Why Did JESUS Fold the Napkin?

Why did Jesus fold the linen burial cloth after His resurrection? I never noticed this.... The Gospel of John (20:7) tells us that the napkin, which was placed over the face of Jesus, was not just thrown aside like the grave clothes. . The Bible takes an entire verse to tell us that the napkin was neatly folded, and was placed at the head of that stony coffin. Early Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance. She ran and found Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. She said, 'They have taken the Lord's body out of the tomb, and I don't know where they have put him!' Peter and the other disciple ran to the tomb to see. The other disciple out ran Peter and got there first. He stopped and looked in and saw the linen cloth lying there, but he didn't go in.

Then Simon Peter arrived and went inside. He also noticed the linen wrappings lying there, while the cloth that had covered Jesus' head was folded up and lying to the side. Was that important? Absolutely! Is it really significant? Yes! In order to understand the significance of the folded napkin, you have to understand a little bit about Hebrew tradition of that day.

The folded napkin had to do with the Master and Servant, and every Jewish boy knew this tradition. When the servant set the dinner table for the master, he made sure that it was exactly the way the master wanted it. The table was furnished perfectly, and then the servant would wait, just out of sight, until the master had finished eating, and the servant would not dare touch that table, until the master was finished..

Now if the master were done eating, he would rise from the table, wipe his fingers, his mouth, and clean his beard, and would wad up that napkin and toss it onto the table. The servant would then know to clear the table. For in those days, the wadded napkin meant, "I'm finished.." But if the master got up from the table, and folded his napkin, and laid it beside his plate, the servant would not dare touch the table, because.......... The folded napkin meant, "I'm coming back!"

When God made this world, there was no such thing as money. Money evolved with time. With what’s happening in the world today, many now better understand that money is a game of numbers.

What God expects is that you live as the champion that He’s made you. Fear nothing in this world, and refuse to be intimidated. That’s the Gospel. Prosperity is beyond money. The presence or absence of money doesn’t change your state or condition spiritually, and
therefore shouldn’t change your testimony of God.

If, for example, you require something, and your money isn’t enough for it, that doesn’t mean you can’t have it; you can get it free! That’s the life of prosperity I’m talking about. God never said, “Except you have the money, nothing will be yours”; rather, He said plainly, “…all things are yours” (1 Corinthians 3:21).

What’s important is the purchasing power, and your purchasing power isn’t money; it’s your faith! You have what God says you have, irrespective of the currencies you have at hand or don’t have. Believe this and you’d be free from the power and intimidation of money.

The ministry of the Word is so important in our
lives; it’s integral to every success. That’s why we bring the Word to you every day through this devotional, to strengthen you, especially in these dark days. We’re not moved by what’s happening in the world today, because we know that in all these things, we’re more than conquerors (Romans 8:37). We prevail by the Word. Our glory, victories and success were
preordained before the foundation of the world.

We’re aware that the current imbroglio around the world is the handiwork of Satan. He tries to weaken the nations and their economies. But God never leaves you stranded. He keeps bringing you His Word to guide, encourage and strengthen you. Through the ministry of the Word, the wisdom and skill you require to be
victorious are imparted to you.

Keep learning and meditating on the Word of
God; it’ll grow mightily in you and prevail. You’ll be a wonder to your world, dominating circumstances, living above Satan and the elements of this world.

SOUL WINNING WAS JESUS' LIFESTYLE

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature (Mark 16:15).

As a Christian, you must be effective in soul
winning. You’re a missionary here on earth,
an ambassador for Christ. You’re commissioned of God to take the message of salvation to others. That’s the instruction given to us, as read in the scripture above.

Your life should be about soul winning; dedicate your time, effort, and resources to it.
Be known for your passion for the Lord, His
Gospel, and the souls of men. Soul winning was Jesus’ lifestyle. On a certain occasion, as He passed through Samaria on His way from Judea to Galilee, He needed to rest a bit; so He sat at a well, while His disciples went to get some food.

While at the well, a woman came to draw water, and Jesus began to preach the Good News to her (Read John 4). Jesus encountered this woman and brought her out of her shell—the feeling that she was “nobody.” Despite being a total stranger to her, He gave her a new self-value. The Bible tells us to follow His example (1 Peter 2:21) Sometimes, there’re those that we have to reach out to. You may notice someone who’s sitting quietly in a corner somewhere, and you pull a chair and sit beside that one, and say, “Can I be of help to you?”

Then in the process, minister the Gospel to that one. There’s the one who’s alone and seems helpless; then you come by, sit with him or her and you lead them to Christ. Don’t ignore them and act like they’re not there. Become concerned about their plight. Your life is all about being an effective witness for Jesus
Christ. You represent Him in your world.Your lifestyle and actions before non-Christians
should, and must, be such that endear Christ to them, to believe and receive the Gospel. Your job is to win them and bring them into the Kingdom.

PRAYER
Lord, what an honour it is to be enlisted into the ministry of reconciliation! I’ll keep sharing the
good news with those around me, and I’ll do it with courage, boldness and confidence. By your Spirit, I’ll help them learn the Word, showing them the path of life and how to live. I’m effective in the ministry of the Gospel, and through me, salvation comes to many, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth (Luke 12:15).

Remember the words of Jesus, “…a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” The most important thing in life is to discover your purpose, and fulfill it. It begins with living your life for Jesus, making impact with the Gospel; that’s living a purposeful life.



I have a successful life; one that pleases God. I’m fruitful and productive, passionate about the Kingdom of God and its reign in the earth and in the hearts of men. I produce works and results that glorify God; and by the power of the Holy Spirit, I achieve all that the Lord has destined me to achieve, and I have all I require to fulfill my destiny in Christ, in Jesus’ Name

In this pandemic, amidst the lockdown, curfews and uncertainties,
I ask you to raise a Halleluyah 🙏🙋‍♀️🙋

Do you know that the greatest weapon during challenges and uncertainities is your praise!! 🎶

When you choose to sing in the midst of your storm,
Heaven is obliged to come fight for you!
Angels are despatched to your aid!

As you sing praises, 🎷🥁🎤
Your spirit is being empowered and
You will find your spirit singing louder and louder🔊📢
As you begin to hear your praises roar,
Up from the ashes,
Hope will arise! 🎚

Raise a hallelujah, in the middle of your storm,
Raise a hallelujah, in the presence of your enemies,
Raise a hallelujah, louder than the unbelief,
Raise a hallelujah, your weapon is a melody,
Raise a hallelujah, heaven comes to fight for you!

Louder and louder, you're gonna hear your praises roar
Up from the ashes, hope will arise
Louder than unbelief
Louder than fear
Louder than doubts
Louder than debt
Louder than problems
Louder than heartbreaks
Louder than insecurities
Louder than disbelief
Louder than cancer
Louder than sickness
Louder than abuse
Louder than pain
Fear you lost your hold ❌

Raise a hallelujah, with everything inside of you
Raise a hallelujah, and watch the darkness flee
Raise a hallelujah, in the middle of the mystery
Death is defeated, the King is alive!‼️👑
The enemy is silenced and subdued!

Raise a Halleluyah!!!

(I wrote this as I meditated on Bethel's worship song: Raise a Halleluyah. I believe I am speaking to someone right now. Be well my brother/sister, as you offer your praise and Halleluyah.
Be rest assured that Heaven's got you and is acting on your behalf.

Blessings, Love and Prayers,
xx
❤🙏
