I'm sorry for not being here..
On a personal note the last couple days have been crazy!!!
Matthew 3
John the Baptist...
To baptise many people, to see the fruit of your work for the Lord. Awesome! To see the Holy Spirit fill the people who were once horrible people. That would of been amazing!!!
I would of loved to be there and seen the baptismal of Jesus and to see the heavens open and a dove coming down... Then to hear the voice telling you "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased."
Good is so great.
In my heart, I wonder I would of dropped everything to follow Him or would I just go about my life. I pray that I would of dropped EVERYTHING!
Matthew 4
To be lead to the wilderness by the Spirit.. Would you follow??
Fasting for 40 day and 40 nights, and then to se the devil tempting you for food and water... who would og thought. He does this so often in our lives, I wonder how many of us can see the devil working on us???
We need to rmemeber it says in 4:7 "You should not put the Lord your God to the test". Satan continued to try and deseve Jesus with his tricks.. Jesus stood strong. "Go, Satan! For it is written. You shall worship the Lord your God, and serve Him Only!" 4:10
Jesus was teaching the importance of leaving your life now for the importance of the kingdom of heaven is at hand. How true that is even today. The world today looks so good and wonderful, however we need to live with heaven in mind. I know I want to be there, when that day comes.
Jesus then starting looking for his disciples, Simon Peter and Andrew were fishing and Jesus said "come follow Me and I will make you fishers of men" This is a personal verse for my family, we love to fish and Randy has been part of a Ministry called Fisher of Men. They fishing in touraments and witness to other men while on the water. I have pesonal been able to paticipate in the meetings and the tourament, wow God is Awesome! Next came James son of Zebedee and John his brother they left what they were doing to follow Him.
Jeus started teaching thru the land, the word od His teaching spread, people wanted hear Him the crowds grow in size.
This time in Jesus life must of been exciting however maybe also nervous. To be a leader of many people and to be taching others of His Father! Did he have to prove himself to others, like we do today?
Chapter 5
The Sermon on the Mount
Jesus went to the side of the mountain, the disciples joined him.
He talked about how we can be blessed when doing His ways and doing good things. Then He tells us we are salt and light in this world. We should let our light shine.
