Last week we saw the power of Jesus on display over nature, evil, sickness, and sin, proving that Jesus is the Son of Man prophesied in Daniel 7. He is sovereign over all things and worth following. This week we will see what it takes to follow Jesus as we continue our series The Upside-Down Kingdom with Matthew 9:9-13. This passage is personal for our author, Matthew, because it is the story of Jesus calling him to follow. Matthew is a tax collector. It is difficult to capture the fulness of what that meant in society at the time; tax collectors were despised. The people Jesus called to follow him were not the people that anyone else would have chosen, and for every one of us, that’s good news.

When life feels out of control, and the wind and waves of sorrow and suffering are battering us, it is hard to trust that God is sovereign and watching. This week we will continue our series The Upside-Down Kingdom with Matthew 8:18-9:8. In it we will see the sovereign authority and power of Jesus over the natural world, the spiritual world and dark powers, sickness and death itself, and over the weight of sin that drags at our souls. Jesus, the Son of Man, is the One who has the power over all things.

As Jesus came down from teaching on the mountain, crowds of people followed him. In chapters 8-9 we see the values and kingdom that Jesus proclaimed put into action. In our passage this week we will see the signs of the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus healed the sick and leprous, welcomed outsiders, and fulfilled the Law and Prophets. This passage will help us to see what all who follow Jesus as their King enjoy and ought to prioritize.
