Use the Key of Knowledge
Read Luke 10 – 11

Luke 11:52 “Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”

AS PEOPLE called to serve God, I pray we will never hinder anyone from entering the Kingdom. Hindering means we are too ready to condemn. Hindering is not listening to what people say. Hindering is moving forward with our own agenda, not God’s. Hindering is forcing people to look at God’s condemnation and not God’s grace. Hindering is removing hope from people’s lives. Hindering is not listening to God to do what he tells us to do.
Yes, we must be prepared to always give the gospel of Jesus Christ. Give it then, in love, in your actions, in your response to people, in your help to those in need, in your voice of compassion and in your love for Jesus.
Hold the Gospel, the key of knowledge, in your heart, mind and soul. Then be ready to give this knowledge to unhinder, to release and free people into the Gospel forever.


Pause and Consider: how freely Jesus has given to you.
