Robyn's Bible Reading Strategies Applied
415. Healing on the Sabbath 1. Today's Passage: Matthew 12:9-14 Get to know your bible. It will become a good friend. Or find the passage NASB version on Bible Gateway here. You can search for other versions there as well. Versions even in foreign languages. Or, for your convenience I have typed the verses below from the New Living Testament (NLT). 2. Thank You for meeting me, LORD. I welcome you into this place. Please prepare my heart Jehovah. Thank you for insight. 9. Then Jesus went over to their synagogue, 10. where he noticed a man with a deformed hand. The Pharisees asked Jesus, "Does the law permit a person to work by healing on the Sabbath?" (They were hoping he would say yes, so they could bring charges against him." 11. And he answered, "If you had a sheep that fell into a well on the Sabbath, wouldn't you work to pull it out? Of course you would. 12. And how much more valuable is a person then a sheep! Yes, the law permits a person to do good on the Sabbath." 13. Then he said to the man, "Hold out your hand." So the man held out his hand, and it was restored, just like the other one! 14. Then the Pharisees called a meeting to plot how to kill Jesus. Matthew 12:9-14 NLT 3. 2nd strategy Meditation in WORSHIP God is able to speak to us through those words that we read and reread, as we think about what we have read and ponder those words infiltrate our minds and change us. They give us a better understanding of what God is saying in His word. Through that better understanding we begin to think differently, and our attitudes and lives change. Even our actions toward ourselves, others and the world change to be more Christlike. And isn't that what Christians desire? To be Christ like. To be Christ followers. To know God. With these precepts or tenets in place, let us begin with WORSHIP.
