Verse 12-26: Obviously we don't cast lots in our current times but what we should always model ourselves after these believers is their approach to decision making. Choosing a replacement for Judah was by no means a small deal, put great effort. They didn't just outline specific criteria based on Jesus teaching but they prayed asking God to guide the decision process. It's easy for me to just make decisions easily and quickly without resorting to prayer first. Just because I know scripture, doesn't mean that I'll always make the best course of action, knowledge is not enough. I hope and pray that I'll be always more reliant on God more than my own understanding
