FOCUS

Luke 10:16, MSG: 16 “The one who listens to you, listens to me. The one who rejects you, rejects me. And rejecting me is the same as rejecting God, who sent me.”

ADORATION

Luke 10:17-20, MSG: 17 The seventy came back triumphant. “Master, even the demons danced to your tune!” 18 Jesus said, “I know. I saw Satan fall, a bolt of lightning out of the sky. 19 See what I’ve given you? Safe passage as you walk on snakes and scorpions, and protection from every assault of the Enemy. No one can put a hand on you. 20 All the same, the great triumph is not in your authority over evil, but in God’s authority over you and presence with you. Not what you do for God but what God does for you — that’s the agenda for rejoicing.”

CONFESSION

Luke 10:1-3, 5-6, MSG: 1 Later the Master selected seventy and sent them ahead of him in pairs to every town and place where he intended to go. 2 He gave them this charge: “What a huge harvest! And how few the harvest hands. So on your knees; ask the God of the Harvest to send harvest hands. 3 “On your way! But be careful — this is hazardous work. You’re like lambs in a wolf pack. 5 “When you enter a home, greet the family, ‘Peace.’ 6 If your greeting is received, then it’s a good place to stay. But if it’s not received, take it back and get out. Don’t impose yourself.

THANKSGIVING

Luke 10:21-22, MSG: 21 At that, Jesus rejoiced, exuberant in the Holy Spirit. “I thank you, Father, Master of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the know-it-alls and showed them to these innocent newcomers. Yes, Father, it pleased you to do it this way. 22 “I’ve been given it all by my Father! Only the Father knows who the Son is and only the Son knows who the Father is. The Son can introduce the Father to anyone he wants to.”

SUPPLICATION

Luke 10:23-24, MSG: 23 He then turned in a private aside to his disciples. “Fortunate the eyes that see what you’re seeing! 24 There are plenty of prophets and kings who would have given their right arm to see what you are seeing but never got so much as a glimpse, to hear what you are hearing but never got so much as a whisper.”
