Back to the Basics

• 6:46Matthew 9

  Have you ever felt so strongly that there's a need out there? And you say, what can I do? Well, in Matthew 9, 35-38, we see Jesus standing in the middle of a crowd just like this. He doesn't see the business or the surface level stories. He sees their hearts. And what rises within him is not frustration or indifference, but compassion. A compassion so deep that it moves him to an action.

• 7:41Matthew 9

  What happens when even that same spirit of God that's here is in you, leading you to share the gospel in the dark places? So let's read in our scripture today, Matthew 9, verse 35. Jesus continued going to all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness. When he saw the crowds, he felt…

  The sole bridge between our frailty and God's all-sufficient strength is faith. This is not the first time Jesus reminds us that faith is needed. Think about Matthew 9. We're seeing their faith of the paralytic's friends. Jesus heals him. Think about Matthew 9.22. To the woman who had suffered a bleeding disorder for 12 years. When Jesus healed her, he proclaimed,

Ecclesiastes

• 28:19Matthew 9

  In Matthew 4, it took courage for the disciples to drop their fishing nets and follow the Messiah. It takes great courage, Matthew 4, to leave the boat and your family and pursue the Savior. Matthew 9, it takes courage to leave your career and your tax collection booth and become a disciple of Jesus Christ. It takes great courage when you have the reputation of Mary Magdalene.

When in Romans

• 33:49Matthew 9

  Oh, that we would have faith today that drives out fear. Faith that drives out fear. Consider Matthew 9. Just then, some men brought to Jesus a paralytic lying on a stretcher. So there were friends who brought their paralyzed friend to Jesus. Seeing their faith. Whose faith? Not singular faith. Collective faith. Seeing their faith.

• 34:40Matthew 9

  Oh, that we would have faith to bring our friends to Jesus. Same chapter, Matthew 9. Jesus turned to a woman and saw her. Have courage, daughter. He said, your faith has saved you, and the woman was made well from that moment. If you read that passage, this woman who had been suffering for 12 years, walked up behind Jesus and touched his robe. And she had faith enough to believe if she could just touch the hem of the Messiah's garment.

Vision 2024

• 20:49Matthew 9

  You would never thirst again. The gospel has always been a good news message for the lost. For the barbarian. For the outsider. Think about what the Pharisees said as a moment of slander towards Jesus. In Matthew 9. Again, while he was reclining at the table in the house, many tax collectors and sinners came to eat with Jesus and his disciples. They were barbarians. When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, why does…

Vision 2024

• 35:13Matthew 9

  They were demon-possessed by legions. You know what Jesus did? He invited them into the kingdom. Now, some pigs lost their life in the invitation. You can go home and read that. It's Matthew 9 and 10. But those that were watching the swine came away with two major thoughts. They went to the village and said, guys, all the animals have died. Not good. And then they said, but you won't believe the two men.

The Mind of a Disciple

• 2:49Matthew 9

  So if you have your Bibles, go ahead and turn to Matthew chapter 9 this morning. And while you do, I want to share a story with you and kind of tell you about some of my life. Have you ever been to a point, maybe it was a day, a moment, a season of life, where you thought you were…

• 7:13Matthew 9

  …great spiritual applications that we can make in our life when we realize that if we go to the great physician, we can find fulfillment and flourishing in our lives again. So let me pray, and then we're going to read Matthew chapter 9. Let me pray, Father, as we read your word, we know that you are holy and you are righteous. And Father, we thank you that you are the great physician. And Lord, some of us today are more sick than we realize.

Mark

• 11:02Matthew 9

  Jesus in Matthew 9 says, "It is not those who are well who need the doctor, but it's the sick." They get that. This man has a malady, and specifically what's wrong with him. Huh? Huh? Anyone? I can't hear you. That's your hint, right? He's deaf. And so what's amazing here, the translation is he is dull or severely impaired in his hearing.

• 20:34Matthew 9

  What church would not want those people? But they had a peculiar struggle in their lives. They looked good. On the outside, Jesus even calls them, they're whitewashed. They look really good, but this is what they start to ask. They're in Matthew 9 again. In verse 11. Same portion of scripture. The crowds and disciples. Now we have these Pharisees and disciples. And they're asking questions like 9-11. Look at verse 11 of chapter 9.

• 18:25Matthew 9

  …believe anyway and you're coming with a hard heart. We're going to see how God can change that this morning. And may we say, this is my prayer for us. I've been reading with our kids scripture at night and we came to Matthew 9. And some of you remember this situation. There's a man who has a child who is in desperate need of God's healing.

• 18:49Matthew 9

  There's a man who has a child who is in desperate need of God's healing. And Jesus comes to him and Jesus says, do you believe I can do it? And the man says, well, maybe. And Jesus says, I can do all things. Jesus is almost perturbed here. And this is what the man's prayer is in Matthew 9. The man says, I believe, help my unbelief. But what? You believe, but help your unbelief.

• 6:48Matthew 9

  And so it was when Jesus had ended these sayings that the people were astonished at his teaching. Matthew 8, chapter 19. There a certain scribe came to see Jesus and he said, teacher, I will follow you wherever you go. Matthew 9, verse 11. When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, why does your teacher eat with tax collectors eat with tax collectors and sinners? Matthew chapter 26, verse 49. Immediately he,

• 16:48Matthew 9:11

  Jesus, he came, he fulfilled the object of the gospel. He established relationships with sinners. Matthew, chapter 9, verse 11, he demolished religion and erected righteousness. If you'll go to Matthew, chapter 23, the seven woes to the church, he gave a fear, clear warning. He demolished religion and he erected righteousness. Folks, let me…
