Reading from Jan.10, 2009
Gen.24-25; Luke 10

TOPIC: Prayer


SCRIPTURE: "Pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest, and ask him to send out MORE WORKERS for his fields." (Luke 10:2)

OBSERVATION: 'As we see here there were far more than 12 people that had been following Jesus. Here Jesus designated a group of 72 to prepare a number of towns for Jesus' later visit. These disciples were not unique in their qualifications. They were not better educated, more capable, or of higher status than other followers of Jesus. What prepared them for this mission was that they had been equipped with Jesus' power and their vision to reach all the people. It is important to dedicate our skills to God's kingdom, but we must also be equipped with his power and have a clear vision of what he wants us to do.

Jesus was sending 36 teams of two to reach the multitudes. These teams were not to try to do the job without help; rather,
they
were to ask God for more workers. Some people as soon as they understand the Good News, want to go to work immediately contacting unsaved people. This story seems to suggests a different approach. Begin by mobilizing people to pray. And before praying for unsaved people, pray that other concerned disciples will join you in reaching out to them." [Life Application Study Bible]

APPLICATION: There is no unemployment in the Kingdom of God.
God has work enough for everyone.
