AND HE (HEROD) TRIED TO SEE HIM"

*Anchor Text:  Luke 9:9(NIV)*

*Message*

We might guess that Herod wanted to see Jesus perform some miracles or engage in some philosophical discussion. However, by the time Herod did get to see Jesus, at his trial, there was no performance and no discussion. In the end Herod resorted to mockery to satisfy his desires.

It can often be the same today. People want a performance or something spectacular and when this doesn't happen they resort to making fun of Christ and his followers. We need to be alert to the dangers of this sort of person.

There are those who truly want to know Jesus as Saviour and Lord and it is these people that we need to identify and spend time with. Let's ask the Holy Spirit to lead us to such people and be ready to give them our time.

*HYMN*

What a friend we have in Jesus,

All our sins and grief to bear!

What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit,

O what needless pain we bear,

All because we do not carry

Everything to God in prayer

*PRAYER POINTS*

Intimidation of the wicked, break!

O Lord, manifest Your raw power in my life!

*It is well, Jesus Reigns.*
