Luke 22:8 ” Jesus sent Peter and John saying, ‘Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.’ “

Jesus knew that the time of His destiny was at hand, and so sought one last intimate meal & time of fellowship with His disciples. He chose this upper room where He could share those most precious moments with His closest followers & friends…the twelve Apostles. Now an upper room in Jesus’ time was more of a family room, an open air space on the roof where family & friends would gather at the end of a long day to reconnect, share stories, and sip tea…and was considered a very important part of the social fabric. So today I would pose to you this question…Do you have an upper room? A place to encounter Christ, but more importantly, where Christ encounters you. For it’s in this upper room where Jesus can fill & equip… where we can share true intimacy with our Savior…and where we can go at the end of a long day to fellowship with our Master. We all need to have an upper room…but remember this, an upper room isn’t about the place but about the Presence.
