The people that stop Jesus in his tracks tend to get his full attention.
And what they ask for!
Blind Bartimaeus did just that. Outside Jericho.
Jesus – “What do you want me to do for you?”
Our answers tells us much about ourtreasure,
our life desires,
our understanding of the Kingdom
and what is first in our lives.
This is a profound question from the Lord. IN a nothing is impossible mindset…..What does it mean to have Jesus ask us this question?
This miracle follows the one at Bethany – Raising Lazarus.
Jesus is the one who opens the eyes of the blind.
They see him first!
Jesus is the one who raises the dead.
They find life in him alone.
Hunger and desperation in request of Jesus always brought a response.
Those who stopped him in his tracks found healing, sight, deliverance.
Are you hungry enough to stop Jesus in his tracks?
Are you willing to interrupt him while he walks with the crowds?
In New Testament times Jericho stood some distance to the south-east of the ancient one, and near the opening of the valley of Achor.
Promise: I will make the valley of Achor a door of hope.
"Therefore, behold, I will allure her, Bring her into the wilderness And speak kindly to her. 15"Then I will give her her vineyards from there, And the valley of Achor as a door of hope. And she will sing there as in the days of her youth, As in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt. 16"It will come about in that day," declares the LORD, "That you will call Me Ishi And will no longer call Me Baali.… Hosea 2
And his first sight was of Jesus.
When Israel passes into the land of promise she will see Jesus first.
The strongholds of Jericho will fall to his love and power in the simple requests of those who cry out to him.
He is the Father's sight to behold.
Hebrews 1
There is much going on these days in Christian circles.
Hopes of Revival.
Tons of teachings.
Worship and Prayer in many forms.
It seems the water mark has risen since the crash of 2008.
In all of the circumstances life throws our way......There is ONE Desire in the Nations that can restore our sight. Jesus Christ.
The real question is What do you want him to do for you?
"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8"For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.… Matthew 7:7
Then Jesus said, "Receive your sight."
The supernatural breaks into our everyday life as we call out and cry out to the Lord Jesus for help, miracles, healing, hope and courageous hearts.What are you asking, seeking and knocking for?
Does it require faith? Can you see it?
Does it originate at the Throne of the Alpha and Omega?
I've recently wrote on.....
Giant Slaying Courage - the kind that fills the heart of Jesus for us and the Father's will. He leads us write up to the lands filled with Giants ----So we can learn to slay them.
We are learning to rule and reign with Jesus in the tangible realities of this life. That's part of what he is doing in us. We face off against life's challenges so we can appropriate the grace, freedom, power and love of God in faith filled prayer and trust.
God is Faithful
And he is so much more.....
He is for us not against us.
He is mighty to save
He is our deliverer
He is our fortress
He is Faith, HOPE and LOVE
As you face off against the struggles of life and the sufferings of the Gospel,
Remember,
Jesus walked this path and won.
He followed the Father with and
Undivided
Unhindered
Undaunted
Heart after God - that's where it all begins.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Phil 4:6
Look forward, eyes filled with Abundance, Boundless, Victorious vision in Jesus.
