Right Beside you

Luke 24 records that two disciples on the road to Emmaus received perhaps the most amazing Bible study ever given; Messiah Himself leading them through the entire Hebrew Scriptures showing what was written concerning Himself. And just as amazing is they were so busy learning about the Lord that they missed the Lord Himself standing right there beside them. So what's Messiah teaching us? The Word of God is filled with His Presence and wonders, and we have to be diligent in studying it. But learning about the Lord is not enough. We have to get to know the Lord Himself. You can get so used to knowing about the Lord and hearing about Him that you miss knowing the Lord Himself. You must never let the Lord only dwell on the pages of the Bible; you must invite Him to dwell off the pages and into your everyday life. Leave the "about the Lord" realm, and meet the Lord of Emmaus Road. Because the same Lord who fills the pages of the Bible dwells beyond them and is sitting right beside you - even right now.

Today's Mission
Today, get into the mystery of the fact that the Presence of God is right there beside you. Spend time just soaking that in.

Luke 24:13-27
13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

Have a blessed day and week.
May Yeshua Hamashiach the Christ bless you.
Love, Lizzy
