Matthew 9 - Day 105 (link to reading plan)
Scripture: Matthew 9:1-8 Observation: Jesus forgives a paralyzed man of his sins and the teachers of religious law question, "Who does he think he is," because only God can forgive sins. Application: The religious leaders and teachers of the Torah were correct in assuming that only God can forgive sins. In fact, they were doing the "religious" thing and upholding God's commandments so they justified in questioning Jesus' actions. However, since their hearts were hardened, they couldn't see the simple truth that Jesus was actually sent by God. How is God trying to get your attention? Do you have a religious conviction that prevents you from loving others? Take a moment to search your heart, mind, and relationships. Prayer: Lord, forgive me for my religious attitudes that puff me up and distance me from You and others. Comments are closed.
