Let’s pray for the Lord to impart into some the desire, the burden, and the commission to serve full time

And while He was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. And He said to them, Come after Me, and I will make you fishers of men. And immediately leaving the nets, they followed Him. And going on from there, He saw another two brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and He called them. And immediately leaving the boat and their father, they followed Him. Matt. 4:18-22

Dear saints, let us pray that the Lord would impart into some the desire, the burden, and the commission to serve Him full time in a job-dropping way (Matt. 4:18-22).

We must know why we serve full time. We must have a burden given by the Lord, not according to our inclination, preference, or choice. A man-made burden does not have much value. Many burdens in Christianity are man-made; they are of the natural preference and inclination. We should study the situation in Christianity. Peter and Paul received a burden from the Lord. Our burden should also be from the Lord. Perhaps the Lord’s burden is not yet formed in a brother, but he should at least have a burden to learn and pursue.
