JOHN THE BAPTIST – LESSON 4

HIS PUBLIC MINISTRY – PART 2

 

As we continue with John’s ministry, let us set the political landscape. Rome was in control of all the “known world” from Europe, northern Africa, and all the way to India. Although in tight control, they were relatively benevolent rulers during the time of John and Jesus. (That changed just a few short years later.) They appointed governors or “kings” who had cultural or religious commonalities with the people being governed. These “kings” or rulers answered to an appointed Roman Curator (such as Pilate) whose main purpose was to keep the peace (pax Romana).

 

The king in Galilee (Jesus’ home in northern Israel) was Herod Antipas (Herod II), son of Herod the Great who had sought to kill infant Jesus. The ruler in Ituraea (NE of Israel) was Philip, another son of Herod the Great and half-brother to Herod Antipas. Remember this.

 

John was preaching a harsh message about sin, in order to stir people to repentance. (Luke 3:3-20.) He even called them vipers (snakes) in verse 8 and condemned their works in verses 8 and 9 under the Mosaic law. The hated Publicans (tax collectors) came to him (vs. 12) as did the soldiers (likely the Temple guards) asking John what they should do.

 

John also regularly preached of a Messiah coming who would be far greater than himself. This man would baptize them with the Holy Spirit from God and would be in their spirit like an unquenchable fire.

 

After close to a year of this kind of preaching, the prophesied man John spoke of showed up as we shall see tomorrow.

FRUITFULNESS

 

If you ever have planted seeds, your goal is to see them bear fruit. It takes patience and work to bring them to being fruitful. Not every seed will sprout, but those that do sprout must be watered and nourished until they mature.

 

I have always found it amazing how a little dirt over a seed brings forth new life. Yet, the process starts with dying. The seed may be beautiful, but it must die to reproduce. Its protective shell that was once hard breaks open for the sprout to come out.

 

Jesus spoke of seed that dies as he compared what would happen to him with a seed. In John 12:24 he said, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, except a corn (kernel or seed) of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.”

 

Jesus was that seed. He was planted through death, but his death brought forth life. He not only rose from the dead, but through his shedding of blood we too receive him like seed and our spirits come alive to Christ through salvation. You could say that Jesus is very fruitful.

 

But that is not the end of the story. Jesus wants us to bear fruit. He wants us to mature to the point that we have much fruit in our lives. When he looked at the fig tree without fruit, he cursed it. Every plant that grows is expected to bring forth fruit, but this fig tree was barren. 

 

Jesus is looking for fruit in our lives. If we aren’t bearing fruit, he will “cut us back” for the purpose of new growth that will bring forth fruit.

 

We had a hard unexpected freeze in January and many trees and plants in the community I live nt were victims to it. Some died totally, but there are many that have been “cut back” so that new growth can come. Cutting back gives that plant or tree a “second chance.” Without it the tree would have suckers on it that would eventually cause the tree or plant to be unfruitful.

 

We must examine areas in our lives that are not bearing fruit for the kingdom and make the choice to cut them off so we can be more fruitful. It is never without pain when this takes place my friends, but it is absolutely necessary if we are to be fruitful.

 

What are some things that need to be cut away? How about anger? What about bitterness? What about those “hidden sins”? The list could go on and on. We either examine our hearts and deal with these things or the Lord will choose a way that will be much more painful.

 

He does not do this to hurt us. He does this to help us. Out of his love for each of us he chooses the cutting back. If we yield to it, we will be more fruitful.

PROPHETIC WORD

AS GIVEN TO HELEN SANDERS 

 

Do you smell the flowers my child? Their fragrance brings comfort to those that time to smell them. Oh, that my children would set aside time for the simple things that I send their way. The sound of a bird, the rush of the water, the sunset, the dawn, and the smell of the flowers. You have been so busy my children that you have not seen all the beauty that I daily send your way to bring you peace and comfort in the midst of the chaos. I had to take time away from all the chaos too and find myself alone with my father. There in his presence I received my daily assignment and went forth in the power of the Spirit. My fleshly body had to spend this time alone to be able to do what I had to do. You also must take time to sit at Father’s feet and breathe in all the goodness that he has set before you. There is a table there with fresh manna that he will bring you daily. That is the place of comfort and solitude that activates the plan for you to follow. That is the place where you leave refreshed and ready to battle in the spirit. You must not neglect the little things that we send to bring you comfort for they will surely lift you up into our presence. Do not focus on the chaos my children for invariably it will take you off the track that we have laid before you. We will show you how to go forth in the time spent alone with me. Do you remember when I was in the crowd, and they tried to take me? They could not take me because I slipped away by the Spirit. In the days that come there must be a slipping away that will come to you also. Do not fear, for I will show you the way of escape. I will lead you. Lean on me my children for my yoke is easy and my burden light. Yes, I am the stronger one and will carry your weight when it is too heavy for you to bear. I will carry you through these times, but the times will be much lighter when you spend time in Father’s presence. He loves you and I love you too my children. Yet even I had to go to his presence daily to be refreshed. So, take time to enjoy the little things I send your way and let them take you into Father’s presence.
