Nathanael

Posted on: 02-07-2011


A small but very impressive and powerful character, which Jesus Christ declared him as guile free Israelite, the bible define Israelites as “Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart (Psalms 73:1 KJV)”. This man was searching for Christ, the Messiah when he heard about a man called JESUS it from Philip, and he couldn’t believe it. Jesus knew his thought and told him when you were standing under the fig tree I saw you. Hearing it Nathanael immediately believed JESUS is Christ, the messiah of Jews. The Fig trees are symbolic of something which is described in book of Proverbs “Who keep the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that wait on his master shall be honoured (Proverbs 27:18 KJV)”. When JESUS CHRIST told him about fig tree he understood the meaning not only what he was thinking few moments back when under the fig tree but also recalled what the holy scriptures written by King Solomon in the above verse. Therefore in the in the passage it is recorded and written Nathanael answered and said unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel (John 1:49 KJV).
The crux of the message is search for JESUS CHRIST with more focus and attention than anything else in this world. Do not worry about your problems, situations surrounding you, your health problems, your financial problems, your social problems. There will be a state when we will meet JESUS CHRIST in person and as soon as we meet him all things of past, present and worries of future will become timid in presence of him. “FEAR NOT” is a word written more than 365 times in the Holy Bible for this particular reason only.
The holy word of God declares “A wicked man hardens his face: but as for the upright, he directs his way. There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD. The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD. (Proverbs 21:29-31 KJV)”


Prayer:

God bless you all in JESUS NAME.
AMEN
