Open the Holy Bible in the book of Matthew, chapter 16 and verse 13, says the Lord of Hosts: "And when Jesus was come unto the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Who do men say to be the Son of man? " (Matthew 16:13) Jesus, knew what the disciples thought, just as He also knows what you and I think and still what you and I will think. In the past society was divided into people who believed in Jesus and people who did not believe in the Messiah, we have a clear example of when Jesus was on the cross, had two thieves by his side, one believed and had salvation, the other, but he did not believe and consequently did not have eternal life in heaven. And this happens these days, many believe that He is the savior, but many also do not believe. But one thing is certain, my dear brother, your faith will lead you to incredible places. "And they said, Some, John the Baptist, some Elijah, and some Jeremiah, or one of the prophets." (Matthew 16:14) They divided the answer into three parts, using three names of great prophets, which showed that society, even believed, somewhat by far, can say, however, none of those answers, confessed that Jesus was the King , the Messiah. "And Simon Peter said to him, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.'" (Matthew 16:15, 16) Translating, Peter, acknowledged that Jesus was the only one who could save. Jesus wants to see attitudes towards Him.

"And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjonas, for he hath not revealed flesh and blood to him, but my Father which is in heaven." (Matthew 16:17) Jesus had such a great and sensitive spirituality that He knew what came from God and what came from man, and so He was certain that that answer came directly from God.

"For I also say unto thee, Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." (Matthew 16:18) The church would be built upon Jesus, the church is us, me and you, and the devil and company, will not overcome us! "And I will give thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." (Matthew 16:19) These keys that Peter received, only served for Him, because each one has his own key, understand that this is a figure of speech, Jesus did not give a bundle of keys in Peter's hands, but He invested power in Peter's life, and so he could open and close any situation. Your prayer is the key, and the moment you pray, it will certainly open any closed door. Jesus, needed to go to be killed and rise on the third day, and so everyone would have the chance of eternal life. However, Peter said to Jesus not to go, but the Messiah answered: "But he turned and said to Peter," Satan is behind me, for you are a scandal to me: for you do not understand the things of God, but only those of men. " (Matthew 16:23) We can see that in a short time, in the same mouth, the Holy Spirit spoke and satan also spoke, but Jesus had the discernment of knowing who was who. And this discernment that you and I need to have. Know when the voice comes from God or when it comes from the enemy. Jesus thought of us, and so He died on the cross, so that today we might have eternal life.
