Day 7: Saturday, December 3rd, 2022

December 3, 2022 by West Park Baptist Church Leave a Comment

Family devotions and personal worship are great spiritual disciplines to embrace in this Advent season and continue year-round.

  1. Gather with those in your home to set apart a daily time together (15 minutes or more is fine…right after a meal is ideal).
  2. Have someone read the passage for that day.
  3. Discuss what it means in light of Jesus. What does it say about Him or His coming?
  4. Pray in response to the passage. Thank God for fulfilled prophecies, answered prayers, renewed hopes, etc. Ask the Holy Spirit to keep your hearts focused on His Word.
  5. Sing a hymn or carol of the season.

Week 1 – The Prophets (Hope)

Mark 1:1-4

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way, the voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight,’” John appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 

Matthew 1:21-23

She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us).

Suggested hymns: Come Thou Long Expected Jesus, Silent Night, The First Noel
