Luke 8:19-21 ~ hear the Word of God

Luke 8:19-21

19 Then his mother and his brothers came to him, but they could not reach him (Jesus)  because of the crowd. 20 And he was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see you.” 21 But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”


If Mary and James and Joses and Simon and Jude had been doing the Will of God, they would have fully reached Jesus and His Heart. A point we should well consider.

Jesus said even the sparrows receive God's Mercy, but not Mary, James, Joses, Simon and Jude on that day.

Micah 6:8
He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.





The Scriptures are filled with examples of God's Grace, His Mercy and Acts of God.

It's rare to see an example of defined, "NO." This is a very definite answer to human thinking. Approaching Jesus made this prayer. The prayer is rejected.

Apparently, lives well lived like Mary and James and Joses and Simon and Jude do not reach past the Will of God Himself. God is always God. His Good Will Prevails.

When we live hearing the Word of God and doing the Word of God, we know the Power of Scripture and the Power of God.

John 15

15 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.

2 Every branch in me
that does not bear fruit he takes away,

and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

3 Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned.

7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 By this my Father is glorified

Abba, Father,

Let us live in You and abide in You and know The Power of Your Word and Your Glory.

We ask according to Your Will. In the Holy Name of Jesus, let us have Your Good Will be done on earth as it is Heaven!

Give us This Day! Today let us know Your voice. Open our Heart.

Our Daily Bread. Making good choices in Jesus. For the portion of Bread tenderly cared for and growing, help this tender portion to be in Your Care and Love. For the dry goods portion of Bread, that we are Your good Stewart of Your Gifts in our Lives.

Forgive and remember our sin no more. Heal our diseases and iniquities.

Help us to forgive others exactly as You'd this done.

Lead us far from temptation. Deliver us from evil.

This is in Your Kingdom, Your Powar and Your Glory.

In Jesus we ask. Amen.

Galatians 5:1

For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore
