Friday 29 April 2016.
WORD OF THE DAY:
(Johannes 1:4,5)
4. In Him was life, and the life was the light of people.
5. And the light shines in the darkness. And the darkness did not overpower it.
MESSAGE OF THE DAY:
ON THE ROAD TO EMMAUS, First section ...
(Luke 24:13-25)
13. And behold, that very day two of (the disciples) were going to a village called Emmaus, (which is) about seven miles from Jerusalem.
14. And they were talking to each other about these things that had occurred.
15. And while they were conversing and discussing together, Jesus Himself caught up with them and was already accompanying them.
16. But their eyes were held, so they did not recognize Him.
17. And He said to them: "What is this discussion that you are exchanging (throwing back and forth) between yourselves as you walk along?" And they stood still, looking sad and downcast.
18. Then one of them, called Cleopas, answered Him: "Do You alone dwell as a stranger in Jerusalem, and do not know the things that have occured there in these days?"
19. And He said to them: "What (kind of) things?" And they said to Him: "About Jesus of Nazareth, Who was a prophet mighty in work and Word before God and all the people -
20. "And how our chief priests and rulers gave Him up to be sentenced to death, and crucified Him.
21. "But we were hoping that it was He who would redeem and set Israel free. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things occurred.
22. "And moreover, some women of our company astounded us and drove us out of our sences. They were at the tomb early (in the morning),
23. "But did not find His body; and they returned saying that they had (even) seen a vision of angels, who said that He was alive!
24. "Some of those (who were) with us went to the tomb and they found it just as the women had said, but Him they did not see."
25. And Jesus said to them: "O foolish ones (sluggish in mind, dull of perception) and slow of heart to believe (adhere to and trust in and rely on) everything that the prophets have spoken!"
WOORD VAN DIE DAG:
(Johannes 1:4,5)
4. In Hom was lewe, en die lewe was die lig van die mense.
5. En die lig skyn in die duisternis, en die duisternis het dit nie oorweldig nie.
BOODSKAP VAN DIE DAG
OP PAD NA ÉMMAÜS, Eerste gedeelte ...
(Lukas 24:13-25)
13. En twee van hulle was dieselfde dag op pad na 'n dorp wat agt myl van Jerusalem af was, met die naam van Émmaüs.
14. En hulle was in gesprek met mekaar oor al hierdie dinge wat voorgeval het.
15. En terwyl hulle praat en mekaar ondervra, kom Jesus self nader en loop met hulle saam.
16. Maar hulle oë was weerhou, sodat hulle Hom nie kon herken nie.
17. En Hy sê vir hulle: "Watter woorde is dit wat julle met mekaar loop en wissel, en waarom is julle bedroef?"
18. En die een wie se naam Kléopas was, antwoord en sê vir Hom: "Is U alleen 'n vreemdeling in Jerusalem en weet U nie van hierdie dinge wat in hierdie dae daarin gebeur het nie?"
19. En Hy sê vir hulle: "Watter dinge?" En hulle antwoord Hom: "Die dinge aangaande Jesus, die Nasaréner, wat 'n profeet was, kragtig in werk en Woord, voor God en die hele volk;
20. "En hoe ons owerpriesters en owerstes Hom oorgelewer het tot die doodstraf en Hom gekruisig het.
21. "En ons het gehoop dat dit Hy was wat Israel sou verlos; maar nou is dit vandag, met dit alles die derde dag vandat dit plaasgevind het.
22. "Maar sommige vroue uit ons het ons ook ontstel nadat hulle vroeg by die graf was;
23. "En toe hulle Sy liggaam nie kry nie, het hulle gekom en gesê dat hulle ook 'n gesig gesien het van engele wat sê dat Hy lewe!
24. "En sommige van die wat saam met ons was, het na die graf gegaan en dit net so gevind soos die vroue ook gesê het; maar Hom het hulle nie gesien nie."
25. En Hy sê vir hulle: "O onverstandiges, met harte wat traag is om te glo alles wat die profete gespreek het!"
(God willing and by His marvelous grace and mercy, I will share the Word with you, as often as I possibly can. /
As dit die wil van God is en deur Sy wonderbare genade en barmhartigheid, sal ek die Woord met u deel, so dikwels as wat ek moontlik kan.)
