Matthew 9-12, Psalm 65

About this episode

This episode explores the miraculous acts of Jesus as described in Matthew 9-12 and reflects on their significance for both witnesses and followers today.

If you’ve been a follower of Jesus for a while, chances are that you’ve heard many of today’s accounts before. Jesus cleanses the lepers, opens the ears of the deaf and the eyes of the blind, raises the dead, casts demons out of people, and then commissions His disciples to do the same. As you listen to today’s reading, don’t let familiarity keep you from contemplating how absolutely mind-boggling all of this would have been to those who witnessed it. Even the Pharisees couldn’t deny what was happening, they could only question how. Such strong displays of power and wisdom can only be done by One who is the Son of God.
