Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor. Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.” Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet whoever is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
Matthew 11:4-6, 11 NIV +
Written by Jung
“When John the Baptist sent his disciples to ask if Jesus was the one who is to come, Jesus answered it this way: ‘Go and report to John what you have witnessed.’
Then, Jesus praised John as the greatest. John fulfilled the purpose God had given him without a hiccup or hesitation. His dedication to the deed was unmatched by anyone.
Yet, Jesus adds that the least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than he. It literally means that any of you are greater than John the Baptist without his dedication or the sacrifices he made.
How, you ask? It is because you know exactly who Jesus is. It is because you can recognize his voice and have no doubt.
It is our given privilege as those who have received salvation through Christ.
So, brothers and sisters in Christ, what is he doing around you now?
‘But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.’ – Matthew 13:16
Let’s open our eyes and ears and seek him.
