“WHAT MOUNTAINS ARE FOR” – PASTOR W. F. KUMUYI
KEY VERSE: “Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias” – Matthew 17:4
TEXT: Matthew 17:1-13 (KJV)
1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.
7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.
8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.
9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
12 But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
13 Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
According to Wikipedia, a mountain is an elevated portion of the earth’s crust, generally with steep sides that show significant exposed bedrock. High elevations on mountains produce colder climates than at sea level at similar latitudes. These colder climates strongly affect the ecosystems of mountains.
In today’s text, Jesus took Peter, James and John to the mountaintop, where he was transfigured before them. A cloud covered Jesus and when the disciples looked up, they saw Moses and Elijah standing beside him. A voice came from God in heaven confirming Christ as His only begotten Son. Peter wanted them to remain on the mountaintop, building three tabernacles for Jesus, Moses and Elijah, but what he said was not the mind of God for the hour (Luke 9:33). They soon returned to attend to the case of the epileptic boy.
Peter’s suggestion reflects the thoughts of some believers today. Whenever they attend retreats or camp meetings with fellow believers, they seem glad and satisfied, since they are temporarily separated from the world and its corrupting influences. They must however, understand that the mountaintop is not for habitation, but for reviving. Moses, Elijah and Jesus in our text all went to the mountain to pray at different times and dispensations, but they never remained there. They always came back to continue their ministries.
Irrespective of how exhilarating our experience of prayer and consecration on the mountaintop may be, it is still necessary to come down so we can attend to the numerous challenges that await us.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Never make mountaintop experience an escape from ministry in the valley
