Bible Verse of The Day – 7-26-23

Mark 10:48 (NKJV) 48 Then many warned him to be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”

The man in this verse was crying out loudly. He pleaded with Jesus to have mercy on him.

He was called Bartimaeus. He was blind. And he wanted Jesus to heal him; to give him his sight.

So, he yelled as loudly as he could to get His attention above the ruckus of the crowds that had gathered.

Those around him yelled back at him, scolding him for being so brazen and loud, and warning him to be quiet.

But this just made him yell more loudly, determined to draw the attention of Jesus and seek the healing that he needed.

And Jesus heard his cries.

Approaching Bartimaeus, Jesus asked him, “What do you want Me to do for you?”.

Bartimaeus boldly told Jesus, “that I may receive my sight”.

And it was done. Jesus spoke the words and Bartimaeus was healed!

Bartimaeus was persistent. His faith kept him yelling out to Jesus despite the warnings of the crowd to stop.

We are much like Bartimaeus many times, desperately in need of something from God.

But are we like him when it comes to pressing in and making our needs known?

Or are we allowing the influence of the enemy or the people around us to silence us when we know we should be speaking up, crying out for Jesus to touch us or help us?

This can rob us of many things, including our time with God or healing from our infirmities.

As Bartimaeus, Zacchaeus (Luke 19:2-6), and the woman with a flow of blood lasting for 12 years (Matthew 9:20-22) did, let us also press in, rise above the noise and the chaos and cry out to God, letting nothing and nobody stand in our way, that our petitions may be made known.

And by our faith, may we receive from Him those things that we so desperately need.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-15-19

Psalm 34:10 (NKJV) 10 The young lions lack and suffer hunger; But those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.

Are we hungry today? Are we looking for answers? Are we suffering from things that keep on attacking us, physically and mentally?

This is not uncommon. People all around us are suffering from one thing or another.

Some need a sound mind. They’re wrestling with a busy and anxious mind. Some are struggling to keep their bills paid and food on the table for their family. And some are addicted to things that aren’t good for them.

As we seek after the Lord, we shall not lack. Things will change and get better for us.

No matter what we suffer with, don’t ever feel like we cannot approach Him. He has come for those who need help. He understands us and what our situation needs to get past the problems that we face every day.

The Lord will give us peace and help us overcome the things that torment us.

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Dear God in Heaven,

I come to You today and ask for help. I can’ t bear to go through another day of torment, another day of shedding tears because of my problems. I need You. Forgive me, Lord, for contributing to these problems. Show me how to turn things around. Your word tells me that You have overcome the world and all its issues. Please help me to overcome mine.

Give me strength today to stand up and fight, not by my own strength, but through the wisdom You offer, that I may win this battle once and for all.

In the precious name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

Our prayers are with you all that are fighting a battle. God will see you through it as you take the steps He has for you.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-23-18

John 6:35 (NKJV) 35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.

Life in Christ is good. He is our everything!

He will satisfy our hunger. He will bring us answers. There is so much peace and joy in His Word. His promises are true. He brings a fulfillment that nothing else in this world can compare to.

Will our life be perfect and will everything go right all the time? No, not necessarily in the way we think it should go.

Life is not a fairy tale. We can’t always paint a pretty picture when things are not pretty. But if we live life through Christ, we will be satisfied at any stage we are in. He will have the answer and the way for us to follow.

His answer, His understanding, His compassion, mercy, forgiveness and most importantly His LOVE, will meet us right where we are at, even in our darkest hour.

Hallelujah… He is our bread of life.

If we go to Him, He will take care of us, help us make the changes we need to make, and we will stand strong! Amen.
