Reading God’s Word: Luke 3:21-4:13; Psalm 49:12-20

Memorizing God’s Word: Luke 4:18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free”

Meditating on God’s Word: Luke 4:1 “Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness”

Praying God’s Word “Father, these two simple phrases, here at the beginning of Jesus’ ministry, are monumental in their significance for each of us as we follow Jesus: he was “full of the Spirit” and “led by the Spirit.” That’s the secret! Fill each of us with your Spirit today! Lead us by your Spirit. May we live today and every day full of the Spirit and led by the Spirit. Amen.”
