The Extraordinary Life Of The Master – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional June 3rd

(Everything About The Lord Jesus Was Extraordinary)

TO THE BIBLE: MARK 4:41 KJV
“And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him.”

LET’S TALK
The Lord Jesus’ life on earth was nothing short of extraordinary—His death, burial, and resurrection were just as extraordinary.

Normally, a person crucified on a cross would take at least thirteen hours to die. But Jesus, after only six hours, willingly gave up His spirit.

As He hung on the cross, He cried out to God, saying, “…Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit.” And with that, He took His last breath (Luke 23:46).

A soldier, wanting to confirm He was really dead, pierced His side with a spear. To everyone’s shock, blood and water flowed out—proof that His heart had ruptured. No one expected Him to die so quickly.

His resurrection was also extraordinary. Upon the request of the Jewish leaders, the Romans had sealed the grave where He was buried with a great stone and assigned armed soldiers to watch it.

On the third day, an angel, glittering like the sun, came down from heaven and moved the great stone away and sat on it, and the Lord Jesus gloriously came out of the grave. Hallelujah! He was later with His disciples for forty days and forty nights.

On the day He was to leave, He didn’t suddenly disappear. While talking with His disciples and giving them instructions, the Bible records that He levitated from the ground, defying the law of gravity.

His disciples watched in utter amazement as He kept ascending, until He went all the way into the clouds. This was a most extraordinary moment.

The Bible says one day, and it’s no longer far away, this same Jesus will return again in an extraordinary fashion, and the whole world will see Him. It’s going to be glorious; and we’re all getting ready for the Master’s soon return.

He’s called us to an extraordinary life of glory and wants us to make this life of excellence and grace known to others and prepare them for His glorious return.

Matthew 27:50-54; Acts 1:10-11

Pray:
Lord Jesus, thank you for the extraordinary life of miracles, power and glory that we have in you. Thank you for making me a vessel to spread the message of salvation and prepare the hearts of men for your soon return. Amen.
