Grace for you today !
Christ in me – God’s set time for my glory !
“And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” So Jesus stood still and commanded him to be called. Then they called the blind man, saying to him, “Be of good cheer. Rise, He is calling you.” And throwing aside his garment, he rose and came to Jesus. So Jesus answered and said to him, “What do you want Me to do for you?” The blind man said to Him, “Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.”
Mark 10:47, 49-52 NKJV
During those days the blind men wore a garment that signified that they were blind and they needed support & livelihood .
So also was this blind man Bartimaeus mentioned in the passage above who was on the road side, with his garment on & was begging alms.
The moment he heard that Jesus was passing by, he knew that the set time of God had come to favour him!
Immediately he cried out with all his heart and threw away his ‘ blind’ garment by which he showed his intent loud and clear that he wanted a change desperately. Yes, he wanted to break away from mediocrity and monotony to liberty. He wanted to move away from people’s mercy to God’s favour. He also wanted do away with support-lifestyle to walk in divine-destiny.
Yes my beloved, make your heart’s intent clear to God and the people around. Your cry will make Jesus to stand still and will cause you to hear His comforting voice. Thats the time to do away with the “old garment”.
God’s set time has come! Get into the action mode. Say to Him, “ Pass me not O Gentle Saviour…”.
You are at the brink of your miracle! Shake off the dust of the gloomy past! Throw off the old garment of “people-dependent “ for, it is better to trust God than to put confidence in people & princes.
As Jesus is reaching out to you, you reach out to Him. That contact is the intersecting point between ‘kairos’ and ‘chronos’, resulting in the miracle – net breaking abundance, divine health, promotion to the next level far beyond human ability & imagination! Amen 🙏
Praise Jesus!
