Acrylic Art Is Fun No. III

Jesus! Teacher, Healer, Miracle Worker--Our KingHis ministry was well underway. For those with a heart to receive, His identity was clear. Jesus was the long-awaited Messiah who had come to save the Jewish people and establish God's Kingdom. But He seemed to turn everything upside down. Nothing was as expected. He was healing people, teaching in parables, casting out demons, and doing miracles of all kinds. He showed power over the wind and waves and even forgave people's sins; something reserved for God alone.Jesus chose twelve disciples; men who left behind their professions, families, and lifestyles to closely follow Him. They were eyewitnesses to His power, authority, and unrivaled compassion. Jesus was preparing them for purposes that they didn't understand. For the Son of Man would first have to suffer before glory would come. The kingdom they all learned about and anticipated was coming, but they had no idea what had to take place before it was established. Jesus knew. Little by little, Jesus shared the details of the future with His disciples. They struggled to understand principles and truths that stretched beyond man's understanding to a foundation built on faith in Him. It would all become clearer in the weeks ahead, but for now, they were simply to sit at His feet, watch, and take it all in while learning what it looked like to be a follower of Jesus. In Matthew chapters 10-20 we will see critics rise up against Him. Jewish leaders plot to destroy Him and discredit His ministry, and many people reject Him. But His purpose will not be deterred. He came to save the lost and bring forgiveness to all people who believe in Him. He will do just that!Do you know Jesus? He desires to be your King, Healer, Redeemer, and miracle worker. Do you trust Him, and will you follow Him in the unknowns and storms of life? Do you believe He will provide for your needs? In Matthew chapters 10-20, you will learn that the same Jesus who reached out to the hurting, reaches you to you. Join us in this eleven-week verse-by-verse study of Jesus' earthly ministry: the call of the disciples, His teaching in parables, His transfiguration, and His last turn from Jericho into Jerusalem as the cross comes into clearer focus.Volume 2 of Delighting in the King of Kings can be done after the completion of volume 1, but it can also be used as a stand-alone study.

Jesus! The Messiah. Our King. Immanuel--God With us!The Jewish people had been waiting for their Messiah to come for a very long time. The hope of His arrival burned deep inside of them. They knew the Scriptures promised He would set up a new kingdom in Israel. He would deliver the Jewish people from the oppressive Roman rule and would rebuild the kingdom of Israel to its former glory under King David. The Jewish people had studied the Scriptures for years. The ancient prophets had given them clues of what to look for in the Messiah, the Anointed One of God, to prove His identity.Yet, with all they knew from Scripture, God had been silent with His people for the last 400 years, and life had grown quite difficult for the Jewish people. To make matters worse, an elite religious leadership had risen out of the Jewish people who had been legislating God's Word through burdensome man-made rules and traditions. Many of the Jewish people had become weary in their waiting. Would He really come to save them? Would they recognize Him? What would His kingdom look like? Despite all they knew from Scripture, many of the Jews failed to recognize Jesus when He came. From the time of His birth in Bethlehem, to his upbringing in Nazareth, and then to Galilee where He began showing God's power by healing the people--many of His own rejected Him as the Messiah. Who was this man named Jesus who sat with sinners, talked with the Gentiles, and even healed a leper with just a touch of His hand? Above all, who was this Jesus who claimed He could forgive sins; a power reserved for God Himself?The first nine chapters of Matthew will prove Jesus' identity and authority as God's Son, our Messiah--the King of Kings. Matthew will give us a front row seat to His entrance into this world, His healing power, and His teachings. From the moment He took His first breath, Satan was out to destroy Him. For Satan knew who He was and what He'd do for all mankind. Do you know Him? He is our Healer, our Redeemer, our Forgiver, and our awaited Savior, the Messiah Jesus! He is the King of Kings for the Jews, the Gentiles, and for you! Join us as we study the first nine chapters of Matthew through this verse-by-verse, nine-week Bible study: Delighting in the King of Kings!

Painting with Brenda Harris, Volume 4: Gorgeous Gardens

Jesus! Savior, Redeemer, Risen Lord—Eternal King!Crowds of people had been following Jesus throughout Galilee, Judea, and Jericho. They watched Him heal the broken, be merciful to outcasts, preach of God’s kingdom, and most recently, raise Lazarus from the dead. Is this Jesus the Messiah? Is He the One who would bring peace and deliverance to the nation of Israel while ushering in God’s kingdom? Some believed, many questioned, but the religious rulers sought to discredit and kill Him. One week before His death, Jesus rode into Jerusalem as a humble King of peace. Crowds of people stood by crying, “Save now, Son of David!” But His deliverance would not be temporal, it would be eternal. He would not release the Jews from the Roman oppression at that time but would conquer all evil. The very peace that defined Jesus would be the peace He would put in the hearts of those who believed Him to be the Messiah. Determined to make Him King, the people shouted His praise and adulation. But seeing the cross in the distance, Jesus knew He would not receive the heavenly crown until He wore the earthly crown of thorns put upon Him by the people. Jesus’ method, timing, and the meaning of His entrance were all prophesied long before. Jesus knew that His entry into Jerusalem would lead the way to His triumphant resurrection from the dead. The initial shouts of praise would quickly turn to shouts of crucifixion just days later. The chant of “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest,” would turn to “Crucify Him.” Without rightful cause, the religious leaders, Roman government, and the people would condemn Jesus to death on the cross. During Passover, Jesus, the perfect Lamb of God, would be killed for the sins of the people. However, the cross couldn’t destroy Him, the tomb couldn’t hold Him, and three days later Jesus would be raised to life as our risen Lord and eternal King. He is the King of kings and Lord of lords. He is the Messiah, the One prophesied to take away the sins of the world, redeeming each one who believes in Him and saving us from our sins. His kingdom is now in the hearts of His people, and His eternal kingdom is coming with His return. Join us in this seven-week verse-by-verse study of Jesus’ final entrance into Jerusalem and His road to Calvary. Volume 3 of Delighting in the King of Kings can be done in conjunction with volume 1 and 2, or it can be used as a stand-alone study.
