START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) Mark 3:14
And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,
THAT THEY MIGHT BE WITH HIM / MARK 3:14
1. The primary call of a disciple (a disciplined learner and devoted follower of Christ) is to “be with” Jesus – to develop a close personal relationship with Him. Serving God’s purposes involves instruction and practice of various ministries, but these things must flow out of time spent with Jesus. Anyone who desires to serve Christ must first practice His presence (John 15:26-27; Acts 4:13).
2. Out of a deep relationship with Christ comes the power and sensitivity to effectively serve and minister for Him. After having been with Him, Jesus sent His disciples out to preach His message.
3. That message is to be proven with power (accompanied by signs of healings and authority over demons). Such power comes from being with Jesus and knowing Him. Our activity for God must come after our intimacy, or spiritual closeness, with God.
