Hello, and welcome
to His Words Are Life.
00:00:16.59\00:00:18.34
I'm Kelly Mowrer and
today we'll be reading
00:00:18.37\00:00:20.53
from the Gospel of Luke
in the King James version.
00:00:20.56\00:00:22.75
The last time we read, there was
the story of how Jesus' mother
00:00:22.78\00:00:27.34
and brothers came to see him.
And some people came in to tell
00:00:27.37\00:00:31.17
Jesus that his family
was waiting outside and Jesus
00:00:31.20\00:00:34.68
answered, My family are those
who hear my words and do them.
00:00:34.71\00:00:38.70
And I thought, often of
the prayer we pray together
00:00:38.73\00:00:42.45
as we begin to read that the
word will take root in our heart
00:00:42.48\00:00:45.48
we will be come God's
family by both hearing the word
00:00:45.51\00:00:48.66
and doing it.
Let's pray together now.
00:00:48.69\00:00:50.26
Dear Father, thank you that
we can be the sons and daughters
00:00:50.29\00:00:54.83
of God through the blood
of Jesus. And that by hearing
00:00:54.86\00:00:58.66
your Word and by doing
it, we will be your family.
00:00:58.69\00:01:01.76
Please keep us now as we
study this Word together.
00:01:01.79\00:01:05.84
Keep our hearts and send the
Holy Spirit to give us wisdom.
00:01:05.87\00:01:08.87
Thank you so
much. We love you. Amen.
00:01:08.90\00:01:12.26
I'm reading in the gospel
of Luke, chapter 8 and starting
00:01:12.29\00:01:17.18
with verse 30. Jesus has
just come ashore and been met by
00:01:17.21\00:01:21.09
a man possessed by devils.
- And Jesus asked him saying,
00:01:21.12\00:01:25.64
What is thy name? And he
answered, Legion, because
00:01:25.67\00:01:30.68
many devils were entered
into him. And they besought him
00:01:30.71\00:01:34.11
that he would not command
them to go out into the deep.
00:01:34.14\00:01:36.60
And there was there an herd
of many swine, feeding on the
00:01:36.63\00:01:40.29
mountain. And they besought
him that he would suffer them
00:01:40.32\00:01:43.70
to enter into them.
And he suffered them.
00:01:43.73\00:01:46.69
Then went the devils out of the
man and entered into the swine
00:01:46.72\00:01:50.81
and the herd ran violently down
a steep place into the lake,
00:01:50.84\00:01:54.29
and were choked. When they
that fed them saw what was done,
00:01:54.32\00:01:58.32
they fled, and went and told it
in the city and in the country.
00:01:58.35\00:02:02.42
Then they went out to see what
was done; and came to Jesus,
00:02:02.45\00:02:07.06
and found the man, out of
whom the devils were departed,
00:02:07.09\00:02:09.92
sitting at the feet of Jesus,
clothed and in his right mind:
00:02:09.95\00:02:14.44
and they were afraid. They
also which saw it told them
00:02:14.47\00:02:19.03
by what means he that
was possessed of the devils
00:02:19.06\00:02:21.97
was healed. Then the
whole multitude of the country
00:02:22.00\00:02:25.44
of the Gadarenes round about
besought him to depart from
00:02:25.47\00:02:28.90
them; for they were taken with
great fear: and he went up into
00:02:28.93\00:02:32.93
the ship, and returned back
again. Now the man out of whom
00:02:32.96\00:02:37.85
the devils were departed
besought him that he might
00:02:37.88\00:02:41.40
be with him: but Jesus sent him
away, saying, Return to thine
00:02:41.43\00:02:46.52
own house, and shew how great
things God hath done unto thee.
00:02:46.55\00:02:51.79
And he went his way,
and published throughout the
00:02:51.82\00:02:55.66
whole city how great
things Jesus had done unto him.
00:02:55.69\00:02:59.22
And it came to pass, that when
Jesus was returned, the people
00:02:59.25\00:03:04.05
gladly received him: for
they were all waiting for him.
00:03:04.08\00:03:07.85
And behold, there came a man
named Jairus, and he was a ruler
00:03:07.88\00:03:12.54
of the synagogue: and he
fell down at Jesus' feet,
00:03:12.57\00:03:15.23
and besought him that he
would come into his house:
00:03:15.26\00:03:17.75
for he had one only daughter,
about twelve years of age,
00:03:17.78\00:03:21.73
and she lay a-dying. But as
he went the people thronged him.
00:03:21.76\00:03:26.54
And a woman having an issue
of blood twelve years, which had
00:03:26.57\00:03:31.13
spent all her living
upon physicians, neither could
00:03:31.16\00:03:34.42
be healed of any, came behind
him, and touched the border
00:03:34.45\00:03:38.65
of his garment: and immediately
her issue of blood stanched.
00:03:38.68\00:03:42.97
And Jesus said, Who touched me?
When all denied, Peter and they
00:03:43.00\00:03:48.61
that were with him said, Master,
the multitude throng thee and
00:03:48.64\00:03:52.53
press thee, and sayest thou,
Who touched me: and Jesus said,
00:03:52.56\00:03:56.53
Somebody hath touched me: for
I perceive that virtue is gone
00:03:56.56\00:04:00.32
out of me. And when the woman
saw that she was not hid, she
00:04:00.35\00:04:04.56
came trembling, and falling down
before him, she declared unto
00:04:04.59\00:04:08.78
him before all the people for
what cause she had touched him,
00:04:08.81\00:04:12.93
and how she was healed
immediately. And he said
00:04:12.96\00:04:16.22
unto her, Daughter, be of good
comfort: thy faith hath made
00:04:16.25\00:04:20.26
thee whole; go in
peace. While he yet spake,
00:04:20.29\00:04:24.53
there cometh one from
the ruler of the synagogue's
00:04:24.56\00:04:27.64
house, saying to
him, Thy daughter is dead;
00:04:27.67\00:04:30.45
trouble not the Master. But when
Jesus heard it, he answered him
00:04:30.48\00:04:34.74
saying, Fear not: believe only,
and she shall be made whole.
00:04:34.77\00:04:39.51
And when he came into the house,
he suffered no man to go in,
00:04:39.54\00:04:43.49
save Peter, and James, and John,
and the father and the mother
00:04:43.52\00:04:46.65
of the maiden. And all wept,
and bewailed her: but he said,
00:04:46.68\00:04:51.89
Weep not; she is not dead,
but sleepeth. And they laughed
00:04:51.92\00:04:56.06
him to scorn, knowing that she
was dead, and he put them all
00:04:56.09\00:04:59.68
out and took her by the hand,
and called, saying, Maid, arise.
00:04:59.71\00:05:03.84
And her spirit came again, and
she arose straightway: and he
00:05:03.87\00:05:08.99
commanded to give her meat.
And her parents were astonished:
00:05:09.02\00:05:13.44
but he charged them that they
should tell no man what was done
00:05:13.47\00:05:17.60
I'm reading in the
gospel of Luke, chapter 9.
00:05:17.63\00:05:21.42
Then he called his 12 disciples
together, and gave them power
00:05:21.45\00:05:26.05
and authority over all
devils, and to cure diseases.
00:05:26.08\00:05:29.70
And he sent them to preach the
kingdom of God, and to heal the
00:05:29.73\00:05:33.57
sick. And he said unto them,
Take nothing for your journey,
00:05:33.60\00:05:36.92
neither staves, nor script,
neither bread, neither money
00:05:36.95\00:05:40.16
neither have two coats apiece.
And whatsoever house ye enter
00:05:40.19\00:05:44.29
into, there abide, and thence
depart. And whosoever will
00:05:44.32\00:05:49.04
not receive you, when ye go out
of that city, shake off the very
00:05:49.07\00:05:53.23
dust from your feet for
a testimony against them.
00:05:53.26\00:05:56.18
And they departed, and went
through the towns, preaching
00:05:56.21\00:06:00.38
the gospel, and
healing every where.
00:06:00.41\00:06:02.32
Now Herod the tetrarch heard
of all that was done by him:
00:06:02.35\00:06:06.74
and he was perplexed, because
that it was said of some, that
00:06:06.77\00:06:09.73
John was risen from the dead;
And of some, that Elias had
00:06:09.76\00:06:13.31
appeared; and of others,
that one of the old prophets
00:06:13.34\00:06:15.34
was risen again. And Herod said,
John have I beheaded: but who
00:06:15.37\00:06:20.01
is this, of whom I hear
such things? And he desired to
00:06:20.04\00:06:23.80
see him. And the apostles, when
they were returned, told him all
00:06:23.83\00:06:28.55
that they had done. And he took
them, and went aside privately
00:06:28.58\00:06:32.79
into a desert place belonging
to the city called Bethsaida.
00:06:32.82\00:06:37.66
And the people, when they knew
it followed him: and he received
00:06:37.69\00:06:42.03
them and spake unto them of the
kingdom of God, and healed them
00:06:42.06\00:06:45.44
that had need of healing. And
when the day began to wear away
00:06:45.47\00:06:49.26
then came the twelve, and said
unto him, Send the multitude
00:06:49.29\00:06:53.37
away that they may go into the
towns, and country round about
00:06:53.40\00:06:57.08
and lodge and get victuals: for
we are here in a desert place.
00:06:57.11\00:07:01.28
But he said unto them, Give
ye them to eat. And they said,
00:07:01.31\00:07:06.97
We have no more but five loaves
and two fishes; except we should
00:07:07.00\00:07:11.22
go and buy meat for all
this people. For they were about
00:07:11.25\00:07:14.50
five thousand men. And he said
to his disciples, Make them sit
00:07:14.53\00:07:19.33
down by fifties in a
company. And they did so,
00:07:19.36\00:07:22.72
and made them all sit down.
Then he took the five loaves
00:07:22.75\00:07:26.71
and the two fishes, and looking
up to heaven, he blessed them,
00:07:26.74\00:07:29.95
and brake, and gave to the
disciples to set before the
00:07:29.98\00:07:33.24
multitude. And they did
eat, and were all filled:
00:07:33.27\00:07:36.74
and there was taken up of
the fragments that remained to
00:07:36.77\00:07:40.75
them twelve baskets. And it came
to pass, as was alone praying,
00:07:40.78\00:07:46.75
his disciples were with
him: and he asked them, saying,
00:07:46.78\00:07:49.77
Whom say the people that
I am? They answering said,
00:07:49.80\00:07:54.25
John the Baptist; but some
say, Elias; and others say,
00:07:54.28\00:07:57.81
that one of the old prophets is
risen again. He said unto them,
00:07:57.84\00:08:02.09
But whom say ye that I
am? Peter answering said,
00:08:02.12\00:08:07.01
The Christ of God. And
he straightly charged them,
00:08:07.04\00:08:11.15
and commanded them to
tell no man that thing; saying,
00:08:11.18\00:08:14.91
the Son of man must suffer
many things, and be rejected
00:08:14.94\00:08:18.77
of the elders and chief priests
and scribes, and be slain,
00:08:18.80\00:08:22.72
and be raised the third
day. And he said to them all,
00:08:22.75\00:08:26.21
If any man will come
after me, let him deny himself,
00:08:26.24\00:08:29.71
and take up his cross daily, and
follow me. For whosoever will
00:08:29.74\00:08:33.64
save his life shall lose it:
but whosoever will lose his life
00:08:33.67\00:08:37.69
for my sake, the same shall save
it. For what is a man advantaged
00:08:37.72\00:08:42.21
if he gain the whole world, and
lose himself, or be cast away?
00:08:42.24\00:08:45.70
For whosoever shall be ashamed
of me and of my words, of him
00:08:45.73\00:08:50.73
shall the Son of man be ashamed,
when he shall come in his own
00:08:50.76\00:08:54.18
glory, and in his
Father's and of the holy angels.
00:08:54.21\00:08:57.24
But I tell you of a truth,
there be some standing here,
00:08:57.27\00:09:01.36
which shall not taste of death,
till they see the kingdom of God
00:09:01.39\00:09:05.12
And it came to pass about
an 8 days after these sayings,
00:09:05.15\00:09:10.02
he took Peter and John and James
and went up into a mountain
00:09:10.05\00:09:13.71
to pray. And as he prayed,
the fashion of his countenance
00:09:13.74\00:09:18.04
was altered, and his raiment
was white and glistering.
00:09:18.07\00:09:21.83
And, behold, there
talked with him two men,
00:09:21.86\00:09:24.84
which were Moses and Elias: Who
appeared in glory, and spake of
00:09:24.87\00:09:29.77
his decease which he
should accomplish at Jerusalem.
00:09:29.80\00:09:32.73
But Peter and they that were
with him were heavy with sleep.
00:09:32.76\00:09:38.06
and when they were awake, they
saw his glory, and the two men
00:09:38.09\00:09:42.17
that stood with
him. And it came to pass,
00:09:42.20\00:09:45.15
as they departed from him,
Peter said unto Jesus, Master,
00:09:45.18\00:09:49.62
it is good for us to be here:
and let us make 3 tabernacles;
00:09:49.65\00:09:53.27
one for thee, and one
for Moses, and one for Elias:
00:09:53.30\00:09:56.83
not knowing what he said. While
he thus spake there came a cloud
00:09:56.86\00:10:02.59
and overshadowed them: and
they feared as they entered
00:10:02.62\00:10:06.39
into the cloud. And there came a
voice out of the cloud, saying,
00:10:06.42\00:10:09.87
This is my beloved Son: hear
him. And when the voice was past
00:10:09.98\00:10:15.56
Jesus was found alone. And they
kept it close, and told no man
00:10:15.60\00:10:20.54
in those days any of those
things which they had seen.
00:10:20.57\00:10:23.62
And it came to pass,
that on the next day,
00:10:23.65\00:10:26.63
when they were come down from
the hill, much people met him.
00:10:26.66\00:10:30.13
And, behold, a man of the
company cried out, saying,
00:10:30.16\00:10:34.26
Master, I beseech
thee, look upon my son:
00:10:34.29\00:10:37.48
for he is mine only child.
And lo, a spirit taketh him,
00:10:37.51\00:10:41.88
and he suddenly crieth out; and
it teareth him that he foameth
00:10:41.91\00:10:45.77
again, and bruising him
hardly departeth from him.
00:10:45.80\00:10:49.01
And I besought thy disciples to
cast him out; and they could not
00:10:49.04\00:10:53.22
And Jesus answering
said, O faithless and perverse
00:10:53.25\00:10:58.18
generation, how long shall
I be with you, and suffer you?
00:10:58.21\00:11:01.75
Bring thy son hither. And as
he was yet a-coming the devil
00:11:01.78\00:11:07.26
threw him down, and tare him.
And Jesus rebuked the unclean
00:11:07.29\00:11:11.85
spirit, and healed the
child, and delivered him again
00:11:11.88\00:11:15.06
to his father. And they were
all amazed at the mighty power
00:11:15.09\00:11:19.20
of God. But while they wondered
every one at all things which
00:11:19.23\00:11:23.54
Jesus did, he said unto his
disciples, Let these sayings
00:11:23.57\00:11:28.00
sink down into your ears for the
Son of man shall be delivered
00:11:28.03\00:11:32.39
into the hands of men. But
they understood not this saying,
00:11:32.42\00:11:36.52
and it was hid from them,
that they perceived it not:
00:11:36.55\00:11:39.68
and they feared to ask him
of that saying. Then there arose
00:11:39.71\00:11:44.16
a reasoning among them, which
of them should be greatest.
00:11:44.19\00:11:47.63
And Jesus, perceiving
the thought of their heart,
00:11:47.66\00:11:51.62
took a child, and set him
by him. and said unto them,
00:11:51.65\00:11:55.99
Whosoever shall
receive this child in my name
00:11:56.02\00:11:59.41
receiveth me: and whosoever
shall receive me receiveth him
00:11:59.44\00:12:04.38
that sent me: for he
that is least among you all,
00:12:04.41\00:12:07.88
the same shall be great.
And John answered and said,
00:12:07.91\00:12:12.43
Master, we saw one
casting out devils in thy name:
00:12:12.46\00:12:16.01
and we forbad him, because
he followeth not with us.
00:12:16.04\00:12:18.76
And Jesus said unto
him, Forbid him not:
00:12:18.79\00:12:22.44
for he that is not against us
is for us. And it came to pass,
00:12:22.47\00:12:27.86
when the time was come
that he should be received up,
00:12:27.89\00:12:30.28
he steadfastly set his
face to go to Jerusalem,
00:12:30.31\00:12:34.37
and sent messengers
before his face: and they went,
00:12:34.40\00:12:37.83
and entered into a village
of the Samaritans, to make ready
00:12:37.86\00:12:41.33
for him. And they did not
receive him, because his face
00:12:41.36\00:12:44.83
was as though he
would go to Jerusalem.
00:12:44.86\00:12:47.23
And when his disciples, James
and John, saw this, they said,
00:12:47.26\00:12:51.61
Lord, wilt thou that we command
fire to come down from heaven,
00:12:51.64\00:12:55.96
and consume them, even as Elias
did? But he turned, and rebuked
00:12:55.99\00:13:00.74
them and said, Ye know not
what manner of spirit ye are of.
00:13:00.77\00:13:04.89
For the son of man is not
come to destroy men's lives,
00:13:04.92\00:13:09.20
but to save them. And
they went to another village.
00:13:09.23\00:13:12.77
And it came to pass,
that, as they went in the way,
00:13:12.80\00:13:16.11
a certain man said unto
him, Lord, I will follow thee
00:13:16.14\00:13:20.04
whithersoever thou
goest. And Jesus said unto him.
00:13:20.07\00:13:23.24
Foxes have holes, and
birds of the air have nests;
00:13:23.27\00:13:26.73
but the Son of man hath
not where to lay his head.
00:13:26.76\00:13:30.00
And he said unto
another, Follow me. But he said,
00:13:30.03\00:13:35.01
Lord, suffer me first
to go and bury my father.
00:13:35.04\00:13:37.82
Jesus said unto him, Let
the dead bury their dead:
00:13:37.85\00:13:41.72
but go thou and
preach the kingdom of God.
00:13:41.75\00:13:44.66
And another also said,
Lord, I will follow thee;
00:13:44.69\00:13:48.55
but let me first go bid
them farewell, which are at home
00:13:48.58\00:13:51.65
at my house. And Jesus said unto
him, No man, having put his hand
00:13:51.68\00:13:56.21
to the plough, and looking back
is fit for the kingdom of God.
00:13:56.24\00:14:00.30
I'm reading in the
gospel of Luke, chapter 10.
00:14:00.33\00:14:03.84
After these things the Lord
appointed other seventy also
00:14:03.87\00:14:08.58
and sent them two and two
before his face into every city
00:14:08.61\00:14:13.35
and place, whither
he himself would come.
00:14:13.38\00:14:16.15
Therefore said he unto them,
The harvest truly is great,
00:14:16.18\00:14:19.64
but the labourers are
few: pray ye therefore the Lord
00:14:19.67\00:14:23.64
of the harvest, that he
would send forth labourers
00:14:23.67\00:14:26.22
into his harvest. - Thank
