Matthew – Chapter 9

  • Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:37-38 – There is a lot of hurting, lost people out there in the world in need of Jesus’ love. I know that you have your life and you’re mind is so full of accomplishing the things set in front of you, but do your best today to remember your real mission for today. You are to be a harvester. You are alive today to step into the lives of those hurting, lost people and share Jesus’ love with them. It’s so easy to get sidetracked with the busyness of life, but let’s make sure we keep our focus where it needs to be today. Maybe today, because you kept your focus on your mission today, one of those hurting, lost people can become healed and found. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 863
  • And the report of this went through all that district. Matthew 9:26 – Report of what? That Jesus just raised a dead young lady to life. Maybe attached to that was the story of the woman He just healed from a 12 year bleeding disorder. Maybe attached as well was the story of paralyzed man that got up and walked home because of Jesus. What we do know is the story of what happened was shared. Today this message is at the heart of my sermon, share what you have seen. What amazing things have you seen Jesus do? Share those stories with people who don’t know yet who God is, what He can do, and what He promises to do in their story. Share the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the world that needs to hear it. As with our Matthew passage we begin to see a movement toward Jesus happening everywhere He went because people began sharing what they had seen with others who hadn’t yet. You want to see the world move to Jesus? Share what you have seen. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1959
