Luke 2:49, we see Jesus telling His parents that He must be about His Fathers business. In other words, Jesus is saying that He must do the things that God called Him to do. The fact is that you and I both need to be about the business of God. What has God called you to do today?

Mark 14:32-42, Jesus catches His disciples sleeping 3 times in these verses. While we might be quick to condemn them for that act, we are, in fact, no better than they are. It’s time we get serious about our faith, get serious about reading the Bible, get serious about prayer and get serious about witnessing.

Mark 12:41-44, we see the story of the widow and her mite. In this account, Jesus is sitting by the treasury watching as people were putting money into the church. Many came putting in large sums of money, then a widow came with her few pennies. Jesus made a statement about the giving He saw that will probably shock us. Find out what we need to learn about this account.

Mark 3:1-6, here we see Jesus challenging the Pharisees about what is right. As Jesus was teaching in the synagogue, a man with a withered hand was present. Jesus was going to heal that man, but challenged the Pharisees if it is right to do good or evil on the Sabbath. Jesus was angered at the hard hearts displayed by the religious leaders. Why? Because they focused on the outward appearance. They liked the places of prominence, they liked to “show” their religion, but in reality, their hearts were far from the Lord. Where are you focused on, looking the part, or being right where God wants you to be?

Matthew 28:11-15, these verses teach us about faith. Specifically, not to allow the lack of others peoples faith affect your faith. In the verses I read, we see the religious leaders bribing the guards at the tomb to tell people that the disciples stole the body of Jesus. What hogwash. Yet, an entire nation believes that story.

Matthew 25:1-13, These verses teaches us about 5 people who were ready, and 5 people who were not at the coming of the bridegroom. Of course, this is a picture of the return of Jesus. Are you ready? Looking at Matthew 24, we see where Jesus tells us what is going to come at the end times, and we can see much of it happening now. Are you prepared?
