he will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready for the Lord a people prepared. Luke 1:17 (ESV)

Luke 1
The mission of John the Baptist was to prepare the people for Jesus. At least two of John's disciples, Andrew and his brother Simon Peter, would eventually become disciples of Christ. John prepared the foundation of their spiritual life--on this Jesus built. For what ministry is God preparing you for? Your faith is stronger, your worship sweeter, your ministry toolbox bigger, your skills refined. Some of us are going to Nicaragua this summer as we seek to carry out the ministry that we have been prepared for. Perhaps God has prepared you for this too? SWC
