We wrestle with the shock of Jesus asking John to baptize him and what John’s hesitation reveals about our fear of being “unqualified.” We trace Matthew 3:13-17 verse by verse and land on a simple challenge: surrender our will, act with intention, and speak the name of Jesus out loud. 

• Jesus comes to the Jordan alone and on purpose 
• John’s refusal as a mirror of our insecurity 
• why “I’m not qualified” keeps us quiet about the gospel 
• identity in Christ as children, heirs, redeemed, royal priesthood 
• “fulfill all righteousness” as obedience beyond bare minimum 
• church as a people who serve rather than consume 
• the heavens opening as a glimpse of spiritual reality 
• the Father’s voice as a declaration to all creation 
• choice, surrender, and “not my will but your will” 

Tell one person about Jesus this week about who Jesus is and what Jesus has done in your life. And then follow it up with prayer. Literally go, hey, I’m gonna pray with you. What can I pray with you for?
