But say the word, and my servant will be cured.&nbsp;<strong>8<\/strong>&nbsp;For I too am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under my command. I say to this one, &#8216;Go!&#8217; and he goes; and to another, &#8216;Come!&#8217; and he comes; and to my slave, &#8216;Do this!&#8217; and he does it.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>9<\/strong>&nbsp;Jesus heard this and was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following Him, He said, &#8220;I tell you, I have not found so great a faith even in Israel!&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>10<\/strong>&nbsp;When those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave in good health.&nbsp;<strong>11<\/strong>&nbsp;Soon afterwards He was on His way to a town called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd were traveling with Him.&nbsp;<strong>12<\/strong>&nbsp;Just as He neared the gate of the town, a dead man was being carried out. He was his mother&#8217;s only son, and she was a widow. A large crowd from the city was also with her.&nbsp;<strong>13<\/strong>&nbsp;When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said, &#8220;Don&#8217;t cry.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>14<\/strong>&nbsp;Then He came up and touched the open coffin, and the pallbearers stopped. And He said, &#8220;Young man, I tell you, get up!&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>15<\/strong>&nbsp;The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother.&nbsp;<strong>16<\/strong>&nbsp;Then fear came over everyone, and they glorified God, saying, &#8220;A great prophet has risen among us,&#8221; and &#8220;God has visited His people.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>17<\/strong>&nbsp;This report about Him went throughout Judea and all the vicinity.&nbsp;<strong>18<\/strong>&nbsp;Then John&#8217;s disciples told him about all these things. So John summoned two of his disciples&nbsp;<strong>19<\/strong>&nbsp;and sent them to the Lord, asking, &#8220;Are You the One who is to come, or should we look for someone else?&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>20<\/strong>&nbsp;When the men reached Him, they said, &#8220;John the Baptist sent us to ask You, &#8216;Are You the One who is to come, or should we look for someone else?&#8217; &#8221;&nbsp;<strong>21<\/strong>&nbsp;At that time Jesus healed many people of diseases, plagues, and evil spirits, and He granted sight to many blind people.&nbsp;<strong>22<\/strong>&nbsp;He replied to them, &#8220;Go and report to John the things you have seen and heard: The blind receive their sight, the lame walk, those with skin diseases are healed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have the good news preached to them.&nbsp;<strong>23<\/strong>&nbsp;And anyone who is not offended because of Me is blessed.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>24<\/strong>&nbsp;After John&#8217;s messengers left, He began to speak to the crowds about John: &#8220;What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?&nbsp;<strong>25<\/strong>&nbsp;What then did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft robes? Look, those who are splendidly dressed and live in luxury are in royal palaces.&nbsp;<strong>26<\/strong>&nbsp;What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a prophet.&nbsp;<strong>27<\/strong>&nbsp;This is the one it is written about: Look, I am sending My messenger ahead of You; he will prepare Your way before You.&nbsp;<strong>28<\/strong>&nbsp;I tell you, among those born of women no one is greater than John, but the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>29<\/strong>&nbsp;(And when all the people, including the tax collectors, heard this, they acknowledged God&#8217;s way of righteousness, because they had been baptized with John&#8217;s baptism.&nbsp;<strong>30<\/strong>&nbsp;But since the Pharisees and experts in the law had not been baptized by him, they rejected the plan of God for themselves.)&nbsp;<strong>31<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8220;To what then should I compare the people of this generation, and what are they like?&nbsp;<strong>32<\/strong>&nbsp;They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to each other: We played the flute for you, but you didn&#8217;t dance; we sang a lament, but you didn&#8217;t weep!&nbsp;<strong>33<\/strong>&nbsp;For John the Baptist did not come eating bread or drinking wine, and you say, &#8216;He has a demon!&#8217;&nbsp;<strong>34<\/strong>&nbsp;The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, &#8216;Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!&#8217;&nbsp;<strong>35<\/strong>&nbsp;Yet wisdom is vindicated by all her children.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>36<\/strong>&nbsp;Then one of the Pharisees invited Him to eat with him. He entered the Pharisee&#8217;s house and reclined at the table.&nbsp;<strong>37<\/strong>&nbsp;And a woman in the town who was a sinner found out that Jesus was reclining at the table in the Pharisee&#8217;s house. She brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil&nbsp;<strong>38<\/strong>&nbsp;and stood behind Him at His feet, weeping, and began to wash His feet with her tears. She wiped His feet with the hair of her head, kissing them and anointing them with the fragrant oil.&nbsp;<strong>39<\/strong>&nbsp;When the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he said to himself, &#8220;This man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what kind of woman this is who is touching Him-she&#8217;s a sinner!&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>40<\/strong>&nbsp;Jesus replied to him, &#8220;Simon, I have something to say to you.&#8221; &#8220;Teacher,&#8221; he said, &#8220;say it.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>41<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8220;A creditor had two debtors. One owed 500 denarii, and the other 50.&nbsp;<strong>42<\/strong>&nbsp;Since they could not pay it back, he graciously forgave them both. So, which of them will love him more?&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>43<\/strong>&nbsp;Simon answered, &#8220;I suppose the one he forgave more.&#8221; &#8220;You have judged correctly,&#8221; He told him.&nbsp;<strong>44<\/strong>&nbsp;Turning to the woman, He said to Simon, &#8220;Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she, with her tears, has washed My feet and wiped them with her hair.&nbsp;<strong>45<\/strong>&nbsp;You gave Me no kiss, but she hasn&#8217;t stopped kissing My feet since I came in.&nbsp;<strong>46<\/strong>&nbsp;You didn&#8217;t anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with fragrant oil.&nbsp;<strong>47<\/strong>&nbsp;Therefore I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven; that&#8217;s why she loved much. But the one who is forgiven little, loves little.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>48<\/strong>&nbsp;Then He said to her, &#8220;Your sins are forgiven.&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>49<\/strong>&nbsp;Those who were at the table with Him began to say among themselves, &#8220;Who is this man who even forgives sins?&#8221;&nbsp;<strong>50<\/strong>&nbsp;And He said to the woman, &#8220;Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.&#8221;<br><br>I want to zero in on the question that John the Baptist sends via his messengers.&nbsp; It always bugged me.&nbsp; I couldn&#8217;t understand why John would be asking this question.&nbsp; I mean, he was Jesus&#8217; cousin&#8230;he ushered Jesus into His ministry&#8230;he&nbsp;<strong><em>knew<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp; who Jesus was.&nbsp; It seemed so random.&nbsp; But MacArthur has a study note that makes me look at this a different way.&nbsp; We all need encouragement.&nbsp; Look at the world thru John&#8217;s eyes&#8230;he had been thrown into prison and Jesus was running into a lot of opposition, especially from the religious leaders.&nbsp; Maybe he was thinking the way I do sometimes&#8230;like, wait!&nbsp; This was supposed to fix everything&#8230;to right all the wrongs in the world.&nbsp; And it feels like it&#8217;s getting worse.&nbsp; Do you ever feel like that?&nbsp; I think John just needed some encouragement.&nbsp; And Jesus didn&#8217;t just send the messengers back with a report of the good things happening. He used the exact words which were prophesied by Isaiah 700 years before, which would have spoken to John&#8217;s heart on a whole other level.&nbsp; Isn&#8217;t that just like Jesus?&nbsp; Let&#8217;s pray.&nbsp; Lord, thank You so much that You don&#8217;t admonish us or make us feel bad for needing some encouragement.&nbsp; Thank You that we can always come to You with what doesn&#8217;t make sense to us, trusting that You will show us what we can&#8217;t see.&nbsp; In Your precious name we pray, Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Thank you for joining me here today.&nbsp; I pray God will grow in you what has been planted and watered here.&nbsp; In this time of unprecedented struggle worldwide, we can look to God for guidance and comfort.&nbsp; Be sensitive to those in your circle of influence who need a word of encouragement and invite them to join us.&nbsp; If you like this show, it would be great if you give it a five-star review.&nbsp; Don&#8217;t forget to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.&nbsp; See you right here tomorrow.&nbsp; Be well!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Show Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Awesome Video of&nbsp;<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=y2tha7ogpec\" target=\"_blank\">Solomon\u2019s Temple<\/a><\/li><li><strong>These will help!<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bibleproject.com\/explore\/book-overviews\/\" target=\"_blank\">Overview videos<\/a>&nbsp;of all books of the Bible<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/liftinghervoice.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Visit my website<\/strong><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ldpbaptistchurch.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Visit my church<\/strong><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/hansmarkusfrei.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Visit The German Shepherd<\/strong><\/a><\/li><li><strong>Find me on <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/joy.blantonmiller\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a><strong>,&nbsp; <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/joy_blantonmiller\/?hl=en\"><strong>Instagram<\/strong><\/a><strong> and <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LiftingHerVoice\"><strong>Twitter<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bible Study Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1433648091\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1433648091&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=liftinghervoi-20&amp;linkId=97e79884a53dca767c6ee4de686ea143\">CSB Study Bible<\/a> \u2013 Hardcover or Kindle!<\/li><li>The Bible Project\u2019s\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLH0Szn1yYNee1eTBU01ZjogtYufHnO0QE\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Bible Basics<\/strong><\/a><strong> \u2013 <em>Free<\/em>!<\/strong><\/li><li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianbook.com\/page\/bibles?event=AFF&amp;p=1210979\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Every Bible You Could Ever Want!<\/strong><\/a><\/li><li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/biblehub.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>The Bible Hub<\/strong><\/a><strong> \u2013 <em>Free<\/em>!<\/strong><\/li><li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.biblestudytools.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Bible Study Tools<\/strong><\/a><strong> \u2013 <em>Free<\/em>!<\/strong><\/li><li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thebibleproject.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>The Bible Project<\/strong><\/a><strong>&#8211; <em>Free<\/em>!<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Want to use your tablet for Bible reading?
