Mark 12

Scripture: Mark chapter 12

Observation: The scribes, Pharisees and Sadducees all tried to trick Jesus into saying something that could get Him arrested. In the end Jesus' answers left them speechless, because He answered wisely from the Scriptures.

Application: To defend our faith, it's important, imperative really, to know what Scripture says. Otherwise we can be easily fooled into false doctrine and false beliefs, because we don't know what the Bible teaches.

Prayer: Father, Your Word is a lamp unto my feet. Yet the lamp does me no good if it's always shut. Keep me in Your Word; give me knowledge and wisdom to understand and apply Your teachings, and to help others understand it also. Let Your Word be my guide, my manual for living. In Jesus' name, Amen.
