Be like John!

John the Baptist knew his place in this world and did what the Lord called him to do. May we be like John!

            1. John came to prepare the way for Jesus. 

Matthew 3:3

3 For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying:

“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.’ ”

May we prepare the way for the second coming of Jesus by spreading the gospel as He has commanded us to do!

2. John knew his place! A servant of God.

Luke 3:16 

16 John answered, saying to all, “I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

May we always be humble and know we are serving the King of Kings and the Lord of Lord's whom we are not worthy of serving but because of His great love for us we have been given the privilege to serve Him and worship Him forever!!!!

Many want to be like Mike (Michael Jordan) but we need to be like John and do what the Lord has called us to do!
