These who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.’

“But he answered one of them, ‘I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t you agree to work for a denarius?14Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you.15Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’

Jesus stopped and called them. “What do you want me to do for you?”he asked.

33“Lord,” they answered, “we want our sight.”

34Jesus had compassion on them and touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him.

“Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done.22If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”

Lord God my Father,

Help me to not live a life of comparison but of focus on your way. Teach me how to ask for your way before I move forward, give me faith without doubt, help me believe!

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

26Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

The blind man said, “Rabbi, I want to see.”

52 “Go,”said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.”Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.

Lord God my Father,

Lord God, I am blind and I want to truly see. Keep me from my own desires and make me see yours. Give me protection over the darkness ever prowling and keep me in your light. Without you I am nothing but dirt, with you I am freedom. Show me the way and give me courage to follow it.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”

“What is impossible with man is possible with God.”

The disciples did not understand any of this. Its meaning was hidden from them, and they did not know what he was talking about.

Lord God my Father,

Strip me bare and let me see as I once did. Help me to not live in doubt but in wonder. With you all things are possible. Open my spirit to know you and live for you alone.

in Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;26and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

 “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.42I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me.”

Lord God my Father,

You are life and all things good. Help me to put all my faith in your plan and protect me from deceit. Help me to live by your way above the worlds. Give me confidence without question of your ability and deliverance, help me to know you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light.9I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings.

 “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’ ”

“If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.

“Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”

Lord God my Father,

Give me the shrewdness to do your will without compromise, help me to create relationships for you. Align my heart with yours so I can know your will and carry no doubt. Allow your Love to be seen above my nature.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
