Come Meet Jesus in the Wilderness
Mark 1:1-13
There is no sanitized hospital delivery room nor even a mention of a dirty stable, just the wilderness.
Mark has a point to make as he begins his gospel narrative – The Servant of God has come. He is
on a mission to accomplish what those who had gone before Him could not … not Adam in the
garden, not Moses on the mountain, nor even Israel in the wilderness. The beginning of the story is
all about the beginning of victory over Satan, joy in the Father, and new life in the Spirit. It starts
with a bang, so buckle up.
Come and see the 3 scenes of Jesus’ willing walk into the wilderness for us …
1. The Call of the Wilderness [1:1-8]
The Proclaimed One in the Wilderness
John the Baptizer in the Wilderness
The Mightier One to come in the Wilderness
(MULTILINE)
2. Entering the Wilderness [1:9-11]
Baptized

3. Victory in the Wilderness [1:12-13]
A Spirit-Driven Journey
A Victory Begun not Won

For Spiritual Conversation: How should we think about our failures considering the success of Jesus?
Where specifically is it hard for you to think that way?
