Peter said, I will not go because thou has the words of eternal life. He said to Jesus every one cannot pastor me. You are the one that has the right words.
The word of God is a singular word and not a plural. Therefore the words Peter was referring to were the words of his master. His words of encouragement to them. The Way He would always speak with them. Peter said I know you no longer have the bread to give to us, there is no more money to throw around but I know you have not lost everything completely.
No matter what happens l can't live you, if you were to be Peter would you do that? Would you still look at your true friend when he has lost his job and nothing seem to work again around him and you still confirm your love for him?
Would you still to your wife I love you even when she is seriously sick and has lost her original beauty? Would you say to a faithful friend, I still believe in you even when they are many terrible things you have heard about him or her? Would you a love one, I will stand by you even in his or her mistake?
Sometimes what makes your miracle to happen is not God but your believe for something or in someone. It is always said that success has so many friends. This incident happened to Jesus the son of God, therefore it's not your place to say why should this kind of thing happening to me? Why should every body live me? If Jesus faced it then you are no difference.
Ruth 1:11 - But Naomi said, “Return home, my daughters. Why would you come with me? Am I going to have any more sons, who could become your husband. Return home, my daughters; I am too old to have another husband. Even if I thought there was still hope for me—even if I had a husband tonight and then gave birth to sons. Would you therefore wait till they were grown? Would you therefore refrain from marrying? No, my daughters; it is far more bitter for me than for you that the hand of the Lord is gone out against me. Then they wept aloud again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law [good-bye], but Ruth clung to her
Orpah kissed her mother in-law and left. She had to go because it was time to go. At this point what else was she supposed to do? Every male child of Naomi is death so she had to go but Ruth cleaved.
In verse 16 she said: And Ruth said, Urge me not to leave you or to turn back from following you; for where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people and your God my God.
This was a decision indeed! She said, I know there's nothing to get from you again but l will still follow you. Some times life is not Only about what we can always from people, but what we give. Peter said I cannot leave you. Ruth said I can't leave you, what are you saying? Many of us can be so unstable in our ways. Today, you are here and tomorrow You are there. You can't say one thing longer. Today you are with this ministry tomorrow You are out. You look so unstable in life.
Every Prophet is not for you. Peter knew this earlier and he made up his mind to stay even when everybody had gone. He said to Jesus you have the word I need. There is a man that has what you need. All you do now is to locate him and stay with him. Every woman must not be your wife, and every man cannot be your husband. Every business must not be your business and every church cannot be your church.
Make up your mind to be firm and resolute. I'm talking to you, be steadfast and make your decision now, it is childish To have to many things at a time. If you live this way, you might loose the confidence of people.
Have respect for your decision and stand point. People are watching you. This is the only way your miracle can come to you. The devil knows what you stand to gain from that relationship. that attack and challenges you are seeing is not to weigh you down. In the same situation you are finding a reason to quit, also try and get reasons to stay on. Your miracle is coming, but you must not miss it by leaving God. Some one is carrying your destiny but the devil wants to distract you by uprooting you from his life. It might not happen in one day, it's gradually
Peter says where do I go to? When I was nobody you spoke and I became somebody the best time to know people that truly loves you, are times you have challenges. Don't be carried away by those appraisal. They are doing it because of what they are seeing around you. If those things are not there z you might be shocked over some of their reactions.
Don't be to quick to condemn. Always take time to at least remember one thing you must have gotten from your time in that place or from that person, don't be too fast to judge. We are too much in a hurry to conclude.
There is best for you if only you can hold on.
