Sit and Listen

 

I’m Duane Matz and welcome to Today’s Living Word.

 

De 33:3 Yes, He loves the people; All His saints are in Your hand; They sit down at Your feet; Everyone receives Your words.

 

First of all understand that saints are not some kind of super departed Christians. Saints are simply all those who have put their trust in Jesus Christ for their salvation!

 

God loves His saints…if you are a believer….that’s you!  They (you) are in His hand, and Jesus said in Joh 10:28 "And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

 

What comforting words!

 

And note a couple of earmarks of saints here. They sit  down at the feet of Jesus and receive His words! Does that remind you of anyone else in Scripture?

 

Mary and her sister Martha come to mind don’t they.

 

Martha who was preoccupied with busyness didn’t have the time to sit at the feet of Jesus….Mary made time to sit and receive and what did Jesus say about that?

Lu 10:41 "Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things.

 42 "But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her."

 

Beloved, busyness will always be with us, let us learn to prioritize and don’t neglect our time at the feet of Jesus…it is that good part that will not be wasted.
