John 3:22

Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 3:22 after this Jesus and his disciples went into the Judean Countryside and he remained there with them and was baptizing 

Jesus and his disciples left, the Metropolis of Jerusalem where the hostility was already beginning to mount. Especially considering his cleansing of the Temple.

There could be no greater honour paid for John the Baptist then for Jesus The savior of mankind, the baptizer in the Holy Spirit to practice the same rite as his forerunner, John the Baptist. Luke 3:1 to 22. We see people came to John the Baptist and heard his preaching and were convicted of their sin and repented, and those who were repented, he baptized them.

Luke 3, 16. We see John The Baptist said, as for me, I baptize you with water but one is coming, who is mightier than I, He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. Today when a person is born again and his life is changed, we baptize them to show to the world that this person being baptized is a changed person.

He has died to his own life and he is buried in baptism and is risen to a new life. That's what Romans 6:4 says, We were buried, therefore, with him by baptism into death in order that just as Christ was rised from the dead by the glory of the father we too might walk in the newness of life.

Jesus said to his disciples in Matthew 28:19. Go therefore and make disciples of all Nations, baptizing them in the name of the father, and of the son and the Holy spirit. Yes, a person who have been born again who have a changed life they need to take baptism.

It is The Obedience to the word of God to go and be baptized. Have you been baptized in water after being born again? It not, this is the day you can decide and commit yourself for the baptism.

Prayer 

 Let us pray Heavenly Father. I thank you for this day o God.

Thank you for speaking to us about baptism. Lord, it's so clear in the Bible that a person has to believe and get baptized help us to take a dissision to be baptized. If we are not been baptized help us today to take a decision to get baptized I commit this day to your hands in Jesus name.

I pray in Jesus name. Amen. God bless you.

John 4:1,2

Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 4th chapter and verses one and two. We are studying from the fourth chapter of John from today. Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees have heard that Jesus was baptizing more disciples than John, although Jesus himself did not baptize but only his disciples. In this verse we again see about baptism Jesus and his disciples along with John was baptizing in the same place. It is not written whether Jesus and his disciples followed the baptism of John. We do not know. The difference between John's baptism and the Christian baptism is given clearly in the Bible. In Acts 19:3,4, we read " 'Unto what where you baptized?' And they said 'unto John's baptism' . Then Paul said, 'John verily, baptized with the baptism of repentance saying unto the people they that they should believe on Jesus Christ who is to come after him' ". John was preparing a people for Jesus coming. And they repented of...

Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 4 5. As he came to the town of Samaria. Called psychar near the field that Jacob had given to his son, Joseph. Hallelujah. In this verse, we see that John the author of this book, had an accurate knowledge of the land of Israel, And also he knew the history of that land. In Genesis 33 19. We see that when Jacob came back to the land of Israel from the house of Leban his father in law, he brought This place For a hundred pieces of silver. It was called the city of Sheikhim.  Jacob says he had given Joseph one portion above his brother. In Genesis 50:25. Then Joseph took an oath from the children of Israel saying, God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here. We see the hope and the confidence Joseph had that Israel People will go back to their land which happened through the hand of Moses. Joseph knew the promise that God had made to Abraham to Isaac and to his father, Jacob, Concerning the land of Canon...
