Mark 14
from Perfectly Imperfect Together Hosted by Perfectly Imperfect Together
In Mark 14, we continue to share in the journey to the cross with Jesus. It was time for Passover and as they prepare for the Passover meal, Mary brings an alabaster jar filled with a year's worth of wages of perfume and pours it over Jesus in worship. In humble worship to the Lord, she serves Jesus by preparing His human body for its temporary burial. Jesus knew Judas would betray Him, but Jesus still served Judas. He still washed his feet and broke bread with him. He still hoped his heart would turn to the Lord. Jesus went to pray to the Father before His crucifixion. He was already feeling the weight of taking on the sins of the world and needed to pray. Jesus prayed. Jesus talked with God. We need to pray. We need to be desperate to talk with God all the time. We need to pray without stopping because our spirits are willing, but our flesh is weak. We need Jesus. We need His strength and His Spirit to carry us and help us resist sin and temptations. We desperately need to be praying all day, every day. We need to talk with our Father, our Creator and let Him lead, guide, and strengthen us for whatever may come. We need to stay alert, stay in the Word, keep watch, and never stop praying. Keep the Armor of God on and never take it off.
