John 21 ~ Jesus revealed himself again




John 21



After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way. 2 Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.

4 Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. 5 Jesus said to them, “Children, do you have any fish?” They answered him, “No.” 6 He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish. 7 That disciple whom Jesus loved therefore said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea. 8 The other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards off.

9 When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire in place, with fish laid out on it, and bread. 10 Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught.” 11 So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, 153 of them. And although there were so many, the net was not torn. 

12 Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” 

Now none of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord. 13 Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so with the fish. 14 This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the disciples after he was raised from the dead.

15 When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?” 

He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” 

He said to him, “Feed my lambs.” 

16 He said to him a second time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” 

He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” 

He said to him, “Tend my sheep.” 

17 He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” 

Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?” and he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” 

Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep. 18 Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.” 

19 (This he said to show by what kind of death he was to glorify God.) 

And after saying this he said to him, “Follow me.”

20 Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them, the one who also had leaned back against him during the supper and had said, “Lord, who is it that is going to betray you?” 21 When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?” 

22 Jesus said to him, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me!” 

23 So the saying spread abroad among the brothers that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, 
“If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?”

24 This is the disciple who is bearing witness about these things, and who has written these things, and we know that his testimony is true.

25 Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.











John starts so many of His Books off at the beginning. This is the Last Chapter of the Gospel of John. John spends more time teaching us about Jesus actually alive for 40 days. Luke understands we want to know about Jesus alive on this earth and Luke continues Jesus alive in "The Acts of the Apostles."

When we pray we wonder how our prayer is to influence The Book of Life. God's Thoughts, who has been a counselor to God?

Isaiah 40

12 Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or marked off the heavens with the span of his hand? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on a scale and the hills with a balance? 13 Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD, or who has given Him counsel? 14 Whom did He consult to enlighten Him, and who taught Him the paths of justice? Who imparted knowledge to Him and showed Him the way of understanding?


Wouldn't we upset The Majesty and Glory of God The Almighty to ask The Omnipotent to cast His Plans back?

The Bible says if we ask in Faith, then we Receive. And why isn't this always going to work like a yoyo?


The Bible and the Book of Life are Living. My Grandmother Anita enjoyed looking at the Greeks and Chinese Philosophy to find mankind searched for our God, Eternal God, and in Jesus Christ, our Father. Anita proclaimed if one had not heard of Jerusalem or Yahweh - what would they find. Paul understood. A college friend came to me and said she tried Church, her parents weren't keen, but they all knew each other so well. And told all these stories about friends, but it was difficult to find heads or tails of the good friends. Their names were "Matthew, Mark, Luke and John." If we don't remember this - we lose sight of explaining Jesus Christ.

Acts 17:23
For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: ‘To the unknown god.’ What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you.


The Greeks were very irritated by Oracles. So vague. And yet, the Magi knocked on the front gate of Herod to find Jesus. We will fully understand Revelation in Heaven. Isaiah is far better understood after the New Covenant was given to us by Jesus Christ in His Death and in His Life.

St. Augustine was surrounded by pagans and a devout Christian as the world accepted Christianity in the Roman Empire. St. Augustine felt life was good and God was far down the path and would appear as needed if Augustine ever felt he was close enough to Heaven. Why pray when God has His Path Correctly Aligned?

Why Pray in the face of something overwhelming? And not changeable with human direction? And CS Lewis says prayer only changes the heart of those praying. As if it's all pretty hopeless. Why not consider God is so far beyond, above and Perfect, we won't understand the goodness in anything ugly and horrid in life. Why try. Jesus seems to just bless us to be sinners.


I guess if we believe all the History of The Bible is becoming increasingly shown to be Truthful, we might have to look at Hezekiah. The boldness of Hezekiah. To go past all of his life long training to be in influence even as the Assyrian Empire begins to demand tribute of the Gold of the Temple itself. Hezekiah decides not on his watch. Hezekiah has believed for so long he matters - he doesn't want to destroy the History of David and of The Words of God to allow The Temple to fall in his lifetime. Something is greater than influence. God.

It is a meeting point.


To admire the Majesty of God. To be inspired not to offend Him. To decide life is short and we want to make meaning. To believe that we are not just dust in the wind. To awaken to find Light lives within us. To find His Mercy, God's Tender Mercy, would ask us to let Him know what we need and want. To be humble enough to believe God.

Believing God elevates us enough to say Jesus counted me worthy to die for me. To be humble enough to say sinners are saved in Jesus.

To have such need like the woman grasping the fringe of Jesus' hem, Jesus would want to know her heart, her need and to Help.

From this viewpoint, everything is up. The woman was willing to interfere. She was humble and, yet, she was bold. The woman holding on the the fringe of Jesus' hem actually interrupted Important Ministry of Jesus Christ, Son of God. Jesus was importantly called to save something utterly impossible for a man, Jairus, Synagogue Leader, who could elevate Jesus, the Carpenter's son. Mark 5.

Jesus stopped for the woman on the dusty path, in the dirt, who barely grasped His Robe. Actually Isaiah delighted in Isaiah 6 to see the hem of Jesus' Robe.

The woman, like St. Augustine, had had years and years and years of suffering and thought to be bold enough to even give God a try.




So what does matter to God, Heaven or earth?
Life.




Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow.
Hear O Israel the Lord thy God is One. Is anything too difficult for God? Paul explains in great length in The Book of Hebrews, God is on time. Jesus told the Faithful, the huge Crowd always seeking Jesus from the First Day of His Ministry - Blessed are your eyes, for prophets (and even Angels) longed to see what you see. But more blessed are the eyes that did not see, and yet, Believe.

The formerly blind man discussed in Mark 8.
Jesus didn't leave him, and his eyes required Jesus to touch him twice to be healed.

Today - we see this would be an adjustment of not just eyes, but brain to eyes. Our generation would be the first to understand this in two millenniums. All the massive amounts of biblical archaeology - this generation - explaining as our phone links up to satellites - now this generation - of two thousand years where Israel didn't exist - today - is the day Israel is a land of milk and honey. A prophecy of Moses is alive today.

Life matters to Jesus. Today.


Psalm 147
3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. 4He determines the number of the stars; He calls them each by name. 5 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit.





Abba,

We come into this world usually alone. We usually have a time to meet eternity and go alone. Don't we all have great compassion for those who left loved ones at the door of the hospital - to find they have passed away after struggling to continue.

We pray caregivers time, assistance, equipment in the Hospital to link those afflicted with Covid 19 to zoom to connect with those they love. To have the comfort of the sight and sound of Love. Love is the purpose of God.

We ask Life. We thank You, God, to find nations have been fighting the good fight to win life against Covid 19. We ask Covid 19 to go no further.

You hear all of our prayer requests. Help our prayers to always be mindful to put our genuine selves before You in asking is the only option we have. Sincerely.

We would like to please You. Help us to live Lives seeking You and Your Kingdom first. To live Love, Peace and Joy. Knowing the Joy of those we Love covered in our Jesus.

We ask You, for Elliott's continued healing. Thanksgiving Jim is in Healing Process. For ears to function and eyes to see. Thank You for prayer requests heard and prayed for.

Jesus is the exact Nature of Father God.

Romans 4:20
No unbelief made him waver concerning the promises of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God.


Deuteronomy 32:3-4
I will proclaim the name of the Lord. Give our God the greatness he deserves. He is a rock. What he does is perfect. All of his ways are fair. He is a faithful God who does no wrong. He is honorable and reliable.

Romans 8:28
We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God
-those whom he has called according to his plan

Almighty God, unto whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid; cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy Holy Ghost,
that we may perfectly Love thee,
and worthily magnify thy Holy Name in Christ our Lord.
Amen.



♔ Lord Jesus Saves!

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
