What Do You Want Me to Do for You?

🌄 Good morning

Monday morning’s Bible Word is… 📖

Mark 10:48

“Many people admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, ‘Son of David, have mercy on me!’”
・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・
Bartimaeus was a man blind from birth, and he lived by begging at the roadside.
Then Jesus and those with Him came out of the city of Jericho.
At that moment…
“Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
he began to cry out.
…
To call Him “Son of David” was a very significant testimony concerning the Christ (the Messiah)… 😱
…
Jesus said to him, “What do you want Me to do for you?”
The blind man said, “Teacher, I want to see.”
Then Jesus said, “Go, your faith has saved you.”
Immediately he was able to see, and he followed Jesus along the road.
Hallelujah (⌒0⌒)／~~
…
God still speaks to us in the same way today❗️
“What do you want Me to do for you❓️”
…
Problems at home, problems at work, problems in raising children, problems between husband and wife…
problems in human relationships… and so on.
…
We carry many different problems❗️
That is why we pray honestly and directly. 🙏
…
The Lord Himself is the One who moves to work through my weakness, my lack, and my problems❗️
As we believe this and continue to pray,
perhaps the real issue is not the problem itself…
but whether we have faith… 🤔❓️
I believe that is the question.
…

This week as well, let us keep walking while trusting in the Lord❗️

Shalom 😃
