Walking In Newness Of Life

Week Two

Putting God First In Worship

Day Eight

[Remember to always begin your Bible study with prayer.]

1. Begin today by reading Luke 14:15-24 (the parable of the great supper). Make a list of the excuses that were offered by those who were invited to the supper. Write down excuses that people offer today that are similar to these in the parable:

2. What will happen to those who offer such excuses?

3. Now read Luke 14:25-33. Counting the cost of discipeship is of key importance in these verses. (To understand verse 26 better, read Matthew 10:37.) According to these verses, what is the cost of being a disciple of Christ?

4. The word "forsake" in verse 33 means primarily to "set apart from"; to renounce, forsake (Vine's Dictionary Of New Testament Words). What does this mean to you in your life?

**In your prayers today, you could ask God to help you put Him first and all the other things of the world and your own interests second. Read Matthew 6:33.
