Scripture Reading Luke 17

 

What do we learn about what happened to the other nine?

 

B). Scripture doesn't say

But, it is noted that the ten lepers represent the Jews, and the one leper (stranger) represent the Gentiles, who is the integration of the Gentiles into the Church, which is at hand.

 

According to this study: Questions

 

1).     Why couldn't the disciples heal the young boy?

1. There was lack of faith. Matthew 17:20 says, ""Because you have so little faith."" The disciples didn't have the faith to believe that Jesus could operate through them and give deliverance. We often fail for the same reason. We ask, ""Can God……?"" (Psalm 78:19), and we doubt the ability of Jesus to put forth His power. We are filled with unbelief - compare Matthew 13:58; Matthew 17:19-20.

2. There was lack of prayer (Mark 9:29). Certain situations require urgent and persistent prayer, and if this is deficient there will be a deficiency of power. Evidently the disciples had not prayed enough - they were powerless. How challenging when our own ministry may be powerless and fruitless!

3. There was lack of fasting (Mark 9:29). Fasting denotes such an intensity of desire and purpose that we are ready to put aside legitimate things to seek God's face and get His blessing. It may mean denying ourselves secondary things for a time so that spiritual power may be released and souls who are in bondage may be delivered for a time - compare Exodus 19:14-15; 2 Samuel 12:16-17; Esther 4:16; Jonah 3:7-8; John 7:53; 8:1; 1 Corinthians 7:5. How far are we willing to make a voluntary denial of things, which of themselves are quite lawful and legitimate, in order that God's face may be sought in earnest and persistent prayer and that souls may be delivered from terrible bondage?

 

2).     How did Jesus reveal God's will?

Jesus is the one who reveals God to us. If we want to know what God is like, all we have to do is look at Jesus. If we want to know how God cares for people, we can look at how Jesus ministered to them. If we want to know God's will for our lives, we can listen to Jesus' words and know they reveal God's truth. Jesus reveals the nature of God in his actions and his words. And, Jesus continues to reveal God to us. He is the one through whom the fullest revelation of God comes. Let's look to Jesus if we really want to know God.

         

3).     What was the disciples called in this lesson?

They were called a "faithless and perverse generation."

 

My Confession:

To I know that Jesus is the will of God in action, because He has revealed God to me through the Holy Spirit, and I know God wants me free from sickness. Thank You, Father, for Your healing power at work in me right now, I experience God's healing power in my life every day!

 

 

Week # 10   NUGGESTS:

 

God leads us through His written Word.

As the psalmist said: Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. (Psalm 119:105)

Whenever you see the phrase "This is the will of God" in Scripture, you can count on it: that's God's will. You also know that to disobey is to reject His Word. Other clear indications of His leading are the precepts and principles in Scripture.

Precepts are clearly marked statements, such as "Abstain from sexual immorality." That's like saying, "Speed Limit 35." What is speeding? Anything over 35 miles an hour! That's a precept.

Then there are principles in Scripture, and these are general guidelines that require discernment and maturity if we are to grasp them. Paul writes of "the peace of God" guarding and guiding our hearts and our minds (Philippians 4:7). That's like the sign that says, "Drive Carefully." This may mean 40 miles an hour on a clear, uncongested road, or it may mean less than 10 miles an hour on an ice-covered curve. But it always means that we must be alert and aware of conditions . . . we have to be discerning. There is no sign large enough to list all the options you have when you're behind the wheel. So you must know the rules of the road, follow the signs that are there, and use all your best judgment combined with discernment.

You will never, ever go wrong in consulting Scripture. Just be sure you pay close attention to the context. Don't use the "open-window method," letting the wind blow across the pages of your Bible and then closing your eyes and pointing to a verse and saying, "This is God's leading on that." If you do that, you could end up with "Judas went away and hanged himself" as your verse for the day! Don't go there.
