Drawing Near: Growing Intimately with God Every Day

TUESDAY, 20 MAY 2025

 

TEXT: Matthew 12:38-45

 

TOPIC: SIGNS AS EVIDENCE OF UNBELIEF

 

In this text, Jesus marveled at the Pharisees’ clamour for signs. Sadly, they had missed the greatest sign of all – His death and resurrection.

Jesus used the metaphor of an empty house to make His point. Man’s heart is like an empty house in which both evil and good can dwell.

So, for it not to invite strange guests, the vacuum must be filled. The only way to keep the old tenant out is to put a new tenant.

Therefore, Jesus made the Pharisees understand that the demands for signs is an evidence of unbelief.

 

QUESTION: Has the demand for signs blindfolded you into missing the greatest sign of all?

 

PRAYER: Oh Lord, please open our eyes and minds so that we do not miss what You are trying to show us. Amen.

Remain Blessed
