Reflection on Matt 8-18 (Feb 11)

Adoring God thru Thanks & Praise

The purpose of the gospel of Matthew is to prove that Jesus
is the Messiah, the eternal King.
Following ministry in Bethlehem
and Nazareth, the second segment
of Jesus ministry was in Galilee.
In Matthew 8-14, we see Jesus
demonstrating His power over
sickness, nature and spirit world
& sending apostles as ambassadors
of the kingdom. And in Matt 16-19,
we see the Messiah preaching to unveil Christ identity and priorities.

On Monday, we learn from Matt 8
that God Blesses those who Believe.
On Tuesday, we learn fr Matt 10 that
Christ Empowers & Cares the Called.
On Wed, we learn from Matt 11
that Jesus Is Tenderly Calling us.
On Thu, we learn from Matt 14 that Jesus’ Love Lifted and Saved us.
On Friday, we learn from Matt 16
that Christ urges us to Follow Him.
On Saturday, we learn from Mt 17
to Praise God of the Impossible.

Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who Adore You:
For You are worthy of our Thanks
as You Bless, Care and Save us;
For You are worthy of our praise
being the God of the Impossible;
For Your partnership calling us
to follow & further His Kingdom.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
