Ascend Advent 2022 Day 10: Give People the Knowledge of Salvation
John the Baptist had a special mission. He was to go ahead of Jesus and prepare for His earthly mission of saving the world. It was foretold in the Old Testament (Isaiah 40:3), and looked forward to in the song his father sang over him as a baby. Let’s just stop for a moment and appreciate that image of a father singing over his child, speaking faith into his life about what he would grow up to do. Isn’t that wonderful? And it’s just what God does for us – singing over us with delight and belief (Zephaniah 3:17).
Today's Scripture
"you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for Him, to give His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins". Luke 1:76-77
Key takeaway for the day:
"you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for Him, to give His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins". Luke 1:76-77
Key takeaway for the day:
We can’t make people believe, but we can make it as easy as possible to find out about Jesus. Don’t keep the knowledge of salvation to yourself this Advent.
