Mark 8:22-26 ~ enter

 







Mark 8:22-26




22 And they came to Bethsaida. And some people brought to Him a blind man and begged Him to touch Him. 23 And He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village, and when He had spit on his eyes and laid His Hands on him, He asked him, “Do you see anything?” 

24 And he looked up and said, “I see people, but they look like trees, walking.” 25 Then Jesus laid His Hands on his eyes again; and he opened his eyes, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. 

26 And Jesus sent him to his home, saying, “Do not even enter the village.”






26 And Jesus sent him to his home, saying, “Do not even enter the village.”

This could have been humor. And it could be a Dear Abby Type Answer.

So many times, when we pray, we ask The Lord for wisdom, in choices we make or directions to take.  In Mark's Gospel, Chapter 8, Jesus has answered the blind man's decisions on where to go and what to do next.

What other times did Jesus answer the questions we all ask of Him?




Is Jesus personable!



In this Chapter, Jesus tells the Disciples … to understand. He asks them to open their hearts and eyes to understand Him.  And then He asks them to be obedient to Him. Jesus tells them to be proud of His Words and to proclaim the Word and faith.


Jesus tells the worried father to have more faith.  The man asks for help, Jesus Helps. Jesus tells the busy Disciples to pray more. 



He takes time for children, and places priorities where others would not. 



 Jesus is Alive and He tells the Disciples to have more salt. To be interesting! 


Jesus cuts across marriage and divorce and says don't do what the world does, do what God would have us do.


One man would seem to be too busy for God, his salvation appears Iffy and Jesus says, all things are possible with God. 


Jesus says, Whoever receives Heaven like a child, shall enter Heaven.




42 And Jesus called them to him and said to them, 
“You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 

43 But it shall not be so among you. 

But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, 44 and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. 

45 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”






2 And Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” 

And immediately he recovered his sight and followed Him on the way.



“What is this Word? 
For with authority and power 
He commands"


The Word of God, with the pure, we find a Loving, Compassionate God, Who Proclaims Jesus is His exact image.  With the shrewd, we find reasons to doubt and be double minded.  Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 

Varieties of Miracles
When we want Jesus, as our Lord, to give us advice, the Go Ask Abby Variety too, we find Living, Loving, Authority in Jesus.  One of the Miracles of Jesus is His Ability to Be GOD and to reach into frail hearts and souls and make them alive in Jesus.

Jesus Ascends and with Him, we do as well.


A peace within.

Real Joy and Giving Thanks. 


Abba, Father,

In Your Holy Spirit 
we ask forgiveness for sins,
and Your help for forgiveness
and guidance
create and renew Real Joy and Giving Thanks
within us.

To acknowledge pain, suffering and believe in Hope.
Understanding the Depth that You have lived 
Grace upon Grace
in this life.
Mercy of the Merciful, Jesus Christ. 

David felt his reward didn't sparkle daily.
And his family suffered again.

Help us to be the one who
gives thanks with meaningful purpose.

To have the Joy
of Overcoming.

To believe in all aspects of Life
the Darkness has not overcome The Light.

To have joy in our outrageous suffering
because
Victory is Certain in Christ Jesus The Lord.
And to gain strength
The Strength in the Joy of the Lord.

Gratitude
Mercy
Hope
Gratitude
Joy
Promises Fulfilled
Mercy
Gratitude
Endurance
and Gratitude again.

Gratitude and wisdom
Gratitude and New Life
Gratitude and Dreams.

Dwell in us, Father,
we ask in the Highest Name of Jesus.
Dwell, fully, in those we love

Help us to seek You 
first
and we will finish well 
in Jesus Christ.



We ask healing
of Your Good Creation!

The fullness of the earth is Yours.

The healing of those we pray for
in our heart and soul.

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
