Healing the Blind
Memory Verse
“Your faith has made you well” (Mark 10:52)
Jericho• Jesus was walking surrounded by
many people near a city called Jericho.
A Blind Beggar• Bartimaeus = A blind man was
sitting by the road begging for money or food.• He heard the noise of a great crowd of people surrounding Jesus Christ as they were passing by him.
What is Happening?• He could not see so he asked:–What’s happening?–Why is there a great crowd of
people?• They told him that Jesus Christ is
passing by.
Calling out to the Lord
• He started calling out with a loud voice:– “SON OF DAVID, have mercy on
me!”
• When the people heard Bartimaeus the blind calling on Jesus Christ, they tried to quiet him down and told him to stop making noise.
I am NOT giving up
• But Bartimaeus cried out even louder to make sure that Jesus would hear him.– “SON OF DAVID, have mercy on
me!!”
The Lord Heard Me• So Jesus stood still and commanded
him to be called.• They called the blind man, saying to
him,– “Be of good cheer. Rise, He is
calling you.”• So Bartimaeus was happy and asked
the people to help him to get in front of Jesus.
What do you want Me to do for you?
• When Jesus saw him, He asked:– “What do you want Me to do for
you?”• Bartimaeus said:– “Lord, that I may receive my sight.”
• Then Jesus touched his eyes and immediately he was able to see.
L
Your Faith has Made you Well
• Bartimaeus was so happy he could see everybody around him and Jesus Christ the Lord in front of him.
• Jesus said:– “Go your way; your faith has made you
well.”• Bartimaeus then followed Jesus,
glorifying God.• All the people, when they saw it,
gave praise to God too.
Let us Pray• THANK YOU Lord for giving me eyes to see and ears to hear!
• O Lord give me THE FAITH of the blind man to CALL on you, ASK for your mercy, and be HEALED by your compassion.
• Help our faith in you that we might BELIEVE by hearing alone as did the blind man.
• Lord help me to feel how much you care about me, that when I call on You, You HEAR ME!
• PROTECT YOUR CHURCH from persecution and from those who want to quiet her.
Thok te ti-gom• Thine is the power, the
glory, the blessing, and the majesty, forever Amen. Emmanuel our God and our King.
