Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Luke 9:10-13
9:10. And the apostles, when they had returned, told Him all that they had done. Then He took them and went aside privatelyinto a deserted place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.
9:11. But when the multitudes knew it, they followed Him; and He received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of healing.
9:12. When the day began to wear away, the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding towns and country, and lodge and get provisions; for we are in a deserted place here."
9:13. But He said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we go and buy food for all these people."


Jesus went aside privately to face the cruelty of Herod. Herod was the illustration of Satan. So, the cruelty of Herod was the one of Satan in the form as follows:
  1. Sins up to the peak of sin, namely sin of eating-drinking and marrying-giving in marriage.
  2. Temptations and impossible problems, so we become disappointed.
  3. Hatred without a cause up to persecution of antichrist for three and half years.
To face the cruelty of antichrist, our attitude is going asidelike Jesus did.

The practices of going aside are as follows:
  1. The praying.
  2. Ministering.
AD 2. MINISTERING.
Luke 9:13
9:13. But He said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we go and buy food for all these people."

We have to become the servants of God, namely the priests and kings.
A priest is a holy man, one who has ministry and ministers to God faithfully and correctly.

1 Peter 2:5
2:5. you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

So, we will be used in the building of the perfect body of Christ or becoming the bride of the Heaven.

Revelation 12:12-14
12:12. "Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time."
12:13. Now when the dragon saw that he had been cast to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male Child.
12:14. But the woman
was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wildernessto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent.

The bride will be given two wings of a great eagle and the usefulnesses are as follows:
  1. Evacuating us to the wilderness to make us far from antichrist.
  2. Lifting us up on the glorious clouds when He comes a second time. We enter the marriage supper of the Lamb of God or the perfect marriage.
    Afterward, we enter upcoming Paradise, A Thousand Years Kingdom of Peace until New Jerusalem.

There are three kinds of hindrance in the ministry to God as follows
:
God blesses us.
