Devotional: Luke 6:12-19

Today’s passage: Luke 6:12-19

Helpful thoughts:

  • There was no try-out for becoming a disciple/apostle.  They were chosen.  (John 15:16)
    • The Apostles were specifically chosen for a specific task of representation and communication.  To proclaim Jesus.
  • Before choosing the twelve, Jesus prayed all night long.
  • Jesus compassionately and powerfully gave this crowd a taste of Heaven.
    • All demons were expelled.
    • There was no more sickness.
    • Truth was proclaimed.

Questions to consider:

  1. In what way is your choosing similar in nature to the choosing of the Apostles?  (Not that you are an apostle…but what does God choosing you result in?)  Check out Ephesians 2:7.
  2. How does drawing near to God and asking Him for wisdom help us in making biblical, godly decisions?
  3. In what ways does the church gathered give us a taste of Heaven?  In what ways can every member contribute to this function of our heavenly kingdom embassy?
