The Disciples’ Disciplines!

1/26/2015

0 Comments

 
Scripture Reading:  Mark 1:10-14

Memory Verse:
"No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it." Hebrews 12:11

1.  Decision & Declaration
  • There is a place and time of beginning in every journey!
  • Baptism sets up a starting marker! A spiritual birth certificate!
  • Baptism allows for a two way affirmation, a call and response! We hear Jesus call, we respond, and then God, who called us in Christ Jesus, responds to our response!
2.  Deliberate Obedience in the Spirit: Luke 4:1-14
  • Spiritual Testing: 
         1)  Testing can be our proving or our undoing!
         2)  God is supremely powerful in the test! He is on your side!
         3)  Spiritual testing is primarily about your identity and responsibility as a son or daughter of God! (Priorities, Power,                   Privilege)
         4)  Trials and testing are never over. They return at the right time!
         5)  Scripture is your ally! Jesus quoted Deuteronomy 8:3, 6:13, 6:16
         6)  Discernment is critical as the devil quotes Scripture as well! Psalm 91:11-12. Proper application of the Bible is the               issue!
         7)  Victorious disciples approach life and ministry in the power of the Holy Spirit!
  • Mission of the Kingdom: Mark 1:14-15 
         1)  The mission makes the discipline worth it!

SO WHAT?
  • Have you clearly marked the beginning of your journey with Jesus? Be baptized!
  • Have you deliberately committed yourself to prepare for success in spiritual tests?
  • Have you yielded completely to letting the mission of the Kingdom be your life mission?
