Scripture Union Daily Guide 25th February 2026 || Outline
Our world is full of worries and troubles. Career advancement, quest for knowledge, family, politics, social media activities, even religious activities, etc. are causing anxieties and apprehensions today. It is possible that even religious knowledge can hinder somebody from life encounter and lasting relationship with Jesus.
Do you think that the Lawyer’s question in Luke 10:25 was borne out of a genuine desire to learn from Jesus? Read Luke 10:26 in many translations and examine the Lawyer’s response in Luke 10:26-27. Jesus seems to be looking for personal experiential response and not general knowledge response (Luke 10:26b). Today, many have sound bible knowledge but lack experiential knowledge.
Read Luke 10:30-36 again. Notice the actions of the religious leaders (Luke 10:31-32). Are there Christian leaders who could see the suffering of their members and pass by the other side without showing compassion? In Luke 10:33, Jesus talked about a “certain” Samaritan and not a “good” Samaritan. What do you think earned him the popular title, “Good Samaritan”?
Luke 10:38-42 tell the story of Mary and Martha. Truly, Martha, like a true traditional African, was overwhelmed by hospitality and care for their august visitor. Notice Martha’s wrong attitude and Jesus’ rebuke and caution. Do not allow business, career, education, family pleasure or even Christian service to distract and deny you of personal encounter and relationship with the Saviour?
