Matt 3:15–17

 

15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented.

16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”

 

One thought:

Christ is everything that humanity (Adam) and Israel was meant to be

 

Three questions:

What does it mean that Jesus is God’s son (consider Psalm 2)?

 

Do you long to please God?

 

How could you please God today?

 

Prayer:

Praise God for His patience with humanity and our failures. Give thanks that Jesus has fulfilled all the requirements of obedience on our behalf and that in Him God is pleased with us. Ask God to help you + someone else offer yourselves as living sacrifices holy and pleasing to God.
