011: Jesus Reveals He Is Messiah in Nazareth

Mary’s Well in Nazareth, Israel.

It’s in this once humble town of Nazareth where Jesus spent most of His life! For 30 years, he lived as “God Incognito.”

Here, Jesus spent almost 90% of his earthly life, walking in holiness and humility. Here, Jesus learned the demanding but highly-skilled trade of a tekton (Greek) alongside His father, Joseph.

Jesus’ quiet life suddenly changed when He stood up in the synagogue and proclaimed Himself as the Messiah.

Today, our group is standing in the courtyard of St Gabriel Greek Orthodox Church, close to Mary’s Well.  Here, Hans shares a word of hope and challenge to each of us to be open to God’s unexpected ways of answering our prayers.

Are we ready to hear?

    • Donna – So glad you enjoyed the podcast as well as the photos. It’s wonderful to see this sweep around the world.

  1. Wow, this is a good word reminding me to evaluate how firm is my believing that God will actually answer the deep prayers of my heart – such as my prayers for Revival! I am feeling great anticipation for what God has in store for 2018 but Hans’ word today causes me to connect and ground my anticipation (which can often feel like something drifting in the air) to my prayers and God’s answers to them. This word helps me to stand in a different posture – anticipating God answering my prayers and having the eyes of my heart open so that I don’t refuse His answer based on my preconceived ideas of what they would look like or lack of belief that I would ever see the answer. Thank you so much Hans. I feel refreshed. You are a very anointed man of God and a blessing to all who hear your teaching.
