Subject; "Things of God"

Matthew 16:21-28

From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him."Never, Lord!" he said."This shall never happen to you!" Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me;you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men."

As Christians we must remember that we are not in the "drivre's seat" when it comes to doing the work of God. We struggle with ourselves when it comes to denying ourselves of the things we want in life and following the instructions of God. Jesus says in verse 24 that we must learn to deny ourselves of the things of man in order to have in mind the things of God. Let Jesus direct and guide your every movement.
