Jesus was totally focused to fulfill His purpose. Many signs and wonders were shown, but still there were those who refused to believe. As we step ahead, we seek to make known theses signs and wonders by documenting them throughout the journey.

After raising Lazurus from the dead, Jesus continued to fulfill His purpose. As we read the Word in John 11:45-57, we note that many saw what Jesus had done in raising Lazarus from the dead and believed, but some felt threatened by Jesus because He was getting more and more popular with the people. Those that still did not believe went against Jesus by telling the Jewish leaders what had happened.

No matter what we do to make a positive impact, there will be those against us who have arterial motives. In this case, the Jewish leaders had political motives since they knew the Romans were threatened by Jesus.

The Jewish leaders didn’t want to rock the boat because they thought the Romans might take away the temple and their nation if they didn’t deny Jesus. The Roman leaders were concerned that more and more would follow Jesus rather than the Roman government who wanted total control over the people.

When a plot to kill Jesus started, Jesus went to a small village away from the public. He stayed with His disciples to prepare them for the rough days ahead. He gave up some comforts and went through adversity in order to fulfill His purpose; to die for the children of God and enrich the world.

This day with You Lord, we step ahead on this journey with organization, documentation, and affirmation. We press on to impact those around us with the power of Holy Spirit inside to guide.  Direct our steps to carry out the plan that frees us from those that want to control us. For with You Lord, there is liberty and total victory! Amen.
