Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.  For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Luke 19:9-10

The meaning of name "Zacchaeus" is 'clean, innocent, pure, righteous,... But his life was not..

 
He wanted to see Jesus..
Zacchaeus, climbed on a tree like a little child.
He went away from the crowd.
He gladly received Jesus ...

 
When God whispers our name, everything will change..
Jesus loves tall and short, black and white, rich and poor, wise and ignorant.. God is love.

 
Zacchaeus longed for a better view of Jesus. He was not satisfied hearing about Jesus from other people.

He ran on ahead of everyone and climbed up a blossoming fig tree to get a glimpse of Jesus as he passed by.Luke 19:4 (tpt)

 
Habakkuk prophet sang the wonderful song..
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights. Habakkuk 3:17-19

 
In Zaccheaus life when he saw Jesus
His life became new, a great joy of salvation filled his heart and feasting started in his home and life .

 
*In the writings of clement of Alexandria,
Zacchaeus was mentioned as prominent Christian leader and elder of church in caeseria.

Tell Jesus, 🎵🎵

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord

Open the eyes of my heart

I want to see You

I want to see You


To see You high and lifted up

Shinin' in the light of Your glory

Pour out Your power and love

As we sing holy, holy, holy


Blessed day...!
