Matthew 17:1-13
After six
days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them
up into a high mountain by themselves.
He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his
garments became as white as the light. Behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to
them talking with him.
Peter answered, and said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be
here. If you want, let's make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and
one for Elijah."
While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them.
Behold, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in
whom I am well pleased. Listen to him."
When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very
afraid.
Jesus came and touched them and said, "Get up, and don't be
afraid."
Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.
As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them,
saying, "Don't tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen
from the dead."
His disciples asked him, saying, "Then why do the scribes say
that Elijah must come first?"
Jesus answered them, "Elijah indeed comes first, and will restore
all things,
but I tell you that Elijah has come already, and they didn't recognize
him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also
suffer by them."
Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the
Baptizer.
Insight- The transfiguration of Jesus Christ was a new revelation for
three of his disciples and they had the privilege of seeing the supernatural.
The heavenly Father's voice instructed them to listen to the voice of his son.
Question- Do you wait upon God to listen to his voice and do as he
bids?
Prayer- Dear Father in heaven, help me to wait upon you to listen to
your voice and do as you tell me. In Jesus name. Amen.
