Sermon Description

Luke 11:1-13

• 1 And it came to pass, as he was praying in a certain place, that when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, even as John also taught his disciples. 
• 2 And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Father, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. 
• 3 Give us day by day our daily bread. 
• 4 And forgive us our sins; for we ourselves also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And bring us not into temptation. 
• 5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves; 
• 6 for a friend of mine is come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him; 
• 7 and he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee? 
• 8 I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will arise and give him as many as he needeth. 
• 9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 
• 10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 
• 11 And of which of you that is a father shall his son ask a loaf, and he give him a stone? or a fish, and he for a fish give him a serpent? 
• 12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he give him a scorpion? 
• 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

John 12:1-8

• 1 Jesus therefore six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus raised from the dead. 
• 2 So they made him a supper there: and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of them that sat at meat with him. 
• 3 Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment. 
• 4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, that should betray him, saith, 
• 5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred shillings, and given to the poor? 
• 6 Now this he said, not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and having the bag took away what was put therein. 
• 7 Jesus therefore said, Suffer her to keep it against the day of my burying. 
• 8 For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.

John 1:47-51

• 47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! 
• 48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee. 
• 49 Nathanael answered him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art King of Israel. 
• 50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee underneath the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these. 
• 51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

Mark 12:1,38-44

• 1 And as he went forth out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Teacher, behold, what manner of stones and what manner of buildings! 
• 38 And in his teaching he said, Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and to have salutations in the marketplaces, 
• 39 and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts: 
• 40 they that devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers; these shall receive greater condemnation. 
• 41 And he sat down over against the treasury, and beheld how the multitude cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. 
• 42 And there came a poor widow, and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing. 
• 43 And he called unto him his disciples, and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, This poor widow cast in more than all they that are casting into the treasury: 
• 44 for they all did cast in of their superfluity; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.
