Jesus Wanted What The Father Wanted!



‘Jesus Wanted What The Father Wanted.’
Mark 1:35-39.
a)      Mark 1:35. Jesus got up in the very early morning.
b)      Mark 1:35. Jesus went out to a lonely place and Prayed.
c)       Mark 1:36. Jesus Disciples followed after Him.
d)      Mark 1:37. When the Disciples found Jesus they told Him that all the people were seeking for Him. (These Disciples had their priorities wrong)
e)      Mark 1:38. Jesus told His Disciples that:-
1-      They all needed to go on into the next towns.
2-     Jesus was to Preach in these towns too. (Go forward and do not go back)
3-     He had come for that purpose.
f)        Mark 1:39. Jesus Preached in the synagogues throughout all Galilee and cast out devils.

c)       My heart greatly rejoices.
d)      With my son I will Praise Him.
(Through this Second one I am encouraged to have A Good Response To The Lord)
