Resurrection Encounters – Five Places Jesus Wants to Meet Youਨਮੂਨਾ

Have you ever seen an angry mob?

In 2007, Yeshua Ministries held a concert in Kathmandu, where over 30,000 people gathered. A 50-meter barricade had been set up for safety, but the crowd, wanting a closer glimpse of us, grew restless and turned into a mob, breaking through the barriers. In the middle of my second song, the army had to pull me off stage, and our whole team was rushed away in military vans for protection. 😨

Mine was a crowd of over-excited fans, but I can’t imagine what would have happened if there had been an angry or aggressive uproar. During Jesus’ trial, the same people who once cheered for Jesus turned against Him and shouted for His crucifixion (Matthew 27:22-24).

It’s no wonder that after those events, the disciples hid themselves behind locked doors, fearing for their lives. They had witnessed their Lord brutally crucified, and they might be next (John 20:19).

However, something miraculous happened when, though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!”

Jesus is not usually one to push through locked doors but waits until He is invited in. However, this story shows a beautiful, different side of Him. The fear of the disciples did not hold Jesus back. They did not miss out because they locked a door.

Do you have “doors” in your life made out of fear? Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal them to you.

The good news? When you are stuck behind your own walls and locked doors, Jesus will find a way to come through, even when you don’t know how to open those doors anymore.

As Jesus enters the place of your fears, He says, “Peace be with you! Allow me to drive out your fears with My perfect love!”

Hey! You are a Chamatkar.
