Robyn's Bible Reading Strategies Applied
935. Jesus Predicts His Death 1. Today's Passage: Mark 8:31-38 Get to know your bible. It will become a good friend. Or find the passage NASB version on Bible Gateway here. You can search for other versions there as well. Versions even in foreign languages. Or, for your convenience I have typed the verses below from the New Living Testament (NLT). 2. Thank You for meeting me, LORD. I welcome you into this place. Please prepare my heart Jehovah. Thank you for insight. 3. 11th strategy. Reading... Simple Act of Meditation Simple acts of meditation are not difficult. If they were difficult God would not encourage every person to do them. They are sometimes uncomfortable. But they are always profitable. They bring us closer to the heart of God. We are to Hide His Words In Our Hearts.
31. Then Jesus began to tell them that the Son of Man must suffer many terrible things and be rejected by the elders, the leading priests, and the teachers of religious law. He would be killed, but three days later he would rise from the dead. 32. As he talked about this openly with his disciples, Peter took him aside and began to reprimand him for saying such things. 33. Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples, then reprimanded Peter. "Get away from me, Satan!" he said. "You are seeing things merely from a human point of view, not from God's." 34. Then calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, "If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross, and follow me. 35. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. 36. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? 37. Is anything worth more than your soul? 38. If anyone is ashamed of me and my message in these adulterous and sinful days, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in the glory of his Father with the holy angels." Mark 8:31-38 NLT 4. Thank you for coming today. Please leave your initials and a comment. Don't forget to check the box underneath your comment, so replies will be directed to you.
