Luke 24: 51 While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven. 52 Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy.53”and were continually in the temple praising and blessing God. Amen.”

Abiding in His presence and hiding inside the shelter of His wings is the best place ever in this world today! 

The above scripture set me thinking; now look, their Leader had said cheerio and left for Heaven after blessing them; it was actually a sad, poignant moment of being left alone on earth; until that point of time they had depended on Jesus for their living, shelter and their future and now He was gone after giving them heaps of advices and blessings. Instead of mopping around and mourning, the disciples after bidding farewell to their Master they "returned" to Jerusalem and were continually in the temple praising and blessing Him. Hallelujah!

 Remember the hostility, opposition and danger that still prevailed in that city and yet, instead of running away, they returned to the lion’s den. Where the Master commands you to go there He would tarry with you as well! No finger can touch you! Glory to Jesus! Further, they continually stayed in the temple! Fellowship with believers, worship and church is your cocoon! Are you listening? Here is a teaching point for you and me! Listen!

When I was going through a crucial period of waiting for some important issues to be sorted out in my life, God pointed out this scripture to me and I praised God for the Word. I literally held the Bible and wept! The disciples having lost their spiritual Mentor and Savior drew strength from continually being in the temple! If you are going through intense pain and suffering due to loss of a loved one or loss of job or whatever may be the loss…………the best place to abide is being in a good prayer meeting, worship, church or if you can stay undistracted in His presence---do it!
