The Model Prayer

11Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples."G2532G1096G1722G846G1511G4336G1722G5100G5117G5613G3973G5100G846G3101G2036G4314G846G2962G1321G2248G4336G2531G2491G2532G1321G846G3101 2So He said to them, "When you pray, say: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.G1161G2036G846G3752G4336G3004G2257G3962G3588G1722G3772G37G4675G3686G4675G932G2064G4675G2307G1096G5613G1722G3772G2532G1909G1093 3Give us day by day our daily bread.G1325G2254G2596G2250G2257G1967G740 4And forgive us our sins, For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one."G2532G863G2254G2257G266G1063G846G2532G863G3956G3784G2254G2532G1533G2248G3361G1519G3986G235G4506G2248G575G4190

A Friend Comes at Midnight

5And He said to them, "Which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves;G2532G2036G4314G846G5101G1537G5216G2192G5384G2532G4198G4314G846G3317G2532G2036G846G5384G5531G3427G5140G740 6'for a friend of mine has come to me on his journey, and I have nothing to set before him';G1894G5384G3450G1537G3598G3854G4314G3165G2532G2192G3756G3739G3908G846 7"and he will answer from within and say, 'Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give to you'?G2548G2081G611G2036G2873G3930G3427G3361G2374G2808G2235G2808G2532G3450G3813G1526G3326G1700G1519G2845G3756G1410G450G1325G4671 8"I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs.G3004G5213G1499G1453G3756G1453G1325G846G1223G1511G846G5384G1065G1223G846G335G450G1325G846G3745G5535

Keep Asking, Seeking, Knocking

9"So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.G2504G3004G5213G154G2532G1325G5213G2212G2532G2147G2925G2532G455G5213 10"For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.G1063G3956G154G2983G2532G2212G2147G2532G2925G455 11"If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish?G1161G5207G154G740G5216G3962G5101G1929G3361G846G3037G1499G2486G1929G473G2486G1929G3361G846G3789 12"Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?G2228G2532G1437G154G5609G3361G1929G846G4651 13"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!"G1487G5210G3767G5225G4190G1492G1325G18G1390G5216G5043G4214G3123G1325G3772G3962G1537G1325G40G4151G154G846

A House Divided Cannot Stand

14And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. So it was, when the demon had gone out, that the mute spoke; and the multitudes marveled.G2532G2258G1544G1140G2532G846G2258G2974G1161G1096G1140G1831G2974G2980G2532G3793G2296 15But some of them said, "He casts out demons by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons."G1161G5100G1537G846G2036G1544G1140G1722G954G758G1140 16Others, testing Him, sought from Him a sign from heaven.G1161G2087G3985G2212G3844G846G4592G1537G3772 17But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls.G1161G846G1492G846G1270G2036G846G3956G932G1266G1909G1438G2049G2532G3624G1909G3624G4098 18"If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Because you say I cast out demons by Beelzebub.G1161G1499G4567G1499G1266G1909G1438G4459G2476G846G932G2476G3754G3004G3165G1544G1140G1722G954 19"And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.G1161G1487G1473G1722G954G1544G1140G1722G5101G1544G5216G5207G1544G1223G5124G846G2071G5216G2923 20"But if I cast out demons with the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.G1161G1487G1722G1147G2316G1544G1140G686G932G2316G5348G1909G5209 21"When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace.G3752G2478G2528G5442G833G1438G846G5224G2076G1722G1515 22"But when a stronger than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils.G1161G1875G2478G846G1904G3528G846G142G846G3833G1909G3739G3982G2532G1239G846G4661 23"He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.G5607G3361G3326G1700G2076G2596G1700G2532G4863G3361G3326G1700G4650

An Unclean Spirit Returns

24"When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, 'I will return to my house from which I came.'G3752G169G4151G1831G575G444G1330G1223G504G5117G2212G372G2532G2147G3361G3004G5290G1519G3450G3624G3606G1831 25"And when he comes, he finds it swept and put in order.G2532G2064G2147G4563G2532G2885 26"Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first."G5119G4198G2532G3880G2033G2087G4151G4191G1438G2532G1525G2730G1563G2532G2078G1565G444G1096G5501G4413

Keeping the Word

27And it happened, as He spoke these things, that a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, "Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!"G1161G1096G1722G846G3004G5023G5100G1135G1537G3793G1869G5456G2036G846G3107G2836G941G4571G2532G3149G3739G2337 28But He said, "More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!"G1161G846G2036G3304G3107G191G3056G2316G2532G5442G846

Seeking a Sign

29And while the crowds were thickly gathered together, He began to say, "This is an evil generation. It seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet.G1161G3793G1865G756G3004G3778G2076G4190G1074G1934G4592G2532G1325G3756G4592G1325G846G1508G4592G2495G4396 30"For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation.G1063G2531G2495G1096G4592G3536G3779G2071G2532G5207G444G2071G5026G1074 31"The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.G938G3558G1453G1722G2920G3326G435G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G2064G1537G4009G1093G191G4678G4672G2532G2400G4119G4672G5602 32"The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.G435G3535G450G1722G2920G3326G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G3340G1519G2782G2495G2532G2400G4119G2495G5602

The Lamp of the Body

33"No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.G1161G3762G681G3088G5087G1519G2926G3761G5259G3426G235G1909G3087G2443G3588G1531G991G5338 34"The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness.G3088G4983G2076G3788G3767G1875G4675G3788G5600G573G4675G3650G4983G2532G2076G5460G1161G3752G5600G4190G4675G4983G2532G4652 35"Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness.G4648G3767G5457G3588G1722G4671G2076G3361G4655 36"If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light."G1487G4675G3650G4983G3767G5460G2192G3361G5100G3313G4652G3650G2071G5460G5613G3752G796G3088G5461G4571G5461

Woe to the Pharisees and Lawyers

37And as He spoke, a certain Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. So He went in and sat down to eat.G1161G1722G2980G5100G5330G2065G846G3704G709G3844G846G1161G1525G377 38When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that He had not first washed before dinner.G1161G5330G1492G2296G3754G907G3756G4412G907G4253G712 39Then the Lord said to him, "Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and dish clean, but your inward part is full of greed and wickedness.G1161G2962G2036G4314G846G3568G2511G5210G5330G2511G1855G4221G2532G4094G1161G5216G2081G1073G724G2532G4189 40"Foolish ones! Did not He who made the outside make the inside also?G878G4160G3756G4160G3588G1855G4160G3588G2081G2532 41"But rather give alms of such things as you have; then indeed all things are clean to you.G4133G1325G1654G1751G2532G2400G3956G2076G2513G5213 42"But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass by justice and the love of God. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.G235G3759G5213G5330G3754G586G2238G2532G4076G2532G3956G3001G2532G3928G2920G2532G26G2316G5023G1163G4160G3361G863G2548G863 43"Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces.G3759G5213G5330G3754G25G4410G1722G4864G2532G783G1722G58 44"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like graves which are not seen, and the men who walk over them are not aware of them."G3759G5213G1122G2532G5330G5273G3754G2075G5613G3419G3588G82G2532G444G4043G1883G1492G3756G1492 45Then one of the lawyers answered and said to Him, "Teacher, by saying these things You reproach us also."G1161G611G5100G3544G3004G846G1320G5023G3004G5195G2248G2532 46And He said, "Woe to you also, lawyers! For you load men with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.G1161G2036G3759G5213G2532G3544G3754G5412G444G5413G1419G2532G846G4379G3756G5413G1520G5216G1147 47"Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.G3759G5213G3754G3618G3419G4396G1161G5216G3962G615G846 48"In fact, you bear witness that you approve the deeds of your fathers; for they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs.G686G3140G2532G4909G2041G5216G3962G3754G846G3303G615G846G1161G5210G3618G846G3419 49"Therefore the wisdom of God also said, 'I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute,'G1223G5124G2532G2036G4678G2316G649G1519G846G4396G2532G652G2532G1537G846G615G2532G1559 50"that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation,G2443G129G3956G4396G3588G1632G575G2602G2889G1567G575G5026G1074 51"from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah who perished between the altar and the temple. Yes, I say to you, it shall be required of this generation.G575G129G6G2193G129G2197G3588G622G3342G2379G2532G3624G3483G3004G5213G1567G575G5026G1074 52"Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in you hindered."G3759G5213G3544G3754G142G2807G1108G1525G3756G1525G846G2532G1525G2967 53And as He said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to assail Him vehemently, and to cross-examine Him about many things,G1161G846G3004G5023G4314G846G1122G2532G5330G756G1758G1171G2532G653G846G653G4012G4119 54lying in wait for Him, and seeking to catch Him in something He might say, that they might accuse Him.G1748G846G2532G2212G2340G5100G1537G846G4750G2443G2723G846
