KEEP THE UNITY / EPHESIANS 4:3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Ephesians 4:3

Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

KEEP THE UNITY / EPHESIANS 4:3

“The unity of the Spirit” cannot be created by any human being or group of believers. As Paul has already emphasized in Ephesians 1 – 3, this unity already exists for those who have accepted the truth and received Christ. The Ephesians are now to maintain that unity, not through human efforts or organizations, but by living “a life worthy of the calling they have received” (Ephesians 4:1). Spiritual unity is not a matter of intellectual agreement on all issues. It is a unity of love and purpose (Ephesians 4:17-18) and is maintained by being loyal to the truth and moving in obedience to the leading of the Spirit (Ephesians 4:1-3, 14-15; Galatians 5:22-26). This unity is based on Christ’s love and purpose at work in and through our lives. It cannot be achieved “by human effort” (Galatians 3:3). It will, however, express itself outwardly in good works (Ephesians 2:10; Galatians 6:10; Titus 2:14; 1 John 3:17-18; Psalms 133:1-3; John 17:21).

EVERYONE DESERTED HIM / MARK 14:50

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Mark 14:50

And they all forsook him, and fled.

EVERYONE DESERTED HIM / MARK 14:50

We should not compare the failure of Peter and the other disciples at the time of Jesus’ arrest to the spiritual and moral failure of pastors or leaders after Christ’s death and resurrection. There are several reasons why we cannot compare the two situations equally”

  1. At the time of their failure, Peter and the disciples were not yet under the new covenant (God’s plan of spiritual salvation and a renewed relationship with people through the life and sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ; Mark 14:24). The new covenant did not go into effect until Christ died on the cross (Hebrews 9:15-20).
  2. Peter and the disciples had not yet experienced being “born again” spiritually (John 3:3-7), which includes being spiritually renewed and transformed by God’s Holy Spirit. The Spirit was not yet given to empower, guide and live within them until the day of Christ’s resurrection when He “breathed on them and said, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit’ “ (John 20:22). The disciples’ failure was an act of weakness rather than wickedness. 
  3. When Peter and the disciples abandoned Christ, they did not have the advantage of those who are now aware of the moral implications of Christ’s sacrificial death on the cross (Romans 6). In addition, they did not have the spiritual power provided by Christ’s sacrifice or faith inspired by His resurrection from the dead.

KEEP WATCH FOR ONE HOUR / MARK 14:37

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Mark 14:37

And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?

KEEP WATCH FOR ONE HOUR / MARK 14:37

Peter and the disciples neglected to stay alert and pray, even though prayer was the only thing that could have kept them from failing during the difficult time ahead (Mark 14:50). Instead, they were spiritually weak and ended up scattering after Jesus was arrested (Mark 14:50-52). Peter even denied knowing Jesus (Mark 14:66-72). Failure in our Christian life is absolutely certain without prayer (Acts 10:9).

GETHSEMANE … PRAY / MARK 14:32

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Mark 14:32

 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.

GETHSEMANE … PRAY / MARK 14:32

Jesus’ action is an example of what His followers ought to do in times of great distress or grief.

  1. Turn to God in prayer (Mark 14:32, 35-36, 39).
  2. Seek the support of friends (Mark 14:33-34, 42).
  3. Acknowledge God as a loving Father who will always take care of us and do what is best (Mark 14:36).
  4. Trust God and commit to His plans and purposes (Mark 14:36). [See Matthew 26:37 on the ten stages of the suffering of Christ.]

BLOOD OF THE COVENANT / MARK 14:24

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Mark 14:24

 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.

BLOOD OF THE COVENANT / MARK 14:24

Christ’s blood was shed (He gave His life through death on the cross) to pay the penalty for our sins and provide the opportunity for forgiveness and spiritual salvation (a restored, renewed and eternal relationship with God). His death on the cross established a new covenant, or “life agreement,” between God and all who receive Christ as Savior and Lord – the Forgiver of their sins and Leader of their lives (Jeremiah 31:31-34). Those who repent (admit and turn from their own sinful way) and turn to God through faith in Christ will be forgiven, freed from the power of sin and Satan and given a new spiritual life. As a result, they become children of God, receive the gift of the Holy Spirit and have access to God at any time in order to receive mercy, strength and help (Matthew 26:28; Hebrews 4:16; 7:25).

HAD NOT BEEN BORN / MARK 14:21

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Mark 14:21

The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.

HAD NOT BEEN BORN / MARK 14:21

Jesus always evaluates and judges people’s lives from a spiritual and eternal viewpoint. He affirms that it would be better that a person never be born than to come into this world and then reject or fail to accept Jesus’ forgiveness and leadership over his or her life. The end result of such a life will be to spend eternity in hell (John 6:64).

THE GOSPEL / MARK 14:9

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Mark 14:9

Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.

THE GOSPEL / MARK 14:9

The word “gospel” is from the Old English gospel, meaning “good message” or “good news,” which is an accurate translation of the original Greek word evangelion – “the message’ of God. The good news is the true message that God has provided us the means and opportunity of forgiveness and a personal relationship with Him through the life, death and resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ (Luke 4:18-21; 7:22; John 3:16). Wherever this message is proclaimed in the power of the Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:4; Galatians 1:11),

  1. It comes with authority (Matthew 28:18-20).
  2. It provides power of spiritual salvation and reveals God’s righteousness (Romans 1:16-17). 
  3. It demands a response – repentance, turning from our own sinful way in order to follow God’s purposes (Mark 1:15; Matthew 3:2; Matthew 4:17).
  4. It works on people’s consciences to expose sin, show them what is right and remind them that they are accountable to God (John 16:8; Acts 24:25).
  5. It creates and inspires faith (Romans 10:17; Philippians 1:27).
  6. It brings spiritual salvation, freedom, life and the gift of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:33, 38-39; Romans 1:16; 1 Corinthians 15:22; 1 Peter 1:23).
  7. It rescues people from the power and control of sin and Satan (Matthew 12:28; Acts 26:18; Romans 6).
  8. It brings hope (Colossians 1:5, 23), peace (Ephesians 2:17; 6:15) and immortality (2 Timothy 1:10.
  9. It warns of judgment (Romans 2:16).
  10. It brings condemnation and eternal spiritual death (permanent separation from God) when refused (John 3:18).

A SPIRIT OF GRACE – THEY WILL MOURN FOR HIM / ZECHARIAH 12:10-14

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Zechariah 12:10-14

And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. 11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. 12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart; 13 The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart; 14 All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

A SPIRIT OF GRACE – THEY WILL MOURN FOR HIM / ZECHARIAH 12:10-14

A SPIRIT OF GRACE

Facing the threat of being completely destroyed and eliminated in the last days, individual Jews will turn to God for help and mercy. Many will come to realize that Jesus is the true Messiah and be overwhelmed by all He has done for them throughout history.

THEY WILL MOURN FOR HIM

With enemy forces closing in on them, the people of Israel will cry out to God for help. The Lord will respond by sending His Holy Spirit with special grace (undeserved favor and mercy). He will bring an answer to their desperate prayers and open their eyes to the fact that Jesus is indeed their promised Messiah – their Savior and Deliverer – who has been waiting to rescue them. As a result, they will entrust themselves to God. 

  1. The people then will recognize their guilt and responsibility in the events that led to Jesus’ death (including the Roman swordsman that pierced Jesus’ side, Psalms 22:16; Isaiah 53:5; John 19:34). 

As a result, they will be overwhelmed with grief and mourn bitterly over how they rejected Christ for so long. Each individual will feel the weight of sorrow and will have to repent personally for his or her sin and rejection of Jesus Christ (Romans 2:23; 6:23; Acts 16:31; 1 Peter 2:24).

ALL THE NATIONS … GATHERED AGAINST HER / ZECHARIAH 12:3-9

At the end of time, many nations will gather to battle against Jerusalem and Israel. The main goal will be to destroy God’s people. But God’s divine power will destroy Israel’s enemies, overthrowing all world powers at the battle called Armageddon (Revelation 16:16; Revelation 19:19).

IN THE EVENING … MIDNIGHT … AT DAWN / MARK 13:35

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Mark 13:35

Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

IN THE EVENING … MIDNIGHT … AT DAWN / MARK 13:35

This refers to a major pivotal event that pollutes what is holy or reserved for God’s worship and purposes (Daniel 9:25-27). 

  1. Christ’s statement may prophetically refer to two specific events: (a) the Roman invasion of Jerusalem when the temple was destroyed (A.D. 70) and (b) the placing of the antichrist’s image in Jerusalem just before Christ returns to defeat him and to judge the wicked (2 Thessalonians 2:2; 2 Thessalonians 2:3; Revelation 13:14-15; Revelation 19:11; Revelation 19:12). 
  2. This reference to multiple future events is sometimes called “prophetic foreshadowing,” a term used when two or more events are viewed and described as if they are one. Another example of this is when Christ’s first coming (to bring the message of spiritual salvation) and His second coming (to bring judgment) in Isaiah 11:1-4, 61:1-2 and Zechariah 9:9; Zechariah 9:10 are combined in a single prophecy which describes these comings as if they were a single event (Matthew 24:44). In a similar way, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Christ’s followers at Pentecost and “the great and dreadful day of the LORD” are combined and described as one event in Joel 2:28-31. Jesus’ description of Jerusalem’s destruction is symbolic of the great tribulation that occurs in the end times.
