PERSONAL REVELATION FOR DESTINY GREATNESS

TOPIC:  PERSONAL REVELATION FOR DESTINY GREATNESS

TEXT: "And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom… (Matthew 9:9)."

If you read through the different Gospel accounts of when Jesus called Matthew, His disciple, they each tell a slightly different but similar story.

 In Luke’s account, it records Jesus seeing a publican named Levi (see Luke 5:27-28). Publicans were considered sinners, and the name Levi comes from the Hebrew name for the Levites, which means to be twined. It speaks of the intertwining seen between borrowing and lending and obviously the bondage involved with the two. Mark’s account of Jesus’ call to Matthew is similar in that he is also referred to as Levi (see Mark 2:14). Notice how both Mark and Luke see Matthew as the publican named Levi, which indicates they saw him as an insignificant individual. However, Matthew’s account of himself is much different. Matthew says Jesus saw a man. He didn’t see a publican or sinner, He saw a person. Then he notes that Jesus saw Matthew. The name Matthew means gift. He didn’t see Levi, the person intertwined with problems. Jesus saw a real human being, a gifted individual with great potential, named Matthew. That revelation propelled Matthew, this one-time publican, into Kingdom greatness. Realize that your name is known in Heaven today and only you what God has put in you and what He is doing in your life. Jesus sees a special person who is being propelled into Kingdom greatness; you need to see the same thing too.
