Week 2: Jesus

"What a beautiful name it Is" Hillsong Worship

Week 2: Who is Jesus?


Do you know Jesus?

Has the sand warmed your feet as you walked beside him on the shores of the dead sea? Have you watched the fire in his eyes as He cleared the temple? Felt his authority as he silenced the wind and the waves? Have you seen the Saviour, Creator, Emmanuel holding, blessing, playing with the neighbourhood children?

Do you know Jesus?

Do you know his voice? Does he compete for your time, for space in your heart? Do you know where you stop and he begins? Is he recognisable in you and through you? To others, to yourself...
29 Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed;
blessed are those who have not seen
and yet 
have believed.” John 20:29
As you prepare for this weeks lesson, pray for your own awareness of Jesus. Our God is alive, active, and wants us to rest in his life through us. May we be consumed with the mind of Christ. May our words and deeds reflect those of a people with their minds set on things above, who have confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not yet see. May we stand unashamed with arms raised, hands open to receive and then give away what has been given to us through Christ Jesus. Amen.
