Matthew 13:2
In our day, it is the audience that is made comfortable while the speaker stands. Jesus was doing the work of sharing the Truth. His hearers did not mind if he sat while they stood. Imagine what would happen today if people were asked to listen to a man sitting down speak while they stood. Also, remember, he had no public address system. There was no amplification for his voice. His words had to be listened to closely. Would people today even try to hear a speaker like that?
Bible Reading: Numbers 30:1-31:54
Scripture Memory: 1 John 2:27 “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.”
Prayer: Heavenly Father, You are so powerful! You made the fish in the sea and the stars in the sky. And yet, You have time to consider even the smallest sparrow. You are so amazing! If I could spend my whole life just exploring Your creation, I would still find myself unable to describe the fullness of Your majesty as it is reflected in Your works. You are worthy of all praise! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
Prayer Requests: Pray for a woman who is not getting around well.
