The Bible Speaks to our condition A Look at Matthew 9 The Bible Speaks to our condition

Introduction Mt 9 contains material that could command our attention for far more than just one lesson It gives us a picture of the movement and ministry of our Lord as he meets the need of those around Him He is very busy ministering the needs of others We see His compassion in the giving of Himself to others Mt 9 shows Christ constantly involved in controversy with those who disagreed with Him The Pharisees (religious leaders) were among His harshest critics These disagreements did not discourage Him from completing His purpose Christ did not allow these difficulties to cause retaliation Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Heb 13:8) If Christ was concerned during His earthly life about suffering, we can be certain He is moved with compassion as our Lord and Savior over us today

The Lordship of Christ Jesus as Lord over disease (Mt 9:1-7) Jesus as Lord over life (Mt 9:9) The call of Matthew would change his life for ever Matthew would now us his pen to record the first gospel Jesus as Lord over death (Mt 9:18-26) Jesus as Lord over blindness (Mt 9:27-31) Jesus as Lord over the demonic (Mt 9:32) Christ is the Lord over the greatest foes we face He wants to give us the victory over our enemies He is worthy to be Lord over our lives and all we possess

The Importance of Faith The faith of the paralytic and his friends brought both forgiveness and the restoration of health (Mt 9:1-7) The faith of the grief-stricken ruler made possible our Lord’s restoration of his daughter to life (Mt 9:18-19) The faith of the woman who suffered from a hemorrhage for twelve years brought healing to her body (Mt 9:20-22) The faith of the two blind men who were seeking their sight was rewarded by Christ (Mt 9:27-30) The refusal to believe in Jesus Christ places limitations on His power to change lives and circumstances that would defeat us

Conclusion The Christ of the gospel of Matthew is the Christ whom we should worship today as Lord We need to trust Christ as we face the painful problems of life so that He might work His miraculous changes both in and through us Let us all spend time listening to what God would say to us through the ninth chapter of the gospel of Matthew
