“When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”
They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others, Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

“And you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”
Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but my Father in heaven.
And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

Then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ.
From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and be killed and be raised on the third day.
Then Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. “Never, Lord! This will never happen to you!”
Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, and you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but the concerns of men.“.
Matthew 16:13-23
The Importance of the Gospel of the Day
As Christians, we place a high value on God’s Word. It is through believing in the Word of God that we are saved (Rm 10;17). The Word of God then becomes our guide for life in all circumstances, whether in employment, in social life or even in the family circle. Our aspiration should be to live by the Word of God.

Every day a beautiful text from the word of God for you to meditate on and talk to the Father.
