“And when it was day, he departed and went into a desolate place. And the people sought him and came to him, and would have kept him from leaving them, but he said to them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well; for I was sent for this purpose.”’ Luke 4:42-43
1. Jesus lived in dependence on the Father
“And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed.” Mark 1:35
“‘And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me.’” John 14:24b
“‘…the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing.’” John 5:19b

I. PRAYER IS THE WORK
“Prayerlessness is our declaration of independence from God.” Daniel Henderson
“‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations.’” Mark 11:17b
“God rules the world and His church through the prayers of His people. That God should have made the extension of His kingdom to such a large extent dependent on the faithfulness of His people in prayer is a stupendous mystery and yet an absolute certainty. God calls for intercessors: in His grace He has made His work dependent on them. He waits for them.” Andrew Murray
II. YOUR PASSION IS THE KINGDOM
III. YOUR PURPOSE IS THE GLORY OF THE FATHER
“Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory…” Psalm 115:1a
