And the Pharisees said to Him, (Jesus) “Look, why are they doing what is not lawful (plucking ears of grain) on the sabbath? And He said to them, “Have you never read what David did, when he was in need and was hungry, he and those who were with him; how he entered the house of God, when Abiathar was high priest to eat and also gave it to those who were with him?” And he said to them, “The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath; so the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath.” Mark 1:24 – 28
Lord once again You were showing the Pharisees why You were here. The were fanatical about rules and regulations. They missed the whole idea of what the sabbath was all about. They were so careful not to break any rules that they totally forgot the sabbath was to worship and praise You. Rules are good and serve a wonderful purpose but the bondage these Pharisees were in was not good.
Thank You Lord for our freedom today to praise and worship You ALL the time. I’m very grateful You are always there to hear and answer me. Oh how I thank You.
Thank You Lord. Thank You.
