23 One Sabbath he was going through the grain fields, and as they made their way his disciples began to pluck heads of grain. 24 The Pharisees said to him, “Look, why are they doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath?” 25 And he said to them, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need of food, 26 how he entered the house of God when Abiathar was high priest and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and he gave some to his companions?” 27 Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for humankind and not humankind for the Sabbath, 28 so the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.”
Prayer Focus: When was the last time you celebrated the sabbath? Not the sabbath as a time of restriction, but the sabbath as a time of restoration and renewal. Pray that you might find a time of sabbath today, a time when you turn this day over to the Lord, so that you might be fed and restored.
