Walking in the Word
Luke 3:21-22 (New King James Version)
21 When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened. 22 And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
It's awesome to see the mighty work of God and hear His voice. Jesus was the Son of God and had all authority (meaning He could do anything He wanted), but instead He chose to follow the command of His father. Jesus was obedient to his father in and through baptism. Have you made a decision to follow Jesus? To ask Him into your heart as Lord and Savior? Your next step would then be baptism. And even though a dove will probably not descend from the sky into the church, you can be sure that God is very proud of you.
Praying in the Word
Father, I pray that I would be completely obedient to Your will. Thank you for your Son who not only showed me how to live, but gave His life as a ransom for all. Thank you for such a loving Son. In His Name, Amen
