Your Devotional message for 4th July, 2023.
Scripture:
And John tried to prevent Jesus Christ, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?” (Matthew 3:14).
Explanation:
In today Daily Meditation, day 04 of the 31 days of the month of June, we will study and meditate on the scriptures relating to our series ‘The Lord, My Divine Helper’-John the Baptist Baptized Jesus Christ.
There are many mysteries in life, even in the Kingdom of God. At times, God uses others on this earth in His divine works. One of those mysteries still surrounds why Our Saviour needed to be baptized by John the Baptist. The Bible says that “then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him. And John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?”(Matthew 3:13-14).
Jesus Christ came to be baptized at River Jordan:
When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”(Matthew 3:16-17).
I pray with you today that as you are reading this daily meditation, May the Lord arise and be your Helper every day and may He deliver you from all evil works in the name of Jesus.
Here are further scriptures:
For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he” (Luke 7:28).
Have you received Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour?
Today, let me encourage you that Jesus Christ came for your salvation and to give you freely Eternal life. If you are yet to receive Christ, do so today by repentance from all your sins and confess Jesus Christ as Your Lord and saviour.
I pray with you today, may you experience a supernatural manifestation of healings, deliverance, signs and wonders in your life, marriage, finance, business, and family in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Glory be to God!
Stay connected as we study and meditate on ‘The Lord, My Divine Helper’ throughout the month of July 2023.
