Highlights**** Besides showing us His Holiness, His Power,
His Provision, He also shows us His Wisdom.
Jesus was a great teacher during His time on earth. He took every opportunity to teach. Jesus taught the leaders of the day and the poor
alike – He taught them about their sinful hearts and need for repentance. He often taught His lessons in stories, in
parables, that help us understand the meaning of His points. Every meeting with people, every situation
was used to teach about God’s love, mercy, judgment and grace. Many modern-day people consider Jesus just a
good teacher – but He is more than that.
He is our teacher that points out our sins and provides way of
correction, restoration with God. You
can reject what a teacher tells you, but it doesn’t make it any less true when
it is the truth. Tonight we learned
specifically on how Jesus taught us to pray and share through examples He has
given us in Matthew 6. We are not to just
follow commands to recite words or just perform good deeds; we are to use these
as examples of how to have the right heart that pleases God. The first step of having a heart that pleases
God is to have a repentant, humble heart that has been surrendered to God and
the rest just comes naturally out of the heart that seeks Him.
