Meditating
on the Scriptures Together
Morning:
Mark 11:12-33
[12] On the
following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry. [13] And
seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could
find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves,
for it was not the season for figs. [14] And he said to it, “May no
one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it.
[15] And they came
to Jerusalem. And he entered the temple and began to drive out those
who sold and those who bought in the temple, and he overturned the
tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons.
[16] And he would not allow anyone to carry anything through the
temple. [17] And he was teaching them and saying to them, “Is it
not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all
the nations’? But you have made it a den of robbers.” [18] And
the chief priests and the scribes heard it and were seeking a way to
destroy him, for they feared him, because all the crowd was
astonished at his teaching. [19] And when evening came they went out
of the city.
[20] As they passed
by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots.
[21] And Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig
tree that you cursed has withered.” [22] And Jesus answered them,
“Have faith in God. [23] Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this
mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not
doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass,
it will be done for him. [24] Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask
in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
[25] And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything
against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive
you your trespasses.”
[27] And they came
again to Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, the chief
priests and the scribes and the elders came to him, [28] and they
said to him, “By what authority are you doing these things, or who
gave you this authority to do them?” [29] Jesus said to them, “I
will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what
authority I do these things. [30] Was the baptism of John from heaven
or from man? Answer me.” [31] And they discussed it with one
another, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why
then did you not believe him?’ [32] But shall we say, ‘From
man’?”—they were afraid of the people, for they all held that
John really was a prophet. [33] So they answered Jesus, “We do not
know.” And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what
authority I do these things.”
