Today's reading we will cover Luke Chapters 11:53-12:48. Today we will be warned against several things: being hypocritical by telling people they should be doing things but not doing those things ourselves, telling people that we do not know Jesus (and then Jesus will tell the angels in heaven that He does not know US), focusing on accumulating material possessions, and not being ready for Jesus' return, which will occur at a time that we do not know. In today's reading Jesus tells us that it is good to be found doing the work we are supposed to be doing when He returns, and that those who know what to do but don't do it will be in trouble for it. Even those people who don't know what He expects will be in trouble for not obeying, but the consequence will not be as bad.
For our daily application today, it is important that we be doing the good works that God has prepared for us to do so that when He returns He will find us busy in our work. Jesus will teach us how to "become fishers of men." He will teach us to be who God created us to be so that the work God has given us is a joy for us to do, rather than just chores to dread. It is important that we are obeying Jesus and telling others about Him. We need to be sure that we are using what God gives us for the work He has prepared for us to do. If God gives us things it is not so we can store things up and be wealthy with material things or money. It is so we can share these things with others. The more God gives us the more we have to give away!
