Luke 10-11 (By Rev. Deacon Margaret Friesen)

9/29/2021

 
OBSERVATION
  • Chapter 10 – Seventy-two disciples were sent out as Christian missionaries to preach, to bless and to heal. They were given their task and guidelines for dress and behaviour
  • They were advised to rely on Christ, the Holy Spirit, for everything – the words to speak, whether to stay in someone’s town or home, which people to heal of demonic influence, even their own physical well-being in terms of what to eat or help in walking (v.3-10).
  • Later on, we read some updates on Jesus’ instruction to missionaries (Luke 22)
  • Many people who were on the fringes were called by Jesus such as the Samaritan who was commended for being a good neighbour because he stopped to care for an injured stranger.
  • Two teachings about living like Christ – to pray and to listen to the Lord—not to be distracted by ‘things to do’.
  • Jesus taught about persistence in prayer. He admonished them to read the signs of the times. He severely rebuked the religious leaders for pretending to be more virtuous than they actually were.
 
INTERPRETATION
  • Do speak the Gospel to all who will accept your teaching.
  • Do heal the sick and cast out the demons.
  • Wait for my instruction. Wait for my Holy Spirit
  • Look with Jesus’ eyes so you will recognize your neighbours and do good to them.
  • Listen to Jesus’ praises to his Father God (10:21-23) and learn to sing those praises to God as well.
  • Do ask God our Father for whatever you/we need.
  • Do not teach one thing and then do the opposite; be genuine, be truthful and transparent.
 
QUESTION
Do I model my life after Jesus in his practice of prayer and praise to God our Father?
 
PRAYER
Dear Lord Jesus, we are so thankful you came to our world to show us what God the Father is like. Remind us to always choose the true and right path to follow you. Fill us with your Holy Spirit so that we might do the good tasks you’ve given us to do.
 
SONG.
Lead on Lord – Bruce Moore, Jennifer Manhas
