The 40 days began two days ago…..
Easter, April 4th.

The 40 days is the period of time in which Christ was on earth,

after His Death and Resurrection,

in His glorified state,

ministering and instructing His Disciples,

blessing others with His presence, most likely dwelling on earth and in Heaven.

Validating His Words, as well as the words of others, concerning Prophecy.

Think about this from now until
May 13th…..

That’s right,of

That’s how long it was.

Consider the Joy felt by the disciples during this time.
Consider the validation His earlier words had now, in the minds of those who heard Him say He would rise from the dead.
Consider what the Sanhedrin thought during these 40 days….two of their number had exited …..

Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea.

Consider that those who beheld Him during this period were seeing Christ in His glorified state ….
as we will see Him when He appears again.

He appeared to Mary outside what had been His Tomb.

He showed Himself to His Disciples,
in the Upper Room at John’s mothers house.
He appeared…….to their surprise….. without walking through the closed doors.

He appeared to the two travelers on their way to Emmaus.

He again appeared to the Disciples,
allowing Thomas to be convinced.

His earlier words were validated.

His earlier prophecy of His death and Resurrection was fulfilled.

Validation.

Confirmation.

We do not know this but it makes sense He would not only restore and encourage Peter….

but that He would also instruct the eleven or twelve in what they faced ahead

and how He desired for them to walk into their future.

He also gave them His Constant and Eternal Presence when He spoke to them in John 20 and said to them…

“Receive ye The Holy Ghost”.

He gives the same to us.
If we accept and receive Him.

Think about Him and meditate on this,

and on Him during these 40 days….until May 13.

He was blessing His followers.

He allowed them to know that His Words were validated.

It is as if He was saying …

You see Who I Am…

The Comforter is coming.

Now….

Go….

Do as I did,

and as I  instructed.
