Mark 8:29-33
“But you,” he asked, “who do you say I am?” Kefa answered, “You are the Mashiach.” Then Yeshua warned them not to tell anyone about him. He began teaching them that the Son of Man had to endure much suffering and be rejected by the elders, the head cohanim and the Torah-teachers; and that he had to be put to death; but that after three days, he had to rise again. He spoke very plainly about it. Kefa took him aside and began rebuking him. But, turning around and looking at his talmidim, he rebuked Kefa. “Get behind me, Satan!” he said, “For your thinking is from a human perspective, not from God’s perspective!”
How much we are like Kefa, first seeing Yeshua in all His glory, having discernment into His commission, coming into understanding about servant leadership and then shutting down the supernatural in our life and falling on to our own understanding that is based in our flesh. Yeshua challenges us to daily see things from God’s perspective and not our own. It is when we are focused on ourselves we fail falling into selfish sin but when we are focused on ADONAI, then we soar on the wings of eagles letting our light shine our to the world. Lord let me be open to Your Ruach so all can see You through me. I ask this in Yeshua’s name, amen.
