Follow Me

If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me - Mark 8:34.

                We will never walk in darkness but have the light of life as we follow God. I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life - John 8:12. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me - John 10:27. Christ suffered for us and left us an example so that we might follow His steps. Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps - 1 Peter 2:21. 

 

                 Simon and Andrew immediately left their nets and followed Jesus. And as He walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. Then Jesus said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” They immediately left their nets and followed Him - Mark 1:16-18. James and John who were in their boat mending the nets, left their father Zebedee and the boat immediately and followed Jesus. Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him - Matthew 4:21,22.

                Let us leave everything behind and follow Jesus. Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men - Matthew 4:19. Peter answered him, “We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?”. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life - Matthew 19:27, 29.                                                            

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Let us leave everything behind and follow You. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
