"Genuine Prayer"(Luke 18:9-14)

 

Luke 18:9-14

Many people think of prayers as magic spells that allow them to ask God for whatever they want. However, prayers are about connecting to God to allow for genuine worship and communication. 

Prayer does not require ritual. There is nothing wrong with bowing your head and clasping your hands every time you pray. Much the same, there is nothing wrong with shouting out your prayers or praying them quietly. Yet, our prayers can please God or displease God.

Jesus explains how prayers can be acceptable or not. He does this by contrasting two people in a parable which illustrates the how a tax collector and a Pharisee pray one day. Jesus' choice of these two contrasting people was intentional and needs some explanation.

The tax collector was considered an enemy of the Jewish people. These men were Jews who collaborated with the enemy, Rome, and were despised by the conquered Jewish people who suffered greatly under Rome's rules and taxes. Tax collectors were also notorious for being dishonest and took more than they were supposed to collect. Yet, his prayer was praised by Jesus.

But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’

Luke 18:13 ESV

God respects humility and wants a real relationship with His followers. The tax collector knew God and also knew he could never measure up to God's standards and therefore was completely at God's mercy. The Pharisee is not praised, but rather he is criticized by Jesus.

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified, rather than the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”

Luke 18:14 ESV

The Pharisee knows the law and is sure that he follows it better than others like the tax collector..

The Pharisee, standing by himself, prayed thus: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.’

Luke 18:11‭-‬12 ESV

 This boasting is unwarranted. Although he was correct in the actions he did, his heart was not worshipping God. He did not know God and did not acknowledge how much he needed God. He was not in awe of God nor feared God. He is quite foolish with his words.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.

Proverbs 9:10 ESV

The tax collector was in awe of God. He was fully aware of his weakness and God's greatness. He knew he was dirty and unworthy, but he still approaches God for mercy. He knew that only God could save him from mercy. He does not boast or bargain, he knows it would be futile. He can only ask in humility.

But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’

Luke 18:13 ESV

As Christians, we need to repent of our sins. We cannot remove our sins ourselves, nor can we do anything but repent of our sins and acknowledge that is only the love of Jesus saves us.

And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Acts 2:38 ESV

However we may pray, we should strive to pray in  true humility with the expectation of growing closer to God.

CCLI Song # 18723 Thomas Obediah Chisholm | William Marion Runyan

 

"True Heart"(Luke 21:1-9)

Luke 21:1-9

When Jesus came to Jerusalem, we went to the temple to praise God. He sees people putting their gifts into the treasury box. Although Jesus is watching people put their gifts into the box, he is not looking at what they put in but at their hearts.

What is the difference between the widow's heart and others putting in their gifts. The widow was unlikely to support herself because at that time in history most women could not work. Yet, the widow still acknowledges that everything comes from God. Because of this understanding and acceptance, the widow can give all that she has to God.

We see another instance of The women who breaks the alabaster jar of perfume and anoints Jesus head and feet with the perfume shows another person who was willing to give all. 

For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”

Luke 21:4 ESV

Jesus is not telling us to become poor or that it is better to be poor. Jesus wants our hearts. It is more important what is on our heart rather than how much we put in. Jesus does not need our money. 

God knows everything about us, and so does Jesus. Jesus knows what is in our hearts whether we believe this or not. No one but Jesus can judge you when you give. For those who only pretend to give the best to God, they are known to God and cannot trick him..

And while some were speaking of the temple, how it was adorned with noble stones and offerings, he said, “As for these things that you see, the days will come when there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.”

Luke 21:5‭-‬6 ESV

Jesus had a different view than others. Jesus understand that many Pharisees and priests  denied Jesus and the temple that was adorned with the costly gifts did not impress Him. Jesus could see past the material wealth and its transient nature. Jesus was looking for pure worship and not a building.

The temple that is true and has the spirit of God in its worshippers is what Jesus seeks. The early Christians worshipped in the basements but because they worshipped in truth and spirit, Jesus was more impressed with those places of worship. Many try to worship God with building beautiful places of worship, but it is the heart that Jesus looks at.

And he said, “See that you are not led astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and, ‘The time is at hand!’ Do not go after them. And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be terrified, for these things must first take place, but the end will not be at once.”

Luke 21:8‭-‬9 ESV

This part may seem disheartening, but John's letter of Revelation shows us that eventually these heresies will end. We must trust in Jesus and test these teachings. Hard times will come. We understand that these things will happen, yet we do not need to worry or be afraid. Jesus will return. 

Focusing on the persecution and hardships will unsettle us, but focusing on Jesus will keep us grounded in joy, hope and salvation. As always, we need to focus on Jesus to remain in true worship with a true heart.
