Do You Want To See Jesus

MAY 1, 2026
Daily Reading—1 Samuel 18-20 / Luke 20:1-26

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Luke 19:3-4 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

    “Zacchaeus was a wee little man; a wee little man was He. He climbed up in a sycomore tree for the Lord he wanted to see.” Most children who have gone to Sunday School sang this little song. One thing that sticks out to me in today’s passage and the song is that Jesus was coming, and he wanted to see him.

    For many people, the idea of Jesus coming by is a sobering one. If they found out that He was coming to their house, there would be some cleaning up to do. Friend, Jesus already sees what is in your house. Even more important, He sees what is in your heart. If you heard Jesus was passing by, would you run to get a better view or try to hide some things from His view?.  

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

Are you ready to meet Jesus?

IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:

Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this passage and today’s devotion?

Within this reading, do I find a CHALLENGE for my life?

What actions will I take today or this week to meet this CHALLENGE?
