Why did Jesus perform
miracles?
Matthew 8:2
And a leper came to Him and bowed
down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You
are willing, You can make me clean.”
Matthew 8:3
Jesus stretched out His hand and
touched him, saying, “I am willing; be
cleansed.” And immediately his leprosy
was cleansed.
Matthew 8:4
And Jesus said to him, “See that
you tell no one; but go, show yourself to
the priest and present the offering that
Moses commanded, as a testimony to
them.”

And when Jesus entered
Capernaum… (Matthew 8:5)
Matthew 8:10
Now when Jesus heard this, He
marveled and said to those who were
following, “Truly I say to you, I have not
found such great faith with anyone in
Israel.”
Matthew 8:5-6
And
when
Jesus
entered
Capernaum, a centurion came to Him,
imploring Him, 6 and saying, “Lord, my
servant is lying paralyzed at home,
fearfully tormented.”
Matthew 8:7-9
Jesus said to him, “I will come and
heal him.” 8 But the centurion said, “Lord,
I am not worthy for You to come under my
roof, but just say the word, and my
servant will be healed. 9 For I also am a
man under authority, with soldiers under
me; and I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he
goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he
comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he
does it.”
Matthew 8:11-12
“I say to you that many will come
from east and west, and recline at the
table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in
the kingdom of heaven; 12 but the sons of
the kingdom will be cast out into the outer
darkness; in that place there will be
weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
Matthew 8:13
And Jesus said to the centurion,
“Go; it shall be done for you as you have
believed.” And the servant was healed
that very moment.
Matthew 8:14-15
When Jesus came into Peter’s
home, He saw his mother-in-law lying
sick in bed with a fever. 15 He touched her
hand, and the fever left her; and she got
up and waited on Him.
Matthew 8:16-17
When evening came, they brought
to Him many who were demonpossessed; and He cast out the spirits
with a word, and healed all who were ill.
17 This was to fulfill what was spoken
through Isaiah the prophet: “He Himself
took our infirmities and carried away our
diseases.”
Matthew 8:18
Now when Jesus saw a crowd
around Him, He gave orders to depart to
the other side of the sea.
Matthew 8:19-20
Then a scribe came and said to
Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever
You go.” 20 Jesus said to him, “The foxes
have holes and the birds of the air have
nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to
lay His head.”
Matthew 8:21-22
Another of the disciples said to Him,
“Lord, permit me first to go and bury my
father.” 22 But Jesus said to him, “Follow
Me, and allow the dead to bury their own
dead.”
Matthew 8:23-24
When He got into the boat, His
disciples followed Him. 24 And behold,
there arose a great storm on the sea, so
that the boat was being covered with the
waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep.
Matthew 8:25-26
And they came to Him and woke
Him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are
perishing!” 26 He said to them, “Why are
you afraid, you men of little faith?” Then
He got up and rebuked the winds and the
sea, and it became perfectly calm.
The men were amazed, and said, “What kind
of a man is this, that even the winds and the
sea obey Him?” (Matthew 8:27)
Matthew 8:28
When He came to
the other side into the
country of the Gadarenes,
two men who were
demon-possessed met
Him as they were coming
out of the tombs. They
were so extremely violent
that no one could pass by
that way.
Matthew 8:29
And they cried out, saying, “What
business do we have with each other,
Son of God? Have You come here to
torment us before the time?”
Matthew 8:30-31
Now there was a herd of many
swine feeding at a distance from them. 31
The demons began to entreat Him,
saying, “If You are going to cast us out,
send us into the herd of swine.”
And He said to them, “Go!”
And they came out and went
into the swine, and the whole
herd rushed down the steep
bank into the sea and perished
in the waters. (Matthew 8:32)
Matthew 8:33-34
The herdsmen ran away, and went
to the city and reported everything,
including what had happened to the
demoniacs. 34 And behold, the whole city
came out to meet Jesus; and when they
saw Him, they implored Him to leave their
region.
!
Getting into a boat, Jesus
crossed over the sea and came to
His own city (Matthew 9:1).
Matthew 9:2
And they brought to Him a paralytic
lying on a bed. Seeing their faith, Jesus
said to the paralytic, “Take courage, son;
your sins are forgiven.”
Matthew 9:3
And some of the scribes said to
themselves, “This fellow blasphemes.”
Matthew 9:4-7
And Jesus knowing their thoughts
said, “Why are you thinking evil in your
hearts? 5 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your
sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, and
walk’? 6 But so that you may know that
the Son of Man has authority on earth to
forgive sins” -- then He said to the
paralytic, “Get up, pick up your bed and
go home.” 7 And he got up and went
home.
Matthew 9:8
But when the crowds saw this, they
were awestruck, and glorified God, who
had given such authority to men.
When Jesus had finished these words,
the crowds were amazed at His
teaching; 29 for He was teaching them
as one having authority, and not as
their scribes. (Matthew 7:28-29).
Matthew 9:8
But when the crowds saw this, they
were awestruck, and glorified God, who
had given such authority to men.
And Jesus came up and spoke to
them, saying, “All authority has been
given to Me in heaven and on earth”
(Matthew 28:18).
Matthew 9:9
As Jesus went on from there, He
saw a man called Matthew, sitting in the
tax collector’s booth; and He said to him,
“Follow Me!” And he got up and followed
Him.
Matthew 9:10
Then it happened that as Jesus was
reclining at the table in the house, behold,
many tax collectors and sinners came
and were dining with Jesus and His
disciples.
Matthew 9:11-13
When the Pharisees saw this, they
said to His disciples, “Why is your
Teacher eating with the tax collectors and
sinners?” 12 But when Jesus heard this,
He said, “It is not those who are healthy
who need a physician, but those who are
sick. 13 But go and learn what this means:
‘I desire compassion, and not sacrifice,’
for I did not come to call the righteous,
but sinners.”
Matthew 9:14
Then the disciples of John came to
Him, asking, “Why do we and the
Pharisees fast, but Your disciples do not
fast?”
Matthew 9:15
And Jesus said to them, “The
attendants of the bridegroom cannot
mourn as long as the bridegroom is with
them, can they? But the days will come
when the bridegroom is taken away from
them, and then they will fast.”
Matthew 9:16-17
“But no one puts a patch of
unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the
patch pulls away from the garment, and a
worse tear results. 17 Nor do people put
new wine into old wineskins; otherwise
the wineskins burst, and the wine pours
out and the wineskins are ruined; but they
put new wine into fresh wineskins, and
both are preserved.”
Matthew 9:18-19
While He was saying these things to
them, a synagogue official came and
bowed down before Him, and said, “My
daughter has just died; but come and lay
Your hand on her, and she will live.”
19 Jesus got up and began to follow him,
and so did His disciples.
Matthew 9:20-22
And a woman who had been
suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve
years, came up behind Him and touched
the fringe of His cloak; 21 for she was
saying to herself, “If I only touch His
garment, I will get well.” 22 But Jesus
turning and seeing her said, “Daughter,
take courage; your faith has made you
well.” At once the woman was made well.
Matthew 9:23-26
When Jesus came into the official’s
house, and saw the flute-players and the
crowd in noisy disorder, 24 He said,
“Leave; for the girl has not died, but is
asleep.” And they began laughing at Him.
25 But when the crowd had been sent out,
He entered and took her by the hand, and
the girl got up. 26 This news spread
throughout all that land.
Matthew 9:27
As Jesus went on from there, two
blind men followed Him, crying out, “Have
mercy on us, Son of David!”
Matthew 9:28-29
When He entered the house, the
blind men came up to Him, and Jesus
said to them, “Do you believe that I am
able to do this?” They said to Him, “Yes,
Lord.” 29 Then He touched their eyes,
saying, “It shall be done to you according
to your faith.”
Matthew 9:30-31
And their eyes were opened. And
Jesus sternly warned them: “See that no
one knows about this!” 31 But they went
out and spread the news about Him
throughout all that land.
Matthew 9:32-34
As they were going out, a mute,
demon-possessed man was brought to
Him. 33 After the demon was cast out, the
mute man spoke; and the crowds were
amazed, and were saying, “Nothing like
this has ever been seen in Israel.” 34 But
the Pharisees were saying, “He casts out
the demons by the ruler of the demons.”
Matthew 9:35
Jesus was going through all the
cities and villages, teaching in their
synagogues and proclaiming the gospel
of the kingdom, and healing every kind of
disease and every kind of sickness.
Matthew 4:23
Matthew 9:35
Jesus was going
throughout all Galilee,
teaching in their
synagogues and
proclaiming the gospel
of the kingdom, and
healing every kind of
disease and every kind
of sickness among the
people.
Jesus was going
through all the cities
and villages, teaching
in their synagogues
and proclaiming the
gospel of the kingdom,
and healing every kind
of disease and every
kind of sickness.
Matthew 9:36-38
Seeing the people, He felt
compassion for them, because they were
distressed and dispirited like sheep
without a shepherd. 37 Then He said to
His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but
the workers are few. 38 Therefore beseech
the Lord of the harvest to send out
workers into His harvest.”
