“Didn’t Our Hearts Burn Within Us

As He Talked With Us

On The Road And Explained The Scriptures To Us?”

Scripture

Luke 24 

²⁸ By this time they were nearing Emmaus and the end of their journey. Jesus acted as if he were going on, ²⁹ but they begged him, “Stay the night with us, since it is getting late.” So he went home with them. ³⁰ As they sat down to eat, he took the bread and blessed it. Then he broke it and gave it to them. ³¹ Suddenly, their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And at that moment he disappeared!

³² They said to each other, “Didn’t our hearts burn within us as he talked with us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?”
 

Observation

I have been involved in Bible studies where I have sensed a little bit of what these two disciples experienced. God’s Word is powerful and living! It is exciting to be a part of a group that studies God’s Word. 

We do “Biblical Storytelling” in our life group and we have been going through the Gospels looking at how Jesus taught and mentored His disciples. When someone in our group tells the Bible story the Bible comes alive and everyone in our group gets to experience in a small way what those disciples experienced on the road to Emmaus!

Here are a few of the discussion questions that are asked after every story: 1. What do we learn about Jesus in this story? 2. What is Jesus teaching his disciples in this story? 3. What is Jesus teaching me personally from this story? 

Application

I will look forward to reading God’s Word every day with anticipation and great expectation! How about you?

  

Prayer

Heavenly Father, may Your Word always burn in my heart when I hear it and when I read it. Don’t ever let me become indifferent to Your Word. I pray that more and more of our people that make up our church would develop the habit of spending time in Your Word every day.
