QUICK REVIEW Looking back at your notes from this week’s teaching:
What did you hear for the first time? What stood out? What challenged you? What confused you?
MAIN POINT
“Jesus came to touch broken lives, to cleanse us of sin, and to give you a powerful testimony of His goodness and grace.”
DIGGING DEEPER
1) Jesus Came to Touch Broken Lives
a) What can we observe from Jesus in this passage and His way of doing ministry?
b) What does ministry mean and who is called to minister?
c) What do or where do you go when you need help, strength or healing?
2) To Cleanse Us of Sin
a) How is leprosy a picture of sin?
b) How does Jesus' interaction with the leper teach us about His desire to touch our lives and the lives of those around us?
c) Jesus said, “I am willing…” How hard or easy is it to accept His will after we’ve come to Him in prayer?
3) To Give You A Powerful Testimony of His Goodness and Grace
a) What’s another passage in the Old Testament that points to Jesus?
b) What does it mean when Peter says in 1 Peter 3:15?
c) How do we obtain a powerful testimony?
d) How have you experienced the Holy Spirit working in you or through you?
APPLICATION
To be forgiven of sin is to receive a touch of Jesus in our lives personally. When Jesus touches our hearts, He changes us, makes us a new creation, and our lives become a powerful witness to His goodness and His grace.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, I come to You because You alone are the source of new life and You alone have grace and mercy for my times of need. Lord, I ask___________, and may Your will be done.
