Matthew 15:29-39

So you’re layed off from work, and no one is hiring in your field of expertise.  Or you’re hit with medical bills that far surpass what you have in the bank!  It’s about that time that we can start to worry!  But today on Sound Doctrine we’ll be encouraged to hear how God provides and meets our needs.  You’ll hear how He came through for close to 12 thousand hungry gentiles in a big way.  It’s reminiscent of a miracle we heard earlier in Matthew’s gospel.  

Today we’ll join pastor Jeff Johnson at the tail-end of Matthew chapter fifteen.  God is our great provider!  He loves to meet our every need, and that really jumps off the page here in this section of Scripture.  Jesus is about to feed thousands of people, once again underscoring He loves to meet needs.  He can do the same in your life, so trust Him!  

Maybe you have some unmet needs today and wondering what to do next?  Perhaps you even wonder who even cares?  Well today on Light on the Hill we’re encouraged by the truth that God cares and He wants to meet our every need!  We’ll be finishing up Matthew chapter fifteen with pastor James Kaddis, and the story we’re about to hear may sound familiar to you!  Jesus is about to perform another mighty miracle which really displays His care and compassion for people!

Can you just imagine what it would have been like to see Jesus healing the blind, lame and mute?  No doubt we’d be left amazed, like the crowd we’ll hear about today on Light on the Hill.  You can’t help but be struck with awe as you consider His great compassion and love for people.  Today pastor James Kaddis has a look at the last ten verses in Matthew chapter 15 where Jesus is near the Sea of Galilee up on a mountainside.  And a great crowd has gathered.  People coming to Him with their needs, and Jesus would care for them and heal them.
