Christ as King: A Study in Matthewਨਮੂਨਾ

What does it say?
Jesus forgave sin, healed and delivered as He interacted with men, women, and children. He called Matthew to be a disciple and had dinner with outcasts.
What does it mean?
Throughout this chapter, people put faith in Jesus to meet their needs and the needs of loved ones. One group was so motivated by their conviction that Jesus had the power to heal that they went to great effort to get their friend to Him. While raising the ruler’s dead daughter to life and healing the demon-possessed man caused more spectacle, the woman who touched the hem of Jesus’ garment received healing quietly. The friends, the ruler, and the woman came to Jesus convinced that He could and would help them. He responded to each situation with compassion. They looked to Jesus in complete trust and dependence and were not disappointed.
How should I respond?
Faith in Jesus expressed through prayer, and worship releases God’s power. Prayer is a wonderful mystery. God is not dependent on our prayers, yet He invites us to pray in faith with the expectation that He will act on our behalf. He always answers either yes, no, or wait. What personal situation should you bring to Jesus? Who has God reminded you to pray for? Will you call them today and pray with them, taking them into Jesus’ presence? Each need, whether it seems big or small, will be met with compassion.

About this Plan

Matthew’s Gospel opens the New Testament by brilliantly introducing the culmination of the entire Old Testament story. After thousands of years and dozens of generations, Jesus had come “to save his people from their sins” (Mathew 1:21). Matthew focuses on Jesus as King of Kings, who had come to reign on the throne of David forever.
