“Just As He Had Told Them”
“Just As He Had Told Them”
Blessings folk!
So, we are paying close attention to timing elements.
Now, read again.
Note what Jesus says/does.
Mar 14:12-16
On the first day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb was being sacrificed, His disciples said to Him, “Where do You want us to go and prepare for You to eat the Passover?”
And He sent two of His disciples and said to them,
“Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him;
and wherever he enters, say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says,
“Where is My guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’
“And he himself will show you a large upper room furnished and ready; prepare for us there.”
The disciples went out and came to the city, and found it just as He had told them;
and they prepared the Passover.
The disciples had questioned Jesus as to Passover preparations.
Jesus answered by sending two of His disciples to prepare.
He did not just tell them “what to do”.
He told them “what would happen”.
Jesus knew.
Prophetic preparation.
They would go into the city.
A man carrying a pitcher of water would meet them. (Hummm…did not the women usually carry the water?)
They were to follow the man.
Wherever the man entered they were to speak to the owner of the house.
Jesus gave them the exact phrasing.
“The Teacher says ‘where is My guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples.’”
The disciples would then be shown a large furnished upper room.
The room was ready.
They were to prepare there.
They found all to be as the Lord has said.
Do we live in such expectation?
To hear from the Lord in detail?
To know the mind of the Lord?
To abide in Him?
To obey?
To trust?
