Theme : UPPER ROOM
Luke 22:10-12
And He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters. Then you shall say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’ Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room; there make ready.”
INSIGHT
-Jesus celebrated the passover feast with the disciples in the upper room. He broke the bread & gave them a drink from the vine which represented his body & blood.
-In Exodus chapter 13 to 23, Moses writes the events from passover, feast of unleavened bread & sabbath where Israelites were consecrated before receiving the ten commandments. Moses came down the mountain with his face shining because of God’s presence.
-The upper room was very close to mount olives (Mat 26:30). God was evidently present in the upper room, which is a heavenly place.
PRAYER
Jehovah my God, You are The King of Kings & Lord of Lords. As You took the passover with Your disciples, let me also experience You in my life at the breaking of bread & sharing of wine. My spirit seeks You in the heavenly places so that I can experience You everyday. Let me observe Your commandments with love & purity of heart always. Amen.
Blessed Thursday.
