And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house. (Luke 19:5 KJV)
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. (Luke 19:10 KJV)
One encounter with Jesus will make the difference!
Have you ever tried to access something, whether at home or at work and you just can't seem to reach it? What do you do? I am sure that you do all you can to ensure you get hold of just what you want. When you finally get it in hand, you feel happy and relieved. Am I wrong?
This should be the same spirit of energy and determination that we all should exhibit in order to get an encounter with Jesus. Friend, ONE encounter with Jesus would make the biggest difference in your life.
Zacheaeus was one of Jericho's most scheming tax collectors. I believe he must have been hated by those around him, for he was rich, and probably gained his wealth through overtaxing. Jesus was now scheduled to pass through the Jericho area and Zachaeaus wanted to meet Jesus for himself.
I love his spirit. He doesn't give up because the crowd is too thick and he is too small. He devises a plan to ensure that he gets to see him. The little man climbs up into a Sycamore tree and he draws Jesus' attention.
Shockingly, Jesus makes a request that surprises everyone. I'm sure even Zachaeus himself. "Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house." (Luke 19:5 KJV)
This encounter made the biggest difference in his life. He receives SALVATION and develops a NEW MINDSET. Even though those around murmured at Jesus' decision to abide with Zachaeus, it didn't bother him. He just reminded them what his mission on earth was, "to seek and to save that which was lost." (Luke 19:10 KJV)
Friend - you too just need ONE encounter with JESUS and you'll never be the same again! With your faith and trust high, God will grant you just what you want. Healing, Victory, Deliverance, Mercy, Forgiveness, You name it!
Don't stay in your corner worrying. It's what you've always wanted, so like Zachaeus, PUSH - Pray Until Something Happens!
(Smiling) When it happens. When your breakthrough comes. It'll draw lots of MURMURERS. Don't worry about them. What God has for YOU is for YOU!
Push Till You Meet Jesus!
