Everyday with Jesus

Chapter 6
Disciples act as salt
Luke 14:34 - 15:10
"What good is salt that has lost its saltiness? Flavourless salt is fit for nothing...' " (v.34 - 35)

This is one of the most fascinating statements in Bible, and follows on closely after Jesus has been defining the conditions of Christian discipleship.

Impurities

In the days of Jesus, salt, of course, was not found in the form we know it today. They knew little about the purification process, and so the salt often contain Impurities such as sand dirt and grime. Salt that was very impure often throw out and put, because its hard, rock - like quality, in the foundation of foot paths. If you would care now to take a look at Matthew 5:13, you will see something more of this interesting truth. You can see at once from this that if our lives are full of impurities, then we shall be of very little use to our Lord. We will become tasteless salt, fit to be trodden under foot. As Christian and Christ disciples, we are to be like salt in the world: PURE, CLEAN and WHOLESOME. What are things that cause our salt to be tasteless? Lying could be one. When we fail to face up to the truth in every way, this robs us of being effective disciples of the Lord Jesus. Anger could be another - the bitterness we show when we asked to do something that we know must be done but tends to be time - consuming, boring or tiring.

MAKE OTHERS THIRSTY

One of the characteristics of salt we ought to bear in mind is that salt creates thirst. Eat some salt and soon you need to rush to the tap for a drink of water. If only today we could make others thirsty for knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. God grant that it may be so in each lives.

PRAYER:

Lord, I want to be as salt to all those I meet this day, creating in them through my love for You, a desire to know You as wonderfully as i do . This is ask in Jesus' Name. Amen
