Lessons From A Day

Our goal, the desire we are supposed to have, is to be like Jesus.  So what can we learn from just a random day in the life of Jesus?

Mark 1:21 - 34

Pay Attention
Jesus only speaks with authority!
Focus on how He preached here.
Not on what He said.
See how His presentation was accepted by the audience.
People knew that He knew what He was saying and here for!

Get Ready
Your "stuff" (the demons which plagues us!) will meet:
  • His power
  • His Word
  • His authority
  • His victory
At Church, in fellowship, in His assemblies, is where we need to be.
And He will overcome what plagues us!

Serve Jesus
It is our only way to say thank you to Jesus!
Consider that there are four  parts in this section:
  • Expression of need - Peter's grandmother was ill
  • Request for help - they asked for help
  • Healing - and she was
  • Reaction  - the grandmother served Jesus
Open Your House
Make your home safe for broken people!
Peter's house was where broken people came.
They came to meet Jesus.
They brought their friends as well.
It was where they knew they would be welcome.
