Blind to the words of Jesus!

“If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.” Luke 19:42

Jesus entered into Jerusalem and saw the crowds. He wept.

The Israelites thought Jesus was going to become a king not a martyr for humanity.

Jesus saw the coming devastation to Jerusalem and the suffering of the people.

Jesus wept because of the future destruction and lack of faith of the people.

The Israelites were not willing to repent from sin and accept the teachings of Jesus.

The future could have been filled with the goodness of God, supernatural protection and the peace that surpasses all understanding.

The Israelites heard the words of Jesus but were blinded to understanding His wisdom and prophecies about the future. They did not take Jesus seriously.

We have all failed God’s warnings at times. The “might have been” did not happen because we were not listening or obedient to God’s voice. 

The future is going to be tumultuous for all humanity so we have to pray seeking the will of God and listen for His voice. When God speaks do not reject Him like the Israelites.

Follow the instructions of Jesus with complicity and without hesitation.

Jesus is omniscient and desires to protect a believer but we must submit to Him. The Holy Spirit is your safety net so invite Him to have authority over your life. He speaks for Jesus!
