Click here to view listing below for Luk 2:9

BLESSING from the Lord runs in the channel of obedience to Him, as we are found in the path of duty.

  1. Revelation. The angels appeared to the shepherds, and announced the Saviour’s birth, as they were watching their flocks (Luke 2:8-10).
  2. Manifestation. The angel of Jehovah manifested Himself to Moses as he kept the flock over which he was shepherd (Ex. 3:1-3).
  3. Commission. The Lord took David from the sheep-fold to be king over Israel, for as he had been faithful in the former position, so he would be in the latter (Ps. 78:70).
  4. Qualification. It was while Gideon was threshing the corn that the Lord made known to him that He intended him to be the deliverer of Israel (Judges 6:11).
  5. Substitution. Elisha was called from the plough to be the companion and successor to Elijah (1 Kings 19:19).
  6. Identification. It was while Matthew was at the receipt of custom (Matt. 9:9), and the disciples were following their occupation as fishermen, that the Lord called them to be His disciples and witnesses (Matt. 4:18).
  7. Satisfaction. The woman of Samaria little thought when she came to draw water from Jacob’s well that she would there receive a drink which would satisfy her heart (John 4:14).
