Matthew 20:20-23
Introduction:
Matthew 20:20-23, “Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Jesus with her sons, bowing down and making a request of Him. 21 And He said to her, “What do you wish?” She said to Him, “Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit one on Your right and one on Your left.” 22 But Jesus answered, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They said to Him, “We are able.” 23 He said to them, “My cup you shall drink; but to sit on My right and on My left, this is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.””
I. She wanted her sons to be a part of Jesus' kingdom.
“Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit one on Your right and one on Your left.”
II. She wanted her sons to be involved in the work of Jesus' kingdom.
“Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit one on Your right and one on Your left.”

III. She wanted something great for her sons.
“Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit one on Your right and one on Your left.”
“”Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They said to Him, “We are able.” 23 He said to them, “My cup you shall drink; but to sit on My right and on My left, this is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.””
Conclusion:
“I do my best to maintain always a blameless conscience both before God and before men” (Acts 24;16).
