Mark 14:6-7
6 "Leave her alone," said Jesus. "Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. 7 The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me.
Is Jesus in need? Jesus is not in need!
Surprise!!! Yes
Not pouring the perfume will not make Jesus smell when he died because he did not decay.
The woman deliberately poured the perfume on Jesus because she had a need that she could not explain to anyone. She was depressed in SIN. Luke 7:44-50.
We are the ones in need!
Whether you do it or not the purpose of God will be done.
Luke 19:40 “ And he answered and said to them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
When you do something for Jesus it is a way of drawing the attention of Heaven to your need.

Any reward?

• God takes you as a friend and Partner.
• You will become God’s project.
• You will become the apple of his eyes.
• You will enjoy God’s blessing (the supernatural will be working for you).
Start from somewhere
• Be active in Prayer. Luke18:1
• Be active in Bible study. IITimothy 2:15
• Be active in witnessing to others. Mathew 28:18-19. Bring someone to church, Be an Andrew!
• Give to the need of the church. No matter how little; the boy with five loaves and two fishes John 6:8-9.
• Give food to the hungry, cloth to the naked, visit the sick and the imprisoned, care for the fatherless and widow. Mathew 25: 34-36.
• Commit yourself to the service of Christ. Be a worker! Imagine there were no 12 Disciples what would have happened to the ministry of Christ. The 500 are general members who will disappear when the going becomes tough.1 Corinthians 15:16.
• Identify with Jesus. Mark 15:43 “Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus”
• Sacrifice for Jesus. Sacrifice for Jesus always receives urgent attention from Heaven.
What is your decision?
Are you ready to do something for Jesus?
• Nobody is too dirty for Jesus to use.
• Nobody is too evil for Jesus to use.
• Nobody is too poor for Jesus to use.
• Nobody is too incapacitated for Jesus to use.
• Nobody is too illiterate for Jesus to use.
• Nobody is too small for Jesus to use.
• Nobody is too old for Jesus to use.
