Jesus In The Garden---Tender Mercies When You Need 'Em?
Jesus In The Garden-Tender Mercies When You Need 'Em
?
Sharing the full mystery of the cross-Jesus In The Garden!
What does the Bible teach about this subject in light of the full gospel of the Kingdom (and not just the 2/3's of the gospel currently taught in the modern church)? Let's see...
Oh to walk with Jesus in the Garden!
You know, it seems an odd thing to wish for-to walk with Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.
But this is where your tender mercies lie.
Truth be told, you know your going to hurt in this life...
So when it happens, why not embrace it. Why not melt into the loving arms of your Lord?
Jesus In The Garden And You
Boy, isn't it true-that you'll spend your time in your own Garden of Gethsemane...
And can't you remember the times? One by one or altogether at once-it hardly matters... these times that drive their nails into the very depths of your soul?
These are the times of your own Garden of Gethsemane; your own time to walk with Jesus in the Garden.
And walk with Him you should.
For everything meaningful you'll ever learn in life, you'll learn in these times.
Well not quite; but everything you've ever learned in life will become more meaningful during these times.
You'll earn your PhD in life during these troubled times.
Now you might decide that you should anxiously "pray" daily that your time in the Garden might never come (kind of like Job), that God might let this cup of trouble pass from you... but come your troubled times will. It is the way of this earthly life!
So wouldn't it be better to have the right attitude-the attitude of Christ-and simply say "not my will, but Thine be done?"
I dare say it is...
So here's the call of Christ-embrace 'em!
Embrace your hard times. Embrace your time in the Garden. Gird up your loins and steady yourself for the fight.
And whether you are right now walking with Jesus in the Garden, or you find yourself currently enjoying a season of calm, remember this...
Jesus is greater still than all the trials and tribulations this world has to offer.
He is greater still than any rusty nail pounded through your soul.
And he'll walk with you through your deepest need.
His tender mercies are always enough to carry you through.
How do I know? (That is, objectively, and not just based on my own personal experience.)
Because He gained the victory in Hell, overcoming Satan and freeing all of mankind from captivity to that prince of darkness.
That's how I know.
It's written into the whole middle third of the gospel. That powerful meaning between the Cross and the Resurrection.
And you can know it too!
You see, He provides His tender mercies unto you because He has them to provide.
Yes, He faced His time in the Garden. And what happened?
As soon as His time was finished, He became the Lion of the tribe of Juda and victoriously warred against all His enemies.
Now whether your enemy be fear, or pain, or sorrow; a lost spouse or child; a wayward son or daughter... I implore you to just walk with Jesus in the Garden.
Because I can make you this promise: You WILL gain the victory over your trouble! Just as Jesus did the moment He left the Garden and gained victory over Satan through the Cross-even breaking down the gates of Hell and taking captivity captive!
I'll end this walk with you in this way... with this reminder... Jesus Lives!
Trust Him.
Embrace Him.
Walk with Him in good times and in bad.
And you will receive His tender mercies-all that you need every time you need exactly when you need.
For this is your path to gaining that prize of eternal life awarded to all such warriors as you.

In this love of Christ,
Pastor Paul :)
