Luke 7:11-14 ~ He had compassion on her

Luke 7:11-14

11 Soon afterward he went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a great crowd went with him.

12 As he drew near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow, and a considerable crowd from the town was with her.

13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Do not weep.”

14 Then he came up and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still.

And he said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.”





Jesus. Son of God. Could have handled Himself in so many different ways.

He could have worn a shirt radiating the Heavenly Host, reading, "Jesus Christ Superstar."

He could have shown Himself rising to the pinnacle of the Temple.

Instead, the first person Jesus chose to say, "I'm He - The Messiah." Was a woman who needed Jesus. In a quite place. Just the two of them. Jesus could have left town after He told her. Instead Jesus stayed until all understood what she had said.

Isaiah saw Jesus 700 years before Jesus was born and called Jesus: "Wonderful" "Counselor" "Almighty God" "Prince of Peace". Our Jesus. Is Wonderful.

Jesus wanted His Children - to hunker down? To say sinners we are? No. To Arise in the Glory of God uplifting us.

Jesus knew the young son, the young man of the widow of Nain proved to the great crowd - what Jesus could do.

John 7:31
"After all," they said, "would you expect the Messiah to do more miraculous signs than this man has done?"







And Jesus stuck around for the accolades? No, Jesus had more to do for the Children of God.

Jesus Christ - Lion of the Tribe of Judah

Hebrews 1

2 But in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe.

3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His nature,
upholding all things by His powerful word.

After He had provided purification for sins,
He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.

4 So He became as far superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is excellent beyond theirs.





What has made the Brightness?

The Light of Jesus Christ as the Light of Mankind.

Jesus has said He is the Way, The Truth, The Life.

His life tells us; His Love demonstrates:

Mark 12:33
"To love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself, which is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices."

Hosea 6:6
For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.







John who stayed with Jesus said God is a God of Love.

Hosea 2:20
And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will know the LORD.
