The Workers in the Vineyard

1 “The kingdom from heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 After agreeing to pay the workers one denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 When he went out about nine o’clock, he saw others standing in the marketplace without work. 4 He told them, ‘You go into the vineyard, too, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5 So off they went. He went out again about noon and about three o’clocke and did the same thing. 6 About five o’clock he went out and found some others standing around. He asked them, ‘Why are you standing here all day long without work?’ 7 They told him, ‘Because no one has hired us.’ He told them, ‘You go into the vineyard as well.’

8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard told his manager, ‘Call the workers and give them their wages, beginning with the last and ending with the first.’ 9 Those who were hired at five o’clock came, and each received a denarius.

10 “When the first came, they thought they would receive more, but each received a denarius as well. 11 When they received it, they began to complain to the landowner, 12 ‘These last fellows worked only one hour, but you paid them the same as us, and we’ve been working all day, enduring the scorching heat!’

13 “But he told one of them, ‘Friend, I’m not treating you unfairly. You did agree with me for a denarius, didn’t you? 14 Take what is yours and go. I want to give this last man as much as I gave you. 15 I am allowed to do what I want with my own money, am I not? Or are you envious because I’m generous?’

16 “In the same way, the last will be first, and the first will be last, because many are called, but few are chosen.”

Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection a Third Time (Mark 10:32-34; Luke 18:31-34)

17 When Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside and told them as they were walking along, 18 “See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the high priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death. 19 Then they will hand him over to unbelievers to be mocked, whipped, and crucified, but on the third day he will be raised.”

The Request of James and John (Mark 10:35-45)

20 Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Jesus with her sons. She bowed down in front of him to ask him for a favor. 21 He asked her, “What do you want?”

She told him, “Promise that in your kingdom these two sons of mine will sit on your right and on your left.”

22 Jesus replied, “You don’t realize what you’re asking. Can you drink from the cup that I’m going to drink from?”

They told him, “We can.”

23 He told them, “You will indeed drink from my cup. But it’s not up to me to grant you a seat at my right hand or at my left. These positions have already been prepared for others by my Father.”

24 When the ten heard this, they became furious with the two brothers. 25 But Jesus called the discipless and said, “You know that the rulers of the unbelievers lord it over them and their superiors act like tyrants over them. 26 That’s not the way it should be among you. Instead, whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave. 28 That’s the way it is with the Son of Man. He did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many people.”

Jesus Heals Two Blind Men (Mark 10:46-52; Luke 18:35-43)

29 As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Jesus. 30 When two blind men who were sitting by the roadside heard that Jesus was passing by, they shouted, “Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David!” 31 When the crowd told them harshly to be silent, they shouted even louder, “Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David!”

32 Jesus stopped and called them, saying, “What do you want me to do for you?”

33 They told him, “Lord, we want to be able to see!” 34 Then Jesus, deeply moved with compassion, touched their eyes, and at once they could see again. So they followed him. — Matthew 20 | International Standard Version (ISV) The International Standard Version of the Holy Bible Copyright © 1995-2014 by ISV Foundation.

MATTHEW S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 20

Wednesday, 3/13/24

SCRIPTURE:

Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes. Immediately they could see, and they followed him. ~ Matthew 20:34

OBSERVATION:

Moved with compassion, Jesus acted...

They didn't have to do anything except answer His question:

"What do you want Me to do...?"

"Open our eyes..."

...and immediately they could see...

...and THEN they followed Him...

APPLICATION:

His question remains the same for me:

What do I want Him to do?

Don't do anything else except:

Answer His question (He knows the answer already, so what's He gonna do? What's He gonna say?)...

Follow Him...

PRAYER:

Healing Father God - forgive my willful blindness to Your Spirit's leading... thank You for opening my eyes to what You are doing in and around me... clear my vision even more to see what else You can do and to surrender my will in same way Jesus did... In His Name, and for Your kingdom's coming...

----

If I may... I have to go a little "old school" here:

Open the eyes of my heart Lord Open the eyes of my heart I want to see you I want to see you To see you high and lifted up Shinin' in the light of Your glory Pour out your power and love As we sing holy, holy, holy Paul Baloche

For Him... for y'all... for y'all's,,,𝖌

<))><

The Parable of the Vineyard Workers (Matthew 20:1-16)

God controls the flow of mercy, not us.

The Workers in the Vineyard, by Rembrandt, 1637 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard. “About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I…

Church notes - 3rd September 2023

3rd John 3:16, 17

Communion Isaiah 53

Sermon Matthew 25:31 - 46

Created for Ministry Ephesians 2:20 You were made to make a contribution, not just to consume.

Ephesians 2:10

Called to Ministry 1 Peter 2:9, 10

Gifted for Ministry 1 Peter 4:10

Commanded to Minister Matthew 20:22 - 26

What do you do about it?

Matthew 16:27

It is important that we meet the physical needs of those around us.

Simple acts of kindness. Things that take the focus off ourselves and onto others.

Made for a mission - to share the Good News with others. John 20:21 Acts 1:8

We're to tell others about God and His role in our lives. To share to Gospel. Luke 8:38, 39

2 Peter 3:9

We need to reach people who are out of our world. Like the Samaritans.

1 Corinthians 9:22

We are tasked to build bridges, not walls.

Is anybody going to be in heaven because of you?

The quality of D&D actual play shows has only steadily increased over time. Every player is better than when they started, every DM is better, every member of each production crew is better, the editing and sound design in the podcasts is better, the encounter design is better, etc… I absolutely love the stuff from 5+ years ago and it’s only a testament to the people involved that they’ve made things better. We’re living at the best possible time for D&D content and there’s enough variety that you can find something to your taste. And that’s just great.

nothing has changed my worldview so thoroughly as Ally calling Zac a word-sniper because I think about it every single time Zac makes a joke because its so true. people were talking about how they wanted to see Matt meet chaos force Emily while dming but there is no one better he could've faced than Sniper Zac. like Brennan said in the AP Zac is the only one who, by barely speaking a sentence, can break the most talented and accomplished improvisers in the world. They can meet a force of chaos and battle it - they are POWERLESS against a sniper

Matthew 20:20-28 – Leadership as Service to Others

Power, authority, and the positions which go with them are to be used for the common good of all persons.

She said, “Grant that one of these two sons of mine may sit at your right and the other at your left in your kingdom.” “You don’t know what you are asking,” Jesus said to…
