Ìý
Jesus cleanses the temple to call people back to prayer and intimacy with God. He disrupts the money-changing routine that was preventing people from encountering God, and teaches that the temple should be a house of prayer for all nations. However, religious leaders oppose Jesus because He threatens their power and priorities. Jesus continues teaching even amidst opposition, focusing on establishing God's name and salvation for others. Believers are called to similarly examine their hearts and motives for attending church, and seize opportunities to help others find God.

It encourages influencing others through how one lives, so that when worldly things fail, people may look to one's witness about Jesus for answers.
