Matthew 17-5
A bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!"
—Matthew 17:5
Thoughts on the Verse
Moses and Elijah appeared with Jesus during transfiguration before Jesus closest disciples. This was the ultimate honor for them as faithful Jews. God, however, wanted them to know that as important as Moses and Elijah are, only Jesus is his Son. His Son's words are the ultimate authority and the bottom-line truth of God's will. If we are to be refreshed, renewed, and restored, we must begin by listening to and obeying God's Son and our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Prayer
Righteous Father, please give me a holy hunger for the words of Jesus. Help me seek to not only understand them, but also live them. Please give me wisdom , as I seek to make decisions and face difficult circumstances with integrity, grace, and obedience. In the name of the Lord Jesus I pray. Amen.
