Good Morning Church,
Today is day 20 on our 40 day journey to bring ourselves closer to God. Another milestone in our journey as we reach the halfway point. Today’s text is found in Luke 3:21-22
Luke 3:21-22
21Now when all the people were baptized, Jesus was also baptized, and while He was praying, heaven was opened, 22and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased."
This example of Christ is a little different. We have read about Jesus getting away for quite time, about praying when He was under distress and about Him praying when something needed to be accomplished.
Here we see Jesus praying as He is being baptized. It must have been a very happy time for Jesus as He is not very far into His journey. You can almost feel the excitement as you read the passage.
How many times do we neglect our relationship with God when things are going good? Maybe we shouldn’t, Jesus got a very special reward in the form of the Holy Ghost for His faithfulness.
