VERSE:
And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the
people were astonished at his doctrine: For he taught them as one
having authority, and not as the scribes.
-- Matthew 7:28-29

THOUGHT:
Unlike the teachers of his day, Jesus didn't have to shore up
his teaching with obscure quotes from past teachers. Jesus, the
Word of God, spoke the very words of God. He did and said what the
Father willed. His life and his words had ring of authenticity and
an awareness of power that extend through the ages and beckon us to
his truth. This Jesus, our Teacher and Lord, is different. His
words are powerful. His teachings are true. So his will must be our
passion!
PRAYER:
Holy God, thank you for speaking through your prophets and
through your Scriptures. But, Father, I praise you for speaking
your greatest message in Jesus. As I see the character of his life,
I am drawn to you. As I hear the authenticity in his words, I seek
to humbly obey. Thank you for sending Jesus to be my teacher, my
guide, my Lord, and my Savior. It is in his name, Jesus, that I
pray. Amen.
