Leviticus 22:17-23:44

Mark 9:30-10:12

Psalm 44:1-8

Proverbs 10:19

 

God drove out the pagan nation and gave favor to the Israelites in battle. Gods people glorified and praised God all day long. Jesus had role of a teacher, he spent time with his disciples and taught them his works.

Jesus says that no sin is worth going to hell for. It is better to repent even if repenting is painful.

What stood out to me is, Jesus sat down with his disciples.  Jesus said "Anyone who wants to be the first, must take last place and be the servant of everyone else". How are you doing with this?  Are you taking last place? Are you the servant of everyone else? Do you think we should model how Jesus lived his life?

True greatness in God's kingdom involve being a servant of everyone else.

So I pray Lord Jesus for church planters ands missionaries to bring the word to unreached areas. Give your servants patience, wisdom and hope. May the gospel be clear through them and to them. May you shower marriages and friendships with spiritual nourishment. May your servants seek the power of the gospel to broken places and grant them protection. When your servants feel weary in doing good give them peace and encouragement. Grant them good working relationships in the work place or where ever they may be. We praise you Jesus, may our workings never be in vain, for we don't minister for you but with you. Your kingdom of justice and mercy will prevail. We pray this in Jesus name,

Amen
