TOPIC: THE LORD KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE
TEXT: Luke 19:34 And they said, “The Lord has need of him.”
Luke records: ‘He sent two of His disciples, saying, “Go into
the village…you will find a colt tied, on which no one has
ever sat. Loose it and bring it here. And if anyone asks you,
‘Why are you loosing it?’…say to him, ‘Because the Lord has
need of it'”‘ (Vs. 29-31 NKJV). Who notices a donkey tied to a
tree in a town where nothing ever seems to happen? Jesus!
During the busiest week of His life, on His way to Jerusalem
to die, He paused for a lowly colt, saying, ‘Bring him to Me.’
There’s a lesson here for you. Jesus knows where you are
today, and when the time is right He will call you.
Notice the words, ‘A colt…on which no one has ever sat.’
Maybe that’s because nobody placed much value on it.
Without mincing words, when God has a plan for your life,
He’s not influenced by those who overlook or underestimate
you. Note also the phrase ‘a colt tied’. You may be tied up
with legitimate things like raising a family or holding down a
job. Or you may be tied up with illegitimate things you can’t
even talk about. Either way God knows, and He’s bigger than
your problems.
Note the words, ‘If anyone asks you, “Why are you loosing
it???…say to him, “Because the Lord has need of it.”‘ This is
amazing: neither your friends nor your foes control your
future—God does. How long had the colt been tied to that
tree? Days? Weeks? Months? We don’t know. Definitely, this
much is sure, when the Lord says, ‘Loose it and bring it
here,’ the clock starts ticking and His plan for your life starts
falling into place. — No one can beat God- Trust Him.
MEDITATION: Psalm 139:1-18.
