Our Jesus....KNEW WHO HE WAS...is it any wonder He spoke with "confidence in His Voice"?
"Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed," Mark 1:35
"So He Himself, often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed," Luke 5:16
"Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God," Luke 6:12
Is it any wonder that Jesus spoke with confidence in His Voice? Why, He had "heard from Heaven"...by the Spirit....WHO HE WAS...as well as what the will of His Father was in any given circumstance. He "took the time" to be Holy ! He spent much time in secret...with His Heavenly Father...."hearing" and "seeing" the will of the Father! He was trained by the Holy Spirit in times of solitude...which He had....daily!
If Jesus Christ needed time to be "trained" and "taught" as the Son of Man...where to go, what to do, what to say, when to speak and when not to speak....is it any wonder that we need the same kind of training if we are to open our mouth and dare to speak for Almighty Godat all?
When Jesus spoke, the mountains trembled...the winds and waves stopped, sinners and tax collectors left all and followed this one who had "confidence in His Voice". The sick were healed, the lame walked, the blind had sight, the dead were raised and multitudes were saved from Eternal damnation. This one taught...not as the scribes and the Pharisees...but as One with more than confidence.....with Divine Authority! This confidence and authority were part of the character and nature of One who knew "who He was" and "why He was here!"
"Then He said to them all, 'If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me!" Luke 9:23
He has spoken.....once again! Follow Him with the same confidence!
