At the Feet of Jesus

At the Feet of Jesus is a study that Nan Cunningham has written featuring Mary of Bethany.

Picture yourself at Jesus’ feet with the forgiveness of God making all things new in your life. Mary has much to teach us about adoration, devotion, and living our life at the feet of our Lord and Savior—Jesus Christ. She came to Jesus with a humble heart and made wise decisions that were based on her spiritual priorities. The result was praise from the Lord.

Of Mary, Jesus said, “And truly I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, that also which this woman has done shall be spoken of in memory of her” (Mar 14:9).

It is Nan’s desire and prayer that through this study, each of us would fall in love with Jesus all over again. Let your soul lavish in the freedom of forgiveness and be ready always to offer that forgiveness to others.

Spiritual Leadership outline: (1) Grounded in the gospel Tit 1:1-4, (2) Manifest in character Tit 1:5-9, (3) Manifest in ministry Tit 1:10-16. Faith-Hope-Love occurs again and again (1Th 1:3, 1Co 13:13, Col 1:4-5, Heb 6:10-19). Paul summarizes his conduct with the Thessalonians as a living example (1Th 1:2-6). They became examples (1Th 1:7-8). What makes a good leader? Learn how to follow. Who are you imitating? Elisha exemplifies leadership; as a rich heir; he is working with the servants on the 12th yolk of oxen — the worst job (1Ki 19:19-21). The prophet's mantel was sack-cloth; he ran after Elijah in eagerness and confidence. Elisha burned his yokes and threw a party. A man of god has to be humble enough to be lower than the lowest around you. Timothy was not to be a phony (1Ti 4:6-16). The man of God is: (1) Spiritually exercised; (2) example to others to follow; (3) devoted to the truth and living-out of it in life; (4) the gift he's been given becomes the mission of his life so as to be a blessing to others; (5) he judges himself day by day according to the word of God. The man of God is also: (1) a fugitive — "flee"; (2) a follower — "pursue" (3) fighter — "fight the good fight" (1Ti 6:11-12).
