Miracles and Mysteries: Matthew 8-13ਨਮੂਨਾ

Why do some people understand Jesus, while others don’t?

The disciples ask Jesus why He teaches in parables. His answer is sobering: “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.” The issue isn’t intelligence—it’s the heart. Those who are open to Jesus will understand more, but those who reject Him will have hardened hearts, making it difficult to receive Jesus’ teaching.

This fulfills Isaiah 6:9-10, where God’s word acts both as a revelation and a judgment. The glory of Jesus is seen in His authority over divine truth. He isn’t just a teacher—He is the King who grants or withholds understanding. His words divide the humble from the proud.

Today, ponder this: Are you approaching Jesus with a heart that wants to understand, or one that resists Him?
