God’s Life-Giving Word of Discipleship

DAY 11 OF 31

  

January 11

Introduction

Jesus heals the daughter of a Jewish official and a woman who had suffered for twelve years with severe bleeding. He restores sight to two blind men and drives out a demon from a man who could not talk. Jesus travels to towns and villages, preaching the Good News and healing people of every kind of disease.

Today’s Key Scripture: Matthew 9:36

As he saw the crowds, his heart was filled with pity for them, because they were worried and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

Today’s Reading 

Matthew 9:18-38

Reflect

For the past four days, we have been reading about Jesus’s healing ministry as recorded in chapters 8 and 9 of Matthew’s Gospel. Which of these stories moved you most? Why? What did these stories teach you about Jesus? In today’s reading, what did Jesus say to those who were healed?

Pray

Lord Jesus, you are the Great Physician and Shepherd. Heal my wounds, both physical and spiritual, and be present with all who need your healing today. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Doctors and nurses

Tomorrow’s Reading
