Mathew 14:22 -23
22 Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He sent the multitudes away. 23 And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there.
This scripture highlights an interesting contrast in how Jesus related with the disciples and the multitude.
What we notice in this scripture is that Jesus made the disciples get into a boat with Him, but the multitude/crowd he sent away.
When you read through the gospels, the one thing that will amaze you is how Jesus differentiated between disciples and the multitudes.
It is therefore of utmost importance for us to see the difference and take a lesson from this.
Let’s explore the differences in His interaction.
