Podcasts about Matthew 9

Episode Summary Missions do not begin only across an ocean; they begin wherever God has placed a believer. In this GoMission interview, retired police officer Bill Chaney tells Mark Gillmore how weekly soulwinning became a way of life and followed him into daily police work. His testimony of compassionate witness, workplace opposition, and trust under authority challenges every Christian to reject the fear of man and speak for Christ where they are. Topics Discussed Discipleship and weekly soulwinning Bringing the gospel into daily police work Showing compassion to vulnerable people Facing discipline after sharing a gospel tract Responding respectfully to authority while trusting God Support from fellow officers How God reopened a closed door for witness Key Takeaways Every workplace and daily setting can become a mission field. Consistent discipleship builds habits of faithful Christian service. Personal evangelism begins with seeing people and caring about their greatest need. Respect for authority and confidence in God are not opposites. No closed door is beyond the ability of God to reopen. Courage begins with the next faithful opportunity to speak for Christ.

In the end of Matthew 9 and all throughout chapter 10, Jesus sends out His twelve disciples to do the things He had been doing: healing the sick, casting out demons, and proclaiming the Kingdom of Heaven. Throughout the rest of the passage, Jesus directs his disciples to live a certain way as they take the message to the harvest. They are to proclaim the message and entrust it to people who will receive it. They are to trust in God's provision even as they are persecuted for their obedience. Everything they did for the Lord would be rewarded. Jesus gives these same principles today to His disciples. 

The speaker teaches from Matthew 9:27–31, where two unnamed blind men cry, “Son of David, have mercy on us,” follow Jesus into a house, and are healed after Jesus asks, “Do you believe I can make you see?” He emphasizes that many believe God can do miracles in general but struggle to trust Him with personal, specific needs, and that long-term pain can reduce a person's identity to their limitation. He highlights faith as continuing to follow Jesus even when the picture is dark, often guided by the worship and testimony of others, and notes the men's shared cry for mercy as a model for unity and an “us” mentality in the church. The message culminates in a call to invite Jesus into one's home, illustrated during baptisms and prayer for families and houses.00:00 House Theme Intro00:34 Matthew 9 Blind Men02:35 Do You Believe Me05:51 Pain Becomes Identity07:14 Follow While Blind10:50 Find Jesus Through Worship15:36 Mercy Becomes Us19:43 Believe In Your House21:11 Baptism Family Moment28:46 Let Him Into Your Home

Memorial of Saint John Vianney, PriestMatthew 9:35-10:1Jesus went around to all the towns and villages,teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom,and curing every disease and illness.At the sight of the crowds,his heart was moved with pity for thembecause they were troubled and abandoned,like sheep without a shepherd.Then he said to his disciples,“The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few;so ask the master of the harvestto send out laborers for his harvest.”

Jesus doesn't call us into consumerism-He calls us to know, experience, and live from a vision of sacrificial love. Following Jesus means carrying his compassion, embracing His truth, and stepping into His mission. And what's even better? He gives us the power to do it.CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here: www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

As we continue through Matthew, Jesus is asked about fasting, but His answer is about far more than a religious practice. He didn't come to improve the old way -He came to make all things new. Through stories of desperate faith and unexpected mercy, we discover that Jesus isn't an add-on to our best efforts; He's all that we need and the one who changes everything.CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here: www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

Jesus told the crowd that stood around Him in v16 + 17 about new wine and fresh cloth - this reality of the newly revealed power of the Kingdom of Heaven. Then, through the rest of the passage, Jesus demonstrated this power by healing five individuals, doing some things for the first time in the Gospel of Matthew and one that had not happened yet in the entire Bible. The ultimate miracle is Jesus' healing of people's sin-sickness on the cross. Jesus wants to demonstrate new-wine and fresh-cloth power in our lives when we bring situations to Him that are too big for us to handle. 

What if the pursuit of happiness is leaving you feeling more empty instead of more fulfilled? Why do we keep chasing happiness, yet still feel like something is missing?Jesus invites us to see life differently. Instead of making our own comfort the center, He calls us to have compassion for people who are searching, hurting, and far from God. In Matthew 9:35–38, Jesus looks at the crowds with compassion and reminds His followers that the harvest is ready, but the workers are few.A meaningful life is not found by constantly asking, “Am I happy?” but by becoming more like Jesus and joining Him in bringing hope to others.Watch and reflect on what it means to live with a heart for the harvest.

Four Scenes of Faith (Matthew 9:18-38) by Faith Family Church Oak Grove

Matt Ahrens | Christ Community CU

If you were to make a list of those most likely to be chosen as disciples by Jesus in Capernaum, Matthew would have been at the bottom of the list. Disliked by all. Dishonest in his work. Disrespected by most who knew him. Yet today we'll see that Jesus calls Matthew's name and Matthew joins the disciples. - Pastor Ron KoolSupport the show

“How we pray should affect how we live our lives”—that's just one lesson we learn in our study of Matthew 9-10 as we continue to deep dive into Jesus' teaching and evidence of power over all things natural and supernatural.

Josh Loomis | Christ Community CU

As we continue our journey through Matthew, we come to one of the most personal moments in the Gospel account—the story of Matthew's own encounter with Jesus. His honest account reminds us that no one is beyond reach of God's grace and challenges us to consider what it truly means to follow Christ. As Jesus calls a tax collector to His table and declares why He came, we're challenged to consider our own story.CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here: www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

If someone were to ask you, “What's the biggest problem in your life right now?” how would you answer?  Would you mention a physical problem? Financial difficulties? Some person? This morning, Jesus challenges us to recognize that the biggest problem in our lives is not one we necessarily think about that much—but it should be. - Pastor Ron KoolSupport the show

Matthew 9:27-38 Audio

Jesus continues to bring God's kingdom by teaching, preaching, and healing. He does not see the crowds with anger, but with compassion, for He has come as the Good Shepherd for sinners. In that compassion, Jesus tells His disciples to pray that the Lord would send laborers to work in His plentiful harvest. In answer to that prayer, He sends His twelve apostles with His authority to preach and to heal.  Rev.

A ruler comes to Jesus, asking Him to lay His hand on the ruler's dead daughter to give her life again. As Jesus goes, He gives cleansing life to another daughter whose issue of blood has made her unclean. As Jesus' touch brings life to this woman, so His touch brings life to the girl who has died. After leaving the house, two blind men cry out to Jesus for mercy. With faith in Jesus as the Son of David, they receive the gift of sight from the Lord. Soon, people bring a demon-oppressed man to Jesus, and He casts out the demon and makes the man speak once more. While this leads the crowds to astonishment, the Pharisees are convinced that Jesus is working in league with the devil.  Rev.

While Matthew is at the tax booth, Jesus goes to him and speaks an authoritative Word: “Follow Me!” That Word accomplishes Jesus' will of making Matthew a disciple. When the Pharisees question Jesus' association with such notorious sinners, Jesus calls them to learn that He has come precisely to call those sick with sin to receive His healing. That joyful ministry is not an occasion for fasting, but for feasting. Jesus is the new wine who cannot be shoved into any manmade wisdom.  Rev.

Back in Capernaum, some men bring to Jesus their paralytic friend on his bed. Jesus sees their faith and speaks comforting words of forgiveness to the man. When the scribes consider this blasphemy, Jesus sees their thoughts and corrects them. He uses His authoritative word to make the paralytic walk, and in so doing, He shows that His Word also has authority to forgive sins. The crowds rightly glorify God for bringing this authority over sin among them.  Rev. Rick Jones, Chaplain and Vice President of Spiritual Life at the Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch in Minot, ND, joins host Rev.

1 Chronicles 3-4; Psalms 18; Matthew 9

Today's Bible Verse:"Then he said to his disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, to send out workers into his harvest field.’" — Matthew 9:37–38 Matthew 9:37–38 captures Jesus’ heart for people and His call for believers to take part in God’s work. As Jesus looked at the crowds, He saw people who were hurting, searching, and in need of guidance. Rather than seeing a problem too large to solve, He saw a harvest ready to be gathered. This passage reminds us that sharing God’s love and truth is not only the responsibility of pastors, missionaries, or ministry leaders. Jesus calls all of His followers to participate in the work of reaching others. The harvest is plentiful, and each believer has a role to play through acts of compassion, encouragement, service, and sharing the hope of Christ.

Today's Bible Verse: "While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples." — Matthew 9:10 Jesus was never afraid to meet people where they were. In Matthew 9:10, we see Him sitting at a table with those who were often rejected and judged by society. His willingness to spend time with tax collectors and sinners reveals the heart of God — a heart that seeks, welcomes, and restores people. Want to listen without ads?
