“Follow Jesus”
Monday, June 10, 2024Key Verse
““And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.” Mark 10:52
Text — Mark 10:49-52
Message
The man was blind and someone had to lead him every day to where he sat to beg. He looked up to others for everything. In times of danger, he could not run away by himself. Life was difficult and hopeless. He did not believe he would be able to see one day. The day Jesus opened his eyes, the people around were shouting him down and would have stopped him from receiving the most needed miracle of his life.
When Jesus opened his eyes, it would have looked like a dream to him. Then he made a good decision; the decision to follow Jesus in the way. Jesus is the best Person to follow. He can never lead you astray. The request “follow me” is very common in social media platforms. Sadly, many, if not all of these followers’ seekers have very little or nothing good to offer their followers. It pays to follow Jesus and serve Him wherever you go. He will not mislead you. He will take you through the righteous path to heaven.
