“Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because for this purpose I have come forth,” Jesus remarked (Mark
1:38). Did you get that? Jesus was faced with a powerful dilemma. Stay in the place where He was—Peter’s home—and continue
fruitful ministry there. Or, leave that place for new, untested ministry territories.

Few Christians today would give up a fertile ministry moment for an unknown one. Yet, Jesus did exactly that with no hesitation. How did He make the right decision? God the Father had revealed the plans for that day to Jesus during His private devotional time. The Father affirmed Jesus’ purpose as He prayed and waited in His presence.

Friends, when we fail to seek God early in worship and prayer, we miss God’s plans for our day and His affirmation of our purpose. Let us pray for the commitment to rise early and spend time with God.
