September 11
Introduction
Jesus upbraids the Pharisees for their hypocritical behavior. The parable of the rich man and Lazarus is designed to teach about having compassion for the poor.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Luke 16:14-31
Today’s Key Verse: Luke 16:15b
[Jesus said:] “The things that are considered of great value by people are worth nothing in God’s sight.”
Reflect
When the Pharisees are described as those who “love money” (verse 14), it is because they neglected the poor for the sake of their own social status. In Jesus’s day, some people thought that the life to come would be like a banquet that God would give for them; Abraham would be the most important person there and the guest of honor would be seated next to him. What happened to the rich man? What happened to Lazarus? What did the rich man ask of Abraham? What can you learn from this parable?
Pray
Holy and compassionate God, teach me your ways and help me not to ignore the needs of others. You know my heart, O God; may I be obedient to your Word. Amen.
Prayer Concern
The poor
Tomorrow’s Reading
Luke 17:1-10: Jesus teaches about sin, forgiveness, faith, and service.
