• Jesus is in Capernaum

• A highly valued slave was sick and nearing death 

• He was the slave of a Roman officer 

• The officer heard about Jesus, and he sent some Jewish leaders to ask him to come and heal his slave

• They earnestly begged Jesus to come with them and help the man who felt that he deserved the help bc of his love for the Jews and he built them a synagogue He was uncertain if Jesus was going to grant a Gentile request. Jesus is for everyone 

• Jesus went with them 

• Right before they get to the house the officer sends word to Jesus that he should not trouble himself by coming to his house because he feels unworthy for Jesus to enter his house so he said Just say the word from where you are and my servant will be healed 

• He explains that he is a man under authority and he has authority and he only needs to say Go and his servants go and come and they come do and they do. He was humble 

• Jesus was amazed and he turned to the crowd and said I tell you, (the crowd) I haven’t seen faith like this in all the land of Israel that gentile understood his authority and not his own chosen people 

• When the officers who were sent went back to the house they found the slave completely healed

• Are you the Messiah we are expecting or should we expect someone else?

• At that very time, he cured many people of their various diseases, cast out evil spirits, and restored sight to the blind  

• They were expecting a Messiah and asking should expect someone else. Who are you expecting him to deal with life in the world as we have seen that is going crazy the only hope you have is to put your trust in Jesus and surrender your life to him 

• John needed reassurance and so do we when we are suffering and it's about to take our doubts and questions to God we just don't stay there

Day 11 Luke 6: 17-49 

 

Jesus is teaching the disciples 

 

The Beatitudes - 

God blessed the poor - the Kingdom of God is theirs (spiritually poor)

God blessed the hungry now -they will be satisfied (spiritual appetite)

God blessed those who weep now they will laugh with joy (spiritual grief over sin)

You may be experiencing this now but not always 

God blessed the hated, excluded, mocked, cursed-identifited with me the Son of Man 

Because he was hated, excluded, mocked, and cursed 

 

When these things happen to you -rejoice 

Your reward is in heaven 

He reminds them that their ancestors were mistreated as well 

 

The Sorrows 

Who does sorrow await?

 The rich -you have your only happiness now they have no spiritual wealth 

The satisfied and prosperous now time of awful hunger is before you 

You who laugh carelessly-laughing will turn to mourning and sorrow 

Praised by the crowds- ancestors also praised false prophets 

They may have now but will lack later 

Divine approval over human praise 

 

Love for Enemies 

 If you are willing to listen ( to do these you have a willingness 

Love your enemies 

Do good to those who hate you 

Pray for those who curse you 

Pray for those who hurt you 

Turn the other cheek 

Give what you have to anyone who asks 

Do for others as you would like to do them 

Do you deserve credit for loving those who love you, even sinners do that 

If you do good to those who do good to you is that wonderful sinner do that 

Lend money to those who can repay even sinners do that 

Love your enemies do good to them lend to them don't be concerned if they can repay bc the reward from heaven will be great and you are acting like children on the Most High 

Because he is kind to the unthankful and the wicked 

Be compassionate bc your Father is compassionate 

 

Judgment 

Stop judging and you will not be judged this verse is about discernment 

Stop criticizing others or it will come back on you 

Forgive others you will be forgiven 

Give and you will receive 

Your gift will return to you in full measure pressed down and shaken together to make room for more running over 

What you use in the measure that the standard measure you will be used 

 

The blind leads the blind to death you need someone who can See to lead those who reject Christ and teach others to do so will end up in destruction 

 

The student is not greater than the teacher the one who works hard will be like the teacher. Christ is our teacher and we are to be like him

 

Be careful about following the wrong person 

 

Worry about the log in your own eyes vs the speck in your friends

Hyporcrietes one who pretends to be someone else 

Deal with you first then you will see well enough to worry about someone else 

 

The Tree and its Fruit 

A good tree can't produce bad fruit 

Bad trees can't produce good fruit 

A tree is identified by the fruit it produces 

A good person produces good deeds from a good heart 

An evil person produces evil deeds from an evil heart

You can identify people who follow God based on what they say and do

Whatever is in your heart determines what you say 

 

Two Foundations

Why do you call me Lord when you won't obey me or do what I say 

I will show you what it is like to 

1. Come to me 

2. Listen to my teaching 

3. Obey me

 

A person who builds their house on a strong foundation when the floodwaters rise and break against the house 

It stands bc it well built

Your foundation determines your future

Listening and not obeying 

Like a house without a foundation when the flood goes against it, it will crumble into a heap of ruins

Your Foundation Determines Your Future 

 

Luke 5 

 

Don’t be afraid; from now on you will catch men 

• Jesus is teaching the Word of God and the people are listening 

• Simon Peter had left his boat and was washing his nets 

• Jesus gets in Simon’s boat and asks Simon to push it out and little from the shore and he continues to teach from the boat 

• After teaching, He told Simon to Put out into the deep water and let down the nets for a catch. 

• We cant pick up what we are not willing to down 

• Simon objects stating that they had worked all night and haven’t caught anything BUT IF YOU SAY SO, I WILL LET DOWN THE NETS

• Obedience produces blessings. He blesses us so we can bless others 

• They caught so much that their nets began to break and they had to call for help 

• They filled two boats and they were so full they began to break 

• When this happened Simon Peter fell to his knees and told Jesus to get away because he was a sinful man His holiness exposes our sinfulness

• They were astonished. He had John and James the sons of Zebedee with him 

• Jesus tells Simon “Dont be afraid from now on you will catch men 

• They pulled the boats and left everything and followed him 

• Are you willing to leave everything to follow him?

• If you say, I will -________ what needs to go and be put down in your life so you can pick up your blessings 

I am willing

• Jesus was in a town and the many was covered with leprosy

• Same response as Peter. When he saw Jesus  he fell to the ground and begged him 

Lord, if you are willing you can make me clean only Jesus can make you clean 

• Jesus touched the man and told him “I am willing, Be clean! The law would have considered the man unclean 

• The healing was immediate

• Jesus ordered him to not tell anyone but go show yourself to the priest and offer sacrifice commanded for your cleansing as a testimony to them a physical testimony vs verbal testimony 

•  The news spread and the crowds of people came to hear him and to be healed of their sickness 

• But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed 

• When the eyes see Jesus they respond with humility they know him to be a healer before they are healed. This man desires his healing. Jesus was willing to heal and clean the man

• The healing was a testimony

• Our healings are not just for us they are for others 

• Again we see the importance of withdrawing and break away from praying like yesterday 

• The greater his platform grew the more he depended on the father 

Where do you need healing 

Your sins are forgiven 

• Jesus was teaching and the Pharisees and the teachers of the law were there 

• The power of the Lord was present for him to heal the sick 

• Some men carrying their disabled friend on a mat tried to take him into the house to lay him before Jesus 

• When they could not find a way 

• They went up on the roof and lowered him into the middle of the crowd 

• Right in front of Jesus 

• Friend that lay you before Jesus in prayer. 

• Friends that make a way

• Friends that will not be afraid of the crowd and will stand in the middle with you 

• Friends that stand with you in front of Jesus 

• Jesus saw their faith. 

• Jesus called the man a Friend 

• Your sins are forgiven 

• The Pharisees and the teachers of the law thought Jesus was blaspheming bc only God can forgive sins 

• Jesus knew their thoughts and addressed the heart

• Why are you thinking these thoughts in your heart?

• The heart and mind intertwined 

• Is it easier to be healed spiritually or physically?

• The Son of Man has the authority on Earth to forgive sins 

• Jesus tells the paralyzed man get up, take your mat, and go home 

• The mat to remember the healing?

• He stood up and took the he had been lying on and went home praising God 

• Everyone was amazed and praised God filled with awe saying “We have seen remarkable things today 

• As  I have stated before physical and spiritual healing are both necessary for total wholeness. His greatest need was to be forgiven of his sin and Jesus knew that 

• Why did he take the mat instead of leaving?

• When we get up don't forget the healing we received we look back on what was Lying on and we praise God for taking us up from that mat 

• How are you faith friends

Follow Me 

• Jesus saw tax collector Levi

• Jesus just walked up to Levi and said Follow Me 

• Levi got up and left everything and followed him 

• Levi hosted these banquet for Jesus at his house and a large crowd of tax collectors and others were eating with them He was sharing his changed life with others

• Jesus -it's not the healthy who need a doctor but the sick I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance 

• The fact that Jesus walked up and this man just followed him 

• Who did you need to share the gospel with 

In those days they will fast 

• They asked him about John’s disciples often fasting and praying and so do the Pharisees disciples but they keep on eating and drinking 

• Jesus answered Can you make the guest of the bridegroom fast while he is with them 

• The time would come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them and in those days they will fast 

• He ends with a parable 

• Jesus was bringing something new and they wanted the old 

• No one who welcomes him would say the old was better after they have tasted and seen the Lord is good.

Satan tempts us in our strength and not our weaknessess 

He then tempts Jesus in these areas:

Provisions

Turn these stones into bread 

Jesus response: People can’t live by bread alone 

Possessions 

The Devil told him I will give you all these kingdoms and authority over them because they are mine and I can give to whoever I please 

Posture

If you worship me....

Jesus replied: You must worship the Lord your God and serve only him 

Protection

The Devil took Jesus to the highest point of the Temple 

If you are the Son of God. Jump off 

Then the Devil used Scripture 

How you going to use the Word with the Word 

Jesus replied You must not test the Lord your God

 

The Digest 

• The Devil tempts us with our strengths, not our weaknesses. He knew Jesus had power and he wanted Jesus to use his power prematurely. Once he overcomes this temptation he will be ready for the mission field 

• Jesus was tempted and temptation is part of the human experience so he like us was tempted and didn't sin. 

• The Devil will misinterpret Scripture 

• The Devil doesn’t isolate us to one temptation they are ongoing so we must be ongoing 

• The best way to resist temptation is the Word of God 

• Jesus was in the synagogue weekly making him the example for us to be in church each week 

• Your family and friends may not welcome your life in Christ and that's ok. Keep seeking God because you belong to the greater family and the Kingdom Family 

• Be a witness to them anyway 

• Where Jesus is demons flee. The demons have an agenda of “interfering”  

• Demons are fallen angels ruled by satan to harass people, tempt them to sin, and kill them.

• God restores our health through faith like Peter’s Mother in Law so that we can serve 

• He has the ability to heal all kinds of diseases with a word. 

• He shut the demons up to show his authority 

• His identity would be revealed in God’s timetable 

• The demons know who He was 

• Jesus at daybreak went to a place of solitary to pray and be with His Father so should we. 

• We are to proclaim the good news more places

• How are you handling temptations?

• In what ways, have you rejected by family and friends due to faith in Christ? How do you handle or need to handle 

• Seeing the authority Jesus has and if you are his how can this help you combat the evil one. You have no power over me only which i give you..

The Chew 

Luke 10:19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you
