragement from the Lord and insights into the ministry of the risen Savior to me (and all believers). First, he wants to walk with us. While on earth, he willingly limited himself to being at one place at one time. Now that he is at the right hand of the Father, he can be everywhere by His Spirit. That means he can walk with me and fellowship with me at the same time he is with you! His fellowship is more that talking about the weather or shifting political ideas. He is willing to open the Scriptures to us and put a fire in our heart to live for him. This means that when I open the Word of God, I am not alone. Jesus is with me to speak his words into my heart and give me encouragement and zeal. I am so blessed to by Jesus Himself. When I consider all the good things this world has to offer, nothing compares to daily fellowship with the risen Lord Jesus! Enjoy him today. Walk with him and listen for his voice. He is alive forevermore!
