Jesus’s worthwhile and remarkable exaltation of His Father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the earthly ministry of our Lord, He reverenced and honoured His Father in heaven. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over and over, He made His followers of all ages and you in particular to know, that His Father in heaven was greater than Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He went further to even revealed of somethings that, the Father alone, knew and He did not know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mark 13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 13:32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acts 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Lord reverenced and honoured the Father in His teachings and conduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luke 10:21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight. 10:22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 4:34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 8:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. 8:29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 12:49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. 12:50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 14:31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
17:24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
17:25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Lord made it crystal clear that God the Father was greater than Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also made His followers of all ages and you in particular to know that, His Father is your Father too <\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He has left example for you on how, even you should be relating with God, for you to have ceaseless earthly and eternal blessings from Him .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You have been doing it, continue to do it, till He comes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Revelation 2:25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have not been doing so, then begin to do likewise, like Jesus did <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luke 10:37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
