Comforting God MATHEW 17: 1-12 1 Friday

Sometimes things may go wrong or in an unexpected way in our life we may be very afraid

but Jesus is always there for us to say DONT AFRAID and to comfort us.

Christ with Good Nature MATHEW 17: 13-27 2 Saturday

Here we can see two beautiful characters of Jesus Christ, 1: A Healer- but we need faith on

him to receive healing (For God, healing a headache and raising a dead, is equal), 2: Always

ready to obey the laws and rules of government.

Vs 20: You have faith, Nothing will be impossible for you

The honor of humbleness MATHEW 18: 1-17 3 Sunday

Jesus loves the children so much that he told only people comparable to children can enter the

heaven but the important word here is HUMBLENESS (vs.4). Those who seek the

blessings of god need to humble themselves. Then Jesus is teaching here to give more

importance to eternal life than our body parts.

Vs 4: Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven

The importance of forgiveness MATHEW 18: 18-35 4 Monday

Forgiveness that is very important before God. He likes the forgiving heart but hates the

bitter heart. If we want His forgiveness in our life, then we need to forgive others. This is the

virtue that He shows us in the cross.

Vs 35: This is how my heavenly Father will treat you unless you forgive your brother from

heart

The Lords Family MATHEW 19: 1-15 5 Tuesday

God made humans as male and female and made them as husband and wife. So after

marriage it is a sin against God to get separated. So let us be careful to obey the God.

joined together, let man not separate

life. You may be rich by the grace of Godbut dont set your heart in it.Seek ye first the

kingdom of God

Vs 26: With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible

Submit in Gods hand MATHEW 20:1-16 7 Thursday

Many times we are comparing ourselves or our deeds with others and murmuring against God

and that is a sin. We are doing here two mistakes: 1) trying to show we are wiser than God. 2)

Trying to show we are better than others. Submit yourselves under the mighty things of God

so that He may exalt you.

Vs 16: So the last will be first, and the first will be last

Fathers Will MATHEW 20:17-34 8 Friday

1) Jesus is again teaching about humbleness from the heart not from the mind 2) His

obedience/submission to His heavenly Father. Everything is done according to His will. 3)

The heartfelt cry of blind and their healing.

Let us give fruits MATHEW 21: 1-22 9 Saturday

Characters of Jesus: 1) He was not only ready to fulfil the wish of the Father but also ready to

fulfil the prophecies of Bible. 2) His love for his Fathers house. 3) His longing for us to bear

fruit. The circumstances in our life may not be favourable but he expects fruits.

Vs 16: From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise

Innocent Heart MATHEW 21: 23-46 10 Sunday

Jesus here talks about the condition of our heart. We may show ourselves very pure and with

great knowledge in bible, but for this same reason Jesus warns Pharisees and Sadducees and

tell them that the sinners may enter into the kingdom of heaven before them.

Vs 31b: the tax collectors are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you

Suitable Garments MATHEW 22: 1-22 11 Monday

Bibles role in our life MATHEW 22: 23-46 12 Tuesday

When Sadducees and Pharisees tried to question and condemn Jesus Christ he answered all

their questions with verses from Bible. If we want to conquer Satan and this world we should

know Bible by heart.

Vs 32: He is not the God of the dead but of the living

Avoid Boasting MATHEW 23: 1-12 13 Wednesday

We should never do things to please men but God alone. If we do things in expectations to

get praise from the people and if we boast before their eyes then we will be humbled but God

exalts only those who humble themselves.

Vs 12: For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be

exalted.

Pure Heart MATHEW 23: 13-39 14 Thursday

in our heart. Our Father in heaven never likes this, so pray to God to clean you in and out.

under her wings, but you were not willing

Scripture which protects us from deception MATHEW 24: 1- 24 15 Friday

ministers of God may turn against scripture and deceive Christians, but the name of the Lord

and verses of the Bible are our true protections against the deception.

Vs 4b: Watch out that no one deceives you

Get Ready MATHEW 24: 25-51 16 Saturday

Jesus discussed to His disciples about the second coming of Jesus Christ. Except our father

no one knows that day and hour. So when anyone says this day or that day will be the end of

the world we should not believe them. But we should be always ready for His coming and

His blessing.

Vs 36: No one knows about the day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but

only the Father.

The life of the Wise MATHEW 25:1-30 17 Sunday

Two sets of people wise and foolish. Do you know children, foolishness and laziness are

sisters? When we read and meditate the Bible we become wise and we know the will of God

and we will be blessed for our obedience to Him.

A Christian who is compassionate to poor MATHEW 25: 31-46 18 Monday

When we give alms to the poor we are giving loan to God himself Neverclose your heartfor the poor. According to the scripture, when we give and help the poor with the

compassionate heart we shall inherit the kingdom of God, but when we close our hearts we

may go to hell.

prepared for you since the creation of the world

Who occupies the first place in life MATHEW 26: 1-19 19 Tuesday

to help you. You will be blessed spiritually and materially in this world.

Sacrifice yourself to do the will of God MATHEW 26: 47-75 21 Thursday

To fulfil the scriptures and obey His Father, Jesus was ready to sacrifice himself. How is our

obedience? Peter betrays Jesus orally. But many times by our actions and thoughts we betray

Jesus. Let our Heavenly Father helps us not to do this.

Vs 56a: But this has all taken place that the writings of the prophets might be fulfilled

The Effect of Words MATHEW 27: 1-31 22 Friday

history of Jews and read). Always be careful about your speech and intentions.

John who humbled himself MARK 1:1-20 25 Sunday

The Leper who teaches a lesson MARK 1: 21-45 26 Monday

desire anything except his health and also he seeks only the will of God (v 40). Children this

is the most desirable and pleasing thing before God.

Vs 41b: I am willing.

Let us glorify the name of God MARK 2: 1-12 27 Wednesday

After Jesus Christ did the miracle people glorified God not Jesus Christ. If u read throughout

not even Jesus Christ. This should happen in our life also, in all our works and deed, God has

to be glorified.

Vs 12b: This amazed everyone and they praised God

Give us the consciousness MARK 2: 13-28 28 Thursday
