But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
But we're going to stay focused on what we do best, spending time in prayer and teaching God's word.
Stay in your lane and do what you're called to do.
📚 Historical Context
In the early days of the Christian church, as described in the Book of Acts, the apostles were overwhelmed with administrative tasks like distributing food to widows, which distracted them from their primary spiritual roles. This led them to propose selecting seven reputable men to handle these practical duties, allowing the apostles to focus entirely on prayer and the ministry of the Word. This decision reflected the growing needs of the early church and emphasized the importance of prioritizing spiritual leadership.
