Scripture: So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.” Acts 6:2-4 (NIV) Application: Our early Christian Church grew so rapidly in part because of supernatural events, but also due to some very simple and practical steps that were taken: People volunteered to help the leaders. Our pastors should be allowed more time to study and prepare Biblical instruction for their congregations. When we devote ourselves to humble service, we please God. Prayer: Help us apply our skills toward supporting our pastors in Ways that please You, Jesus. Amen. Comments are closed.
