Scripture
Mark 1:1-8

Be Ready (Mark 1:1-3)

  • The good news is that Jesus is the Messiah we’ve been waiting for and the God we’ve been longing for (Mark 1:1).
  • When God makes a promise, you never have to question if He will keep it (Mark 1:2).
  • Remove any obstacle in the way of you following Jesus (Mark 1:2-3).

Be Willing (Mark 1:4-6)

  • Being bold in ministry requires a confidence in God and not oneself (Mark 1:4).
  • The people prepared for Jesus through repentance, confession, and baptism (Mark 1:4-5).
  • You don’t have to look like the world in order for the world to look to you (Mark 1:6).

Be Humble (Mark 1:7-8)

  • Never get so caught up focusing on your kingdom that you neglect to prioritize God’s Kingdom (Mark 1:7).
  • A clear view of Jesus will never allow you to be prideful (Mark 1:7).
  • John cleared the path for Jesus; Jesus cleared the path for the Holy Spirit (Mark 1:8).
    • God Outside Us – Father
    • God Beside Us – Son
    • God Inside Us – Spirit
