Matthew

The Miracles of Jesus devotional series invites us to encounter the living Christ through His powerful works and personal compassion. From the empty tomb to storms on the sea and the feeding of the multitudes, we see that Jesus meets us in doubt, need, and uncertainty. These devotionals remind us that faith grows as we draw near to Jesus, bring Him what we have, and walk in obedience. Miracles flow not from striving, but from relationship, trust, and a heart aligned with God’s purposes.

The Miracles of Jesus

Join us as we start the year reading through the Gospels together! This 21-day devotional, written by the pastors and staff of Oasis LA, invites you to draw closer to Jesus through the reflection of His life, ministry and teachings. Each day includes a Scripture reading, a short interpretation from one of our leaders, and a practical step to live out Jesus’ way in daily life. Our prayer is that these three weeks renew your focus and inspire your faith in a fresh and personal way.

21 Days in the Gospels

The Lord’s Prayer is the most well-known prayer in human history—but that familiarity can work against us. We assume we already know what it means, and in doing so, we miss the depth and power Jesus intended. In this six-day plan, you’ll rediscover the prayer through six lenses of context—history, geography, culture, language, literary design, and visual backgrounds—that open up its original meaning. As you explore these dimensions, you’ll see how this ancient prayer is not just words to recite but an invitation to step into Jesus’ mission of bringing heaven to earth.

Understanding the Original Context of the Lord’s Prayer

The Sermon on the Mount isn’t just a list of teachings–it’s a call to a different kind of life. The way of Jesus can feel backward at first, but it’s actually the path that leads to freedom and true transformation. In this plan, we’ll explore five “opposites” that reveal the values of God’s Kingdom and invite us to follow him more fully.

Presence 11: The Lord's Prayer

“The Sermon on the Mount” is the title often given to chapters 5-7 of the Gospel of Matthew. It is a summary of the teaching of Jesus. Although the other Gospels present some similar passages in other contexts, it is likely that Jesus actually delivered this speech on only one occasion, but then repeated the same concepts several times on other occasions as well. Matthew Henry, the great Bible commentator, says that the purpose of the Sermon on the Mount is “not to fill our heads with notions, but to guide and regulate our practice”.

The Sermon on the Mount

The disciples didn’t expect a God they would call by name, a God who would sleep beside them in the night to keep warm, a God susceptible to lice and heat rash. In this 5-day plan, the Gospel Writer Matthew shares the surprises and meaning of seeing the Messiah up close.
