S Matthew 13:10-14
10 And the disciples came and said to Him, “Why do
You speak to them in parables?”11 He answered
and said to them, “Because it has been
given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it
has not been given.
![Page 17: Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14 Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697bfa91a28abf838c99f43/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
S 12 For whoever has, to him more will be given,
and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 13 Therefore I
speak to them in parables, because seeing they do
not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14 And in
them…

S
…the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says:
‘Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, And seeing you will see and not
perceive.”
![Page 19: Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14 Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697bfa91a28abf838c99f43/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
S Matthew 13:10-14(The Message)
10 The disciples came up and asked, ‘Why do you
tell stories?’11-15He replied, ‘You’ve been given insight into
God’s kingdom. You know how it works. Not
everybody has this gift, this insight; it hasn’t…
![Page 20: Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14 Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697bfa91a28abf838c99f43/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
S…been given to them. Whenever someone has a ready heart for this, the
insights and understandings flow freely.
But if there is no readiness, any trace of
receptivity soon disappears. That’s why I
tell stories: to create readiness, to nudge the people toward receptive
insight. In their…

S…present state they can stare till doomsday and
not see it, listen till they’re blue in the face and not
get it. I don't want Isaiah's forecast repeated all over
again:
Your ears are open but you don’t hear a thing.
![Page 22: Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14 Discovering God’s Message, Methods & Messiah Matthew 13:10-14.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697bfa91a28abf838c99f43/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
S Your eyes are awake but you don’t see a thing.
The people are blockheads! They stick
their fingers in their ears so they won’t have to
listen; They screw their eyes
shut so they won’t have to
look, so they won’t have to deal with me face-to-face and let me heal them.

S9 And He said, “Go, and tell this people: ‘Keep on hearing, but do not
understand; Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’ 10 “Make the heart of this
people dull, And their ears heavy, And shut their eyes;
Lest they see with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And return and be healed.”
Isaiah 6:9-10

S“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who
seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or
what man is there among you who, if his son asks for
bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will
he give him a serpent?

to those who ask Him!.”Matthew 7:7-11
