Today I had an opportunity to go over a Devotional, Bible 365, and to present it a powerful TOPIC on a Tiktok LIVE, yes you heard me right, the “scrolling app“, or “waste your time app“
but stay with me,
God has been using the APP to be able to bring this Message across to many individuals all around the GLOBE, not only on Tiktok LIVE but also carry it over here, on my Site.
Not to get distracted, Our assigned scripture for today was Mark 10: 35-52

You can read the entire Chapter, or come along on the journey with me, to listen to my Podcast on Mark 9 & 10
Scriptures to Memorize
Two of Jesus disciples approach Jesus with this Question?
Can we sit at your right or left hand?
in other words, can we be guaranteed a SPOT in the Kingdom of Heaven? They asked Jesus for positions of honor in His kingdom. They wanted to sit at Jesus’ right and left in glory.
He asked them if they could drink the cup He would drink. If they could suffer like he did, pick up the cross, and follow him. (Matthew 16:24-26)
to which Jesus replies, “it is not my choice, or right to give position in the KINGDOM of HEAVEN, it’s my father’s right”. I am simply here to give an opportunity, but what happens in the afterlife, is not my right to GIVE, or make decition, I’m only here to pave the way. (John 1:27)
infact,
I personally would have been just fine with the fact that I was worthy to be called his disciple, let alone worry about eternal rewards, but I’m not James or John.
Key Points
We must be a servant : To be great in the kingdom, we must serve others. Whatever capacity we find ourselves to serve, serve with our whole heart. Not seeking validation or approval from human masters, but do it, as unto the Lord. 1 Cor 10:31
Serve with humility and a heart of surrender. Greatness by Jesus’ definition is surrender and humility. For God so loved the world, that he surrendered his will, for the will of humankind. John 3:16
Be GOD pleaser, not people pleaser. Don’t seek validation or approval from people, seek accolades by doing good deeds, and glorifying the father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16; Galations 1:10

Let’s transition to another part of this Study
Blind beggar by the name of Bartemaeus. (I found it uinteresting that this blind beggar was given a name.)
“Blind Bartimaeus receives his Sight.” – Gospel of Mark 10
Scriptures to Memorize
This blind beggar was FED UP and he CRIED OUT
Have MERCY on me!
- I know you have the power to heal.
- I know you’re the Mesiah – the promised one.
- I have heard the miracles you performed.
- I want to SEE.
Key Points
Cry out. This blind man had an opportunity to get his miracle, so he CRIED out, not caring about anyone seeing him, or hearing him. 1 Cor 10:31
Be persistant. When he was calling on JESUS, others got annoyed with him, the blind beggar was tired of his situation, so he cried out even more. He was persistant in his actions. He wouldn’t let go. Doesn’t that remind you of soemone else? The woman, who just wanted to touch the garment of his clothes. Matthew 9:21
Seek for your Miracle. Blind beggar did not wait on anyone to cater to him. He CRIED out, so JESUS could hear him. Jesus was known as the compassionate man who healed, delivered, and set people free. Bartimaeus CAME for HIS miracle, and wasn’t going to let go.

Your Story is important to someone else. The details of your testimony are life to someone else. I couldn’t have spoken into strangers life, if I myself did not go through the battles. I can only speak because I know the pain, the hurt, and confusion. I pray God comforts us, and gives us the grace to tell our story, no matter how small the details are.
Let’s not hesitate to share our testimonies and help each other walk through the valleys, and reach our destinations together. With a sense of fulfillment, and helping others get there can be a rewarding and satisfying experience, because when we lift each other up, we don’t just reach our destinations, we thrive in them.
I’d love to share your Story on my SITE!
