John was shunned , lonely, misunderstood and forgotten by many! We’ve been there many times feeling as if no one, not even our Great and Faithful God knew where we were, or understood what we were going through. So John wanted to be sure this Jesus, that he was giving his all for was The One. So he sent his disciples to find out, Jesus sent John this word saying
Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.”
And how often we question God for the same reason. God does know where we are and yes He is The One and true God that understands all we’re going through. Not only that but He knows why it’s necessary for us. An it’s so important to know that Jesus was not offended by John’s question, but sent the answer, bringing peace to his beloved servant. And He has also given us this Assurance that He is The One.
John 14:6 NKJV
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
