My questions and answers

1. Which disciple is your favorite?

After doing some research I learned that Luke was not one of the twelve disciples but may have been part of the seventy disciples that Jesus sent out to gather in the harvest (See Luke 10).

Anyway, my favorite disciples are John and Luke.

2. How often do you pray The Lord’s Prayer?

The Lord’s prayer is a guide or formulae of how we should pray. I tried to follow this formula every day.

3. How often do you take communion?

My church has communion service every first Sunday in the month. However, since this COVI-19 pandemic, it has been very difficult to observe communion.

I used to take communion with my children every Sunday after dinner and pray together. I think I will be returning to this practice.

4. Do you listen to sermons during the week?

Most nights I listened to Charles Lawson before going to bed.

5. If Jesus asked you to have your own small group of 4, which 3 disciples or Bible Characters would you choose to be in your weekly prayer group?

My prayer group would consist of David, Joseph, Daniel, and Moses. They all had a powerful prayer life.

6. Why did you choose those 3?

I chose four. I could not leave out Daniel. I chose David because of his repenting heart and he knew how and when to seek the Lord.

I chose Joseph because of his patience, self-control, and perseverance; Daniel because he was a prayer warrior and Moses because he had a close relationship with God and he was an intercessor.

7. Which Bible characters do you relate to or understand the most?

I can relate to Moses because of his relationship with God.

8. Which disciple would you be with the most?

Peter. I would like to get a better understanding of him.

9. Which disciple would you get along with the best?

My answer is the same as number one.

10. If you were in the painting of the Last Supper, where would you be sitting?

I am not too keen on that painting.

11. Peter carried a sword and cut off a soldier’s ear in an attempt to protect Jesus. If you were there that night, what would your reaction have been to the soldiers coming to arrest Jesus?

I am not a violent person so I guess my first reaction would be to run.

In today’s world where the police and soldiers would have guns, I would drop my weapon and hold my hands in the air hoping that they would not shoot an unarmed woman.

12. We all need a Simon Peter in our life, someone who carries a “sword” and will fight for you. Who is/was your Simon Peter?

Thank God, He is fighting my battle and that is enough.

13. Similar to Jesus, we all have a Judas in our lives who helps us fulfill our destiny or find our purpose. Can you look back and appreciate their role in your life despite the harm they did or the hurt they caused?

I don’t think I had a “Judas” in my life, but I have been through some trials in life and the Lord has taken me through.

The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. (Psalms 34:18-20)

I wish to nominate everyone that read this post.

You are nominated for the Thirteenth Disciple Tag!

Beverley has been serving the Lord since she was a child. At an early age, she recognized that God had a special plan for her life, but it was not until in her adulthood that she surrendered her total life to God and accepted the mandate that God placed on her life. The Lord called her into His Kingdom to be an encourager, intercessor, teacher, scribe, priest, and to proclaim the Word of God. Since then, Beverly has established a blog to teach us to become the oil and wine. The oil and wine are purified and mature products, which is the advanced level that the Lord expected of us. In 2017, Beverley published her first book, Harm Not The Oil And Wine. In it, she described her trials and how God helped her to overcome them, and to live more victoriously. The book also exposed the enemy of our souls with detailed information about his past defeats and future extinction. Wright spents most of her time studying the Bible to know the truth of God’s Word. She believes that only God’s truth can expose the deception of the enemy, and uproot and tear down spiritual strongholds. You can learn more about Beverley’s life and testimony on her website becomingtheoilandwine.com. You can also find her on Facebook and Google+ under the name of her blog, and on Twitter as @Theoilandwine. View all posts by Beverley
