Hearing God thru His Word
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 8-15, 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’s identity & priorities.
On Monday, we learn from Matt 8
that God Blesses those who Believe.
On Tuesday, we learn fr Matt 9
that Christ Models Compassion.
On Wed, we learn from Matt 10
that Christ Empowers & Cares.
On Thu, we learn from Matt 11
that Christ Gives Rest to the Weary,
On Friday, we learn from Matt 13/14
that God Reveals His Will to us.
On Saturday, we learn from Mt 17
that God Can Perform the Impossible.
Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who Hear You:
For God You Bless those who Believe
and that You Reveal Your Will to us;
For Christ Models Compassion,
as well as Gives Rest to the Weary;
For God Can Perform the Impossible
as well as Empowers & Cares for us.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
