DENY

Many Christian people are living a life of denial for Yeshua Messiah; they are like Peter who denied Yeshua Messiah three times. Later he wept bitterly for his fault. Let us meditate on denial; it happens in absence of faith. Faith comes by hearing the living word of God Then Peter reminded himself of the word Yeshua had said: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny ME three times.” And he went away and wept bitterly. (Matthew 26:75).

The most important aspect ignored often is that our living Elohim Yeshua was already aware of HIS denial by us. What amazing grace and agape Love we enjoy of our precious everlasting Yeshua Messiah? Adonai Yeshua Messiah replied three times to query of Lucifer, the old serpent in the wilderness. Here Peter denied three times. The kind of grace, love and loving kindness we enjoy from our lord Yeshua Messiah is beyond anything in this world, it is very hard to describe and explain in words. Thank you father, thank you Son and thank you Holy Spirit.

The major reason of denial was the absence of Ruach ha-Kodesh (Holy Spirit) in an individual’s life. Holy Bible records without Ruach, no man can say that Yeshua Messiah is the Lord. Due to amazing grace, same Peter who denied Yeshua three times was given three specific instructions from Yeshua after resurrection. Feed my lambs, Take care of my Sheep, And Feed My Sheep. Peter followed these instructions till his last breadth on the face of earth. He was able to so because on the day of Pentecost (Shavuot) he along with eleven disciples was filled with Ruach ha-Kodesh.  The presence of Ruach made the same Peter to boldly proclaim the gospel of Yeshua the Messiah to all people in Jerusalem.

He also made clear to us your love in the Ruach. For this reason also, ever since we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We keep asking God that you might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding— to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and growing in the knowledge of God. (Colossians 1:8-10).  “The reaper receives a reward and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that the sower and reaper may rejoice together. For the saying is true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap what you haven’t worked for. Others have worked hard, and you have joined in their work.” (John 4:36-38)
