Where did this son of a carpenter get such wisdom? He speaks like no man has ever spoken. Isn’t he lowly Mary and Joseph’s son? He has not the pedigree to speak such words that are undeniably wise?
Jesus asks the disciples, “Who do people say that I am?” They answered, “Some say John the Baptist? Maybe you’re Elijah or Jeremiah. Perhaps one of those good prophets from the old days?”
Jesus then asks, “Peter, who do you say that I am?”

What matters for me, in my faith walk, is WHO I, Travis Martin, say that He is, in my heart. It doesn’t matter who the world says He is, because each person must work out their own salvation with fear and trembling. I say, like Peter, Jesus, sweet Holy Spirit, YOU are the Son of God, Almighty God, Wonderful Counselor, The Great I AM, The Great Physician, The Chief Shepherd, The Highest Priest after the order of Melchizedek, and the Lover of my soul. Unlike men, you keep promises and upon this rock, chief cornerstone and declaration I know you will build me and your bride up and the gates of hell will not prevail against me.

The Holy Spirit can do mighty works in our lives if we only believe. Yet, mighty works can not be done when there is unbelief. Faith comes by hearing and hearing comes by the Word of God. How can they hear without…..

Jesus you are more than a carpenter’s son and I am thankful that you chose what the world calls weak to make the mysteries of Love manifest to those who would believe on you and your name.

Today is the day of salvation. Today I will do my best to walk in the Spirit rather than my flesh so that you can do a mighty work in my life.
I love you Jesus. I am covered today by your grace, in faith.
