Hello everyone,
How are doing on this day? I hope well. On top of the verse John 14v5, the Dake’s Bible wrote “Life’s great question.” John 14v5 says:
“Thomas saith unto Him, Lord, we know not whither Thou goest; and how can we know the way?”
Thomas uttered this phrase, after Jesus had told the disciples in verse 4 that – “And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.”
Thomas is here practically taking Jesus back to the basics in that Lord, where are You going – I don’t know, talkless of knowing the way to get there. The question also signifies a fact of Lord, I do not even know You. For if one really knew a person, you would know the person’s house, some information about the person’s background – perhaps their family name or where there family resides e.t.c. But Thomas is saying, Lord, we do not know where Thou goest, although Jesus had in verse 1 mentioned that He was going to His Father’s house where there were many mansions, and was there going to prepare a place for them.
Ever feel like you are asking the most basic question when the Word of God says something? For example, the Word of God might tell you, Be still and know that I am God… and You are asking, hmm, why would You want me to be still? Or, what are You able to help me with? Perhaps You do not realize that He is the Prince of peace, and He is the One that even the winds and the waves obey. May God reveal Himself to us in a mighty mighty way in Jesus name, amen.

Verses for thought:
“For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.” Romans 1 v 20&21

Our dearest Heavenly Father,
We thank You so much for today, we thank You for Your lovingkindness and Your tendermercies. We thank You for Your faithfulness, and we thank You for who we are in You. We glorify You O Lord God Almighty, we praise You for Your mighty acts to the children of God, we re-affirm our love for You and say we are thankful to You. We pray O Lord that we do not look back after we have put our hands to the plough, in Jesus name, amen. Lord of the harvest, we pray that You send forth labourers into Your harvest, for the harvest indeed is plenteous, but the labourers are few. Thank You Father, thank You Son, thank You Holy Spirit of God, in Jesus mighty name we pray with thanksgiving, amen.
