October 10, 2021 PM, Matthew 9:14-26.In this message Pastor Matt leads our continued study in the book of Matthew. The pharisees questioned Jesus why His disciples did not fast. Jesus replied that there is a time for fasting and a time for celebration. While the Lord was with the disciples, he told them that it was not the time to fast but to celebrate. When the Lord ascended to heaven this provided means for the disciples to fast, in private. We see Jesus' miracle of raising a girl from the dead and healing a woman of her severe hemorrhage. The ruler of the daughter who died as well as the woman with the severe hemorrhage had faith that Jesus Christ could heal both. Jesus replied to both people that their faith was strong as recorded in the book of Matthew. Our Scripture reading was found in 1 Chronicles 13:1-14.
