JUNE 27TH – CAPSULE 27
TOPIC: KNOW WHAT YOU NEED ( KEEP NOT SILENT)
BIBLE TEXT: MARK 10 VS 47-51 – And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me. …… And Jesus answered and said unto him, what wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
A certain blind man sat by the high way just outside the city of Jericho begging for alms, and on a blessed day he heard that it was Jesus Christ of Nazareth that was passing by his begging corner. Now this man was poor and blind at the same time but still found time to listen to the gospel of Christ from evangelists and missionaries who regularly passed by preparing the way for the Lord to walk through in glory.
This blind man heard that it was Jesus, which means he was taught about the same Jesus and the hour of manifestation had come for him to receive from Christ Jesus. He began to cry out (aloud) to draw the attention of Jesus, by saying “son of David , have mercy on me”. The blind man knew what to pray for, because he believed the report of the Lord and so he directed his strength through prayers of truth to receive an answer that satisfies every need.
Many told him that he was a noise maker, in service, many said to him behave yourself and do as we do but he ignored their counsel and cried out the more because he know what he needed from Christ Jesus. And he got the attention of the Lord and his need was met because of his faith. Don’t let the words of men cripple your faith, don’t let your situation silence your opportunities, rise up in faith and pursue your needs in Christ Jesus.
Prayer: Thou Son of the living God have mercy on me and look upon my needs in Jesus name.
Insight: Knowing what you need from Jesus Christ, increase your heart of prayer.
