SCRIPTURE:^“The Pharisees came and began to question Jesus. To test him, they asked him for a sign from heaven. He sighed deeply and said, "Why does this generation ask for a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to it." Then he left them, got back into the boat and crossed to the other side." (Mark 8:11-13, NIV)

OBSERVATION:
I asked myself what were the actions of Jesus in response to the questioning of the Pharisees and asking Jesus for a sign from heaven?

1. Jesus sighed deeply!
2. Jesus said, "Why does this generation ask for a miraculous sign?"
3. Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to it!"
4. Jesus left them.
5. Jesus got back into the boat.
6. Jesus crossed to the other side.

INTERPRETATION:
I asked myself why did Jesus say 'no sign will be given to it?'
Jesus saw right through the Pharisees heart and the people of that generations heart. I believe Jesus did not want them to believe in Him for what they could get out of Him but for who He is and why He came for. The miracles Jesus did were not to exalt Himself because time after time Jesus told people He healed not to tell anyone about it. Now why would Jesus change His modus of operandi or MO for the Pharisees. Jesus did the miracles as a means to provide them His Word and teachings to transform them. Every miracle Jesus did had a lesson or principle to it that He wanted those around Him to understand. Yes, there was a time Jesus told others to believe in Him for the miracles but even then it was to point to Father God and the Kingdom of Heaven. That is why Jesus came!

IMPLICATIONS:

I saw important implications for my own life. Jesus wants me to believe in Jesus for who He is and why He came for and not for what I can get out of Him. When I first became a believer in Christ, I became a believer because I had severe asthma as a Hindu and knew Jesus alone could cure me and heal me as He did thousands of years ago. I did not come to Jesus to test Jesus but knew what He could do for me in my life. Jesus did heal me of my asthma. But soon this became a habit and I started to expect Jesus to do all these things for me because I belonged to Him. I wanted the best of everything including all 'A's. A 'B' was like a 'B-sting'. Slowly, my faith was getting shaken because I was not getting what I want.

I am glad just like Jesus did not give the Pharisees what they wanted, Jesus did not give me what I wanted. I wanted Jesus to give me all 'A's in college, etc. Of course when things did not go my way, I was not a happy camper. My mom asked me a profound question:

"Are you believing in Jesus for who He is and why He came or for what you can get out of Him?"

I realized my belief in Jesus was based on the things I could get out of Him more than for who He is and why He came.

Then during a Billy Graham Crusade that came to Pittsburgh, I rededicated my life to Christ because I wanted to believe in Jesus for who He is and why He came and not for what I could get out of Jesus.

Later, the Lord Jesus in His grace and mercy introduced me to InterVarsity Christian Fellowship as a student where I started growing in the Lord.

I am glad that Jesus did not abandon me to my own ways but worked with me even through my struggles. Later on, I went on to become a campus minister with IVCF and my emphasis became counseling broken hearts with the love of Christ and making the Gospel of Jesus Christ the central theme. A Gospel centered message is a Christ-centered message.

The CROSS became central to ministry while I was working with IVCF. Later, I felt I should share what Jesus was teaching me through His Word with thousands of students. I started doing that and to this day because of what the Lord impressed upon me when I was a campus minister with IVCF, I share what the Lord is teaching me but this time through http://www.pittsburghstandard.com

I ask you now dear friend, what does Jesus mean to you?
Dear friend, if Jesus is someone you think you can get a lot out of then you will eventually put yourself in the same boat that the Pharisees did and I did. Jesus is not a genie in the bottle where at our whim, He will give us what we want. That is not why Jesus came nor who He is. That is why Jesus did not give into the wishes of the Pharisees. Jesus did not want them to believe in Him for what they can get out of Him but for who He is and why He came for.

Friend, Jesus does love you and wants you to know who He is. Jesus is God, the Author of Life and the Creator of you and me. Jesus is Lord and Savior of the world whether people believe in Him or not. The Lordship of Christ and Saving Grace of Christ does not depend on whether you or I believe for Jesus will continue to be God for eternity.

The question is what are you going to do with who Jesus is?

What you do will determine what Jesus means to you. If you accept Jesus as your Savior then you are saying that Jesus is the Only One that can save you.

That is why Jesus came to save you and me. Jesus came to save us from the bondage of sin and the trap that Satan set for humanity which humanity fell in due to the test that Adam and Eve failed and got trapped by Satan. Jesus knew only He had the antidote to this virus known as sin and only His antidote can wipe out this virus. So, for you and me, Jesus went to the cross where He was crucified and His precious cleansing blood was shed so humanity can be freed of this virus known as sin when humanity turned to Jesus and asked Jesus for this antidote.

You see friend, God desires that none should perish but all come into repentance so that is why while we were yet sinners Christ died for us to remove Satan's power over us. Satan cannot stand the blood of Jesus and it's power to save for nothing but the blood of Jesus can save.

Jesus loves you so much and went through so much for you and me. You cannot even imagine what Jesus went through and the 'Passion of the Christ' is only a glimpse of what Jesus had to endure. He did it all for you and me to give us His blood to save us. Jesus did it to be your Savior but Jesus will not force Himself in your life.

You mean so much to Jesus that if you were the only one living Jesus would have still died for you on the cross going through that excruciating pain.

Do you believe that?

If you do, you can ask Jesus to be the Savior of your life by turning your life over to Him as you confess and repent of all your sin. When you confess and repent of your sin, you are giving them to Jesus to wash you clean with His precious cleansing blood. Now you are whiter than snow even though your sins are red as crimson. Yes friend for that is why Jesus came to save you by His grace. It is by His grace we are saved. He will wipe you clean no matter how yucky you feel.

But it does not end there for Jesus did not just come to be our Savior but also our Lord. This means Jesus wants to be the Lord of your life. You can make Him the Lord of your life. When Jesus died on the cross, was buried, and came back on the 3rd day, Jesus did that to save but also to show that He is Lord of all creation including death.

Because Jesus was obedient to death even death on a cross, therefore He is now highly exalted that at the Name of Jesus every tongue should confess that He is Lord. That day is coming soon my friend.

You have the opportunity to make today, that day to believe in Jesus as your Savior and also take Him as your Lord. He is your Lord and wants to be the Lord of your life. That means Jesus means so much to you that you surrender your life over to the Lordship of Christ and become His humble servant.

I know I want Jesus to be Lord and Savior of my life for who He is and why He came and not for what I can get out of Him. This is what Jesus means to me that He is my God who has become my Lord and Savior transforming me by the Power of the Holy Spirit. This can happen in your life too. Jesus wants you to be in His arms of love.

May you know Jesus empower souls under Scripture! Amen!

"Jesus Empowers Souls Under Scripture!"(J.E.S.U.S)/"What does J.E.S.U.S mean to you?"

Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for being my Lord and my Savior. You are my God who came into this world as God-incarnate, lived as a human being with divine qualities. Yet, to have a relationship with me that was marred, you went to the cross to restore that relationship by your grace. You shed you precious cleansing blood for me so when I am covered in your blood, my sin is wiped away where Satan has trapped me. Thank you for being my Rescuer. Thank you for being my Redeemer. More than anything you have become my Savior. You want me to believe in you for who you are and why you came then what I can get out of you. Forgive me Lord for I have made you my genie in the bottle many times and am sorry for that. I want you to live in me and transform me by the power of the Holy Spirit. Transform my life Jesus for your honor and glory. Thank you for your Word and what I can learn from it. Teach me your ways and help me to walk in your Truth! Give me an undivided heart that I may fear your Name. Thank you so much Jesus. Thank you that you have heard my prayer and answered me! Thank you for transforming me! In Your Name I Pray Jesus! Amen!!

If you want Christ in your life, make this your prayer. Don’t let the enemy deceive you into thinking you need all the answers before coming to Christ. Let me just assure you though you may not have all the answers right now before coming to Jesus, He will answer them slowly. Yes, He will for I know our Redeemer will! Amen!

Prayer:
Jesus, I thank you for being the Bread of Life. You are the Living Bread of my life. Thank you for coming from Heaven and giving your life for the life of the world. You sacrificed yourself for humanity. Thank you Lord when we eat of you symbolically making you part of our life, digesting what you teach us by following you, we can be living Eternally, and the fruit that comes will reflect and resemble your life. I want that Father God. I want that Lord Jesus! I want that Holy Spirit! I know of a lot of people who partake of Holy Communion where the bread represents your body broken for their sin and the juice represents your blood shed for their sin. When we partake of Holy Communion, we are reminded that we are remembering you. I want to remember you always Lord Jesus. But for me to remember you always, I need to know you and acknowledge everything you said you are. So right now I acknowledge that you are my Lord and Personal Savior who died and rose again to give me life from sin. So right now, I come to you and say how sorry I am for my sin and living a life on my own. I repent of my sin and ask you to forgive me of my sin with your cleansing blood which I accept. Wash me and I will be clean from this infection of sin. Come Lord Jesus and please become part of my life as you live in me and I will live for you. I thank you Jesus for coming into my heart and making my heart your home. Thank you for living in me Jesus and I will live for you and serve you the rest of the days of my life. I do need your Spirit to reside in me and work in me and through me so I surrender all that I am and will be to you. Whatever your will is for me, please give me the strength and willingness to bear it and rejoice in you. Thank you so much Jesus. I thank you Jesus for becoming my Lord and Personal Savior. I thank you Jesus you have heard my prayer and have answered me. I thank you that I am your child Oh God. I thank you for becoming my only Way to Eternal Life. In Your Name I Pray Jesus! Amen!

Friend, if you have prayed this prayer and meant it in your heart, you are a new creation in Christ and all old things are passed away and everything has become new! You may feel something or may not but don’t base it on feelings but base your new life in Christ on the promises of our Savior who will never leave you nor forsake you! Amen!

Spend time in His word and let the Lord speak to you! Start out in the Gospel of John! You can also check out the Gospel of Mark which are the devotionals I have been going through. Learn from Jesus through study and prayer. Also find yourself a church fellowship and a college fellowship you can be part of where you can be part of a community of believers to supplement your own walk with the Lord. Let it be a Bible-believing and Bible-breathing church! Believe in Bible Live Eternally!
