*TOPIC: THE URGENT JOB VACANCY IN THE FATHER’S BUSINESS*
*TEXT: Luke 2:48-50*
*INTRODUCTION*
Jesus was about twelve years old, and as a twelve-year-old child, he ought not to be without being cared for because, at twelve, most children are inquisitive. His mother had not known the value of what was deposited into her care, so there was a tendency that they had to take care of him and watch over him more than the way they had been taking care of him. In the same way, you can be so cared for to the extent that you won't be allowed to serve the Lord as you ought to, and when carnality overwhelms a man, he sees the presence of God as a burden.
Jesus’ reference to this Bible study as the “Father’s business” means that it is what brings profits to God because every business is meant to bring profit to the owner.“ Labourers are few” means there is a job vacancy in the Father’s business.The job vacancy is for all but not for the lazy ones, not for the ones without passion, not for the ones without vision, and it's not for negligence.
Luke 10:1-18: Now the Lord is giving us an assignment as a church but not as lazy ones. The assignment requires the diligent ones, visionary ones, and the willing ones. Now the question you need to ask yourself is: Are you one of the visionary ones, diligent ones, and are you passionate about the kingdom?God needs your availability because it's when you release yourself for the work that He will endow you to do it.
Retreat is coming. Many of us know what we ought to do; we don't do it but will rather castigate. The harvest truly is plentiful, so you are supposed to fill up the vacant position.
