Peter is usually described as a rough and ready Galilean. He had little or no airs and graces but whatever he did he did it with his whole heart. So when he was introduced to Jesus he decided to leave his thriving family business and take time out to sit at the feet of the charismatic teacher.
Throughout his three and a half years of
OMG
studying, Peter saw some amazing things. The first thing he saw was so amazing that he
OMG
could not believe his eyes. Not long after joining up with Andrew, John and Philip, they went to a wedding. And to Peter’s amazement the wine ran out to the embarrassment of the host. Mary, Jesus’ mother said to the servers or ushers, ‘just do what Jesus tells you to do and everything will be alright’! Jesus tells them to fill these purification jars with clean water and then all they had to do was draw from the jars and serve the guests.
After this Peter became convinced that all he had to do whilst following Jesus was exactly what he told him to do.
Today, we want to analyse, dissect and evaluate and re-evaluate everything that Jesus tells us to do. Jesus tells us, seek first the kingdom of God and everything will follow after that (Matt 6:33). This mean that we should enter his kingdom first by renouncing the kingdom of satan, leaving the things we used to do, and the way we used to behave behind and accept Jesus as our new king. Once we do this, the point of our departure from our previous operations is that we are now in a different world where anything is possible.
Following this king is exciting, because he does everything he says he will do and more, if you don’t believe ask Peter! Check out Acts 2:14-44.
