Then he took the twelve aside and said to them, “See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written about the Son of Man by the prophets will be accomplished. For he will be handed over to the Gentiles; and he will be mocked and insulted and spat upon. After they have flogged him, they will kill him, and on the third day he will rise again.” But they understood nothing about all these things; in fact, what he said was hidden from them, and they did not grasp what was said. (Luke 18:31-34 NRSV)
How many times have you read the Bible and wondered what in the world you just read?
How many times have we read something about the disciples not getting what Jesus has said to them? They didn’t get it, and neither do we sometimes…
Jesus spoke clearly to them and today God is speaking clearly to us, yet we are sometimes so hung up on our tradition and the way we have always done it or known it to be we can not hear what God is saying new…
So are you hearing God speak to you and not able to hear Him because you are stuck in your tradition? Listen to God and hear Him, and don’t worry if it doesn’t make sense right then, God would not lead you astray.
