Jesus Is In the House!

Matthew 18:20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”
Introduction
What would it have been like to live with Jesus? It appears to me that the twelve were comfortable around him. Jesus was the Son of God, but to His chosen followers, He was a Rabbi, a Teacher, a Healer and a Friend.
Sitting around the table or campfire, what would it have been like to be around Him? In awe? Did they consider Him just another rabbi?
How hard would it have been to be around someone that was perfect? He never sinned. Would it have been awkward?
What would it have been like to have been in His presence when He healed someone?
What was it like when He turned the water into wine.
How would they feel when Jesus turned over the moneychanger’s tables in the Temple? “High 5’s or Oh No’s”
When they were afraid for their lives upon the Sea of Galilee, what must the experience have been when Jesus shouted to the storm, “Peace. Be still.”
Today I want to look at what took place when Jesus was “In the House” and what the experience must have been.

Jesus meets the Wise Men

Matthew 2:11 And going into the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.

Jesus heals Peter’s Mother

Matthew 8:14 And when Jesus entered Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever.

Jesus heals the Man with the Palsy

Mark 2:1-12 And when he returned to Capernaum after some days, it was reported that he was at home.2 And many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door. And he was preaching the word to them.3And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men.

Jesus Raised the Maid from the Dead

Matthew 9:23-24 And when Jesus came to the ruler's house and saw the flute players and the crowd making a commotion,24 he said, “Go away, for the girl is not dead but sleeping.” And they laughed at him.
Is anything too hard for Jesus?

Jesus Heals the Two Blind Men

Matthew 9:28 When he entered the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord.”29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.”

Jesus Fellowships with Saints and Sinners

Matthew 9:9-10 As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called fMatthew sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him.
10 And as Jesus reclined at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Jesus and his disciples.

Jesus Teaches

Parables
Matthew 13:36 Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.”
Government Involvement
Matthew 17:25 He said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tax? From their sons or from others?”

Jesus Casts Out the Moneychangers from the Temple

Matthew 21:13 He said to them, “It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you make it a den of robbers.”
Sin is cast out when Jesus is in the house.

Jesus Receives Worship by a Woman

Matthew 26:6-7 Now when Jesus was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,17 a woman came up to him with an alabaster flask of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he reclined at table.
When Jesus is in the House, Worship Happens.

Jesus Raises Jairus’ Daughter from the Dead

Luke 8:41And there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue. And falling at Jesus' feet, he implored him to come to his house,42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying.
Luke 8:49-51 While he was still speaking, someone from the ruler's house came and said, “Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the Teacher any more.”50 But Jesus on hearing this answered him, “Do not fear; only believe, and she will be well.”51 And when he came to the house, he allowed no one to enter with him, except Peter and John and James, and the father and mother of the child.
When Jesus is in the House, even the Gentiles receive.

Jesus Teaches About His Father’s House

John 14:2-4 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.4 And you know the way to where I am going.”
When Jesus is in the House, eternal life is promised.
Conclusion
When Jesus is in the House:
· There is Healing. Physically, spiritually, between enemies.
· There is Fellowship. There is true fellowship: 2 fellows in the same ship, paddling in the same direction, toward the same goal.
· There is Worship
· There are Miracles – sinners gain eternal life
· There is Teaching
· There is Everlasting Life.
