A description of King David’s administration. And a foreshadowing of Christ’s kingship. Also, an encouragement to all those who are called to lead God’s people. Care for them. From pure motives. Lead with skill. Be a shepherd. Like Jesus.

The first-century disciples watched for Christ’s 2nd coming with expectation because they had seen Him return from the tomb. On this Resurrection Sunday let us be reminded that He is risen and that He is coming again! Are you ready?
On this 7th day of Passion Week, we remember that Christ rested in the tomb, His work on the cross finished. Tomorrow, we remember that He conquered death and the grave. Yet, we still worry about lunch. Stop worrying. Seek Him with first priority. Rest in Jesus.
On this Good Friday we remember that Jesus did not fear man more than God. He was crucified by man, but resurrected by God. Whom do you fear?
As Jonah was in the belly of the fish for 3 days, so Jesus would be in the tomb before rising again. Jesus fulfilled every prophecy and prediction concerning His life, death and resurrection. In 3 days we will celebrate this historic truth!
The currency of the Kingdom is asking. You have not because you ask not. So hear the words of Jesus. Ask.
After the 72 returned rejoicing from their witnessing assignment, Jesus was filled with joy from the Spirit. Two thoughts: 1) You’ve never known true joy until you’ve felt this joy of the Holy Spirit. 2) If you want to share this joy with Jesus, answer the call to be a witness for Him.
Jesus sent 36 teams of two out to prepare all the little towns in Israel for a visit from the Messiah. He told them what to take, where to stay, and what to say. Jesus is still sending out disciples. Have you heard your call yet?
Do you depend on your own strength? No matter how many vitamins or supplements you take, your health will wane. But God’s strength is available to you forever. Draw on Him. Depend on Him. God never fails.
Are you ashamed to witness? It isn’t considered polite to talk about Jesus and the Gospel. In a day when “R” rated language is everywhere, saying “Jesus” is only acceptable as a curse word. It’s “intolerant” to speak of Him otherwise. I wonder, will Jesus be ashamed of you on that Day?
