When Jesus arrived at the house of Jairus, he did not let anyone go in with him except Peter, John and James, and the child’s father and mother. Luke 8: 51
Jesus led me to a question after reading Luke 8 today: “Why had Jesus brought only Peter, John and James and not the others into the house of Jairus? Why could not the other nine apostles get in? The reasons may be:
1. Jesus used most of the time to train only those three apostles.
2. Other nine apostles were not ready to witness that miracle and only those who were ready could receive.
So, what I have received is:
1. Who will be my Peter, John and James that I will spend most of the time with as my apprentices?
2. Don’t press on those who are not ready to receive the things they are not ready to receive.
Dear Lord Jesus,
Help me to be able to use my time wisely to train apprentices in your way. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
