I've been looking forward to it in your little Lord
-
in the house today on you even I believe God
-
wants to help somebody. Christ is is anybody here needs
-
help today? Surely somebody does. The Lord has spoke to
-
my heart to preach this message. And I thought of
-
the house, gonna.
-
Get on there for a minute, and he didn't hit him.
-
He so that's all right, thought, Amen, all right, let's
-
get relaxed here. Calm down. Amen, you now see me.
-
I'll see you what he say.
-
We have church.
-
But if you let kindred spirit out.
-
Je me as a praise God, us have church here today.
-
I want to appreciate the accommodation. It's the place to stay.
-
I appreciate h that beautiful water. I a little that
-
water and H yeah, I think it was. I don't
-
remember just exactly how long ago now, twenty eleven. I
-
had my first stroke and it wasn't a bad one.
-
It wasn't too bad. I bounced back pretty quick from
-
that one. Then I had the second stroke, and uh,
-
it was pretty bad. And then the third stroke was terrible,
-
and now I thought I was gonna die on that
-
third stroke but.
-
You know, God's seen a reason. I didn't have nothing
-
to do with it.
-
I kind of feel like I was on my way out,
-
but God had a reason to keep it around.
-
Then I had COVID nineteen and they said he ain't
-
gonna make it. I didn't know where I was at
-
in the world and all I had no clue what
-
was going on. And uh, well we bounced back from back.
-
After seventeen days in the hospital.
-
My son called down every day and house my dad
-
doing and they said, well, he used to make your progress.
-
He said what the pastor said, want to go, and
-
then talked about progress, won't go, We need to make progress.
-
Never did I regress, but I progressed email.
-
Then two years later they said, you gotta have an
-
open heart surgery.
-
Funny thing. I was laying on the table there and
-
the heart caath. No, you don't have two.
-
Heartcas in my in my time, and uh one of
-
them they put me to sleep.
-
Well, this one they didn't put me to sleep.
-
And the doctor talked to me the whole time, and
-
he said, mm, it's saying good.
-
How may that here? God man, what's going on?
-
Finally he said, I ain't gonna be to let you
-
go home. He said, you lived too far away. I
-
was about thirty five minutes from the hospital.
-
He said, you live too far away. He said, I'm
-
having to punch in the hospital. That was on Monday.
-
On Wednesday morning, they'd done heart surgery, and God brought
-
us through that.
-
Thank God. I know, you know, we've all got a time,
-
We're all appointed at that time to die. We're all
-
gonna die one day. But as for now, I'm here
-
with you.
-
Thank God.
-
Let's have everybody, hey man, all right. In the Book
-
of Mark, chapter number ten.
-
Good secret, sister Frock, good friend of ours, and some mothers.
-
Here for Aaron.
-
Good. See.
-
We don't know everybody. We know a few of you.
-
He went on.
-
Mark, chapter ten, verse from A forty six. And they
-
came to Jericho. And as he went out of Jericho
-
with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus,
-
the son of Tomaus, sat by the way highway side daddy.
-
And when you.
-
Heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to
-
cry out and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have
-
mercy on me. And many charged him that he should
-
hold his peace and he cried the more and a
-
great deal, Thou, son.
-
Of David, have mercy on me.
-
And Jesus stood sty and commanded him to be called.
-
And they called the blind men, saying, unto him be
-
of good comfort.
-
Rise.
-
He calleth thee or the privilege, And he, casting away
-
his garment, rose and came to Jesus. And Jesus answered
-
and said unto him, what wilt thou that I should do?
-
Unto thee? The blind men said, unto him, Lord, that
-
I might receive my sight.
-
And Jesus said, unto him, go thy way, Thou faith.
-
Has made thee hole.
-
And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus in
-
the way.
-
Pray with his father.
-
We love you, Cadre, so grateful today to me standing
-
in the presence of God God. Pray God this morning
-
the Lord, that the will of God be done.
-
Pray that you touch every.
-
Heart and every life.
-
We pray that you're minister to us to day. God
-
through your word, God, give us a great all? Can
-
we pray? And we ask it all in the name
-
of Jesus.
-
And everybody said amen, And he let it be speaking.
-
If the Lord will help me this morning I want
-
to preach on this simple thought, face to face with
-
what I need. Bartimaeus is where he's been now for
-
a long time, perhaps too will. It seems to me
-
though he's been waiting for a certain sound every day.
-
He's waiting on that certain sound, that certain footstep, that
-
certain whisper, maybe that certain voice.
-
He knows, but he's not for sure if he's going to.
-
Recognize it when he hears it has been a long way,
-
My goodness, say that you've been there.
-
I've been there, You've been there. We've been there.
-
When it was such a long way it seemed like
-
it wasn't going on ever end.
-
But we waited, didn't we? What else do you do?
-
Church?
-
What else can you do? The only thing I know
-
to do is wait? And that what's the word of
-
God tells us.
-
Wait upon the Lord.
-
Man.
-
How many knows what it is to wait on God?
-
You know, when we wait on God we grow stronger, we.
-
Grow stronger, and then the day comes. Everything is pretty
-
much the same.
-
And always as begin. But then Jesus artimaus can't see.
-
He hears the noise.
-
He inquires us to what that noise is? He's told
-
it's not for you. Don't you worry about it any
-
anything you need to be concerned about. His expectation is
-
now through the roof, so to speak. He stops Jesus
-
with his Christ, and then Jesus stops in his tracks
-
and he calls from all of Maatus. Suddenly, now he's
-
face to face. WHOA, I love it, don't you?
-
I love it when.
-
I'm face to face with the Lord? How mean is ever?
-
Being face to face with the Lord? Part of mass
-
face to face with the Lord, and he realizes what
-
he's being needed and what he needs right now is
-
before him. What an awesome tender church, to know that
-
what you need you ain't gonna have to wait on
-
it no longer. What you need is standing right before you.
-
You're looking out ball out or with what you need.
-
I feel like there's somebody here today.
-
You're in great need.
-
You need to stand and look out ball at our
-
ball with exactly what it is that you. Finally he's
-
face to face with what he've been needing for a
-
long time. There's two things to remember. He wanted his
-
healing and he wasn't leaving with that God determination. I
-
need my healing. I may not get my healing immediately.
-
But I need my healing. If I'm not gonna get
-
it immediately, then I'm gonna wait on him.
-
I'm gonna I'm not leaving. I'm gonna stay right here right.
-
I know we can't stay at church day and night.
-
I know we can't do that, and I understand that.
-
And I'll tell you something. You don't have to stay.
-
At church.
-
When you realize what you need is coming.
-
When you realize that you can get what you need
-
from God. He it pays us to stay faithful to God.
-
It's pays us to stay ready because in an hour
-
that you're not taking about God, I come by and
-
he'll touch your body, He'll touch your mind.
-
They'll give you what you need.
-
He'll make everything good that's been bad for a long
-
time to call.
-
Now.
-
God knows you, and he knows what you need, and
-
he knows what He's gonna give it to you. But
-
you've gotta need paper to wait upon the lawd every man,
-
because it's gonna be a glorious moment. It's gonna be
-
a glorious time. Amen, when we see him taste the face,
-
any lays a handle on its amen.
-
And heels our note d any man.
-
I don't know. Listen.
-
Maybe it's having to wait for a long time.
-
I don't know.
-
Maybe it's just because bart of me Is had been.
-
Blind all his life a man, but somehow or another
-
he knew that.
-
Jesus have one he needed.
-
I'll come over.
-
Here now you know today where ye he's gonna come from?
-
You know today?
-
Who's gonna heal you? Why don't we wait?
-
To Amen?
-
You may have to wait just a little hour longer,
-
any man, he knows your need.
-
But yet time, Amen, he'll heal. He'll heal you. He'll
-
touch you in his timing. And until that time.
-
You're gonna have to await. The Namas waited a long time.
-
Maybe you waited a long time. But I'm gonna tell
-
you something.
-
That hitter he is in the house.
-
They in the way, Baker is in the house. But
-
need me the is in the house. Can somebody say, man.
-
For monamas?
-
There first came that invitation, and he'd been waiting, he
-
had been listening, he had been looking for it.
-
Now came the invitation. And then after the invitation came,
-
there was a great.
-
Realization, Amen, that God is about to give me what
-
I've had neither or a little time.
-
You can't you can't help me get heppy.
-
You can't help me get signed, Amen, because you know
-
you're about to.
-
Get what you needed for a long long time.
-
And my misery, misery, missmn, A man is about to
-
go out the door.
-
Right, they're come on here now.
-
Ain't dding great things?
-
Amen?
-
All it's been a tree that's been a long time coming.
-
Now, there's many times when you didn't know for sure
-
if you just don't get.
-
It at all? Now went all of a sudden.
-
Now you're standing in the presence.
-
A man of the old lighty and man no love.
-
Now who is Abel the Law, who's not only able,
-
but will and can and does and did?
-
Amen?
-
And so we just wait until the Lord news.
-
Remember when Elijah heard the still small voice and he
-
knew the things were about to get better.
-
Well, I looked at it this way. Barna mass heard
-
it too. Only listen.
-
Only it was in the excitement of the crowd, Amen,
-
the rally of the crowd from Barna Manes. They too,
-
there was some there. They too knew that Barni Maez
-
had a great need. Not everybody there was mean of
-
bart Ams. Not everybody treated him like he wasn't nobody
-
not everybody was mean too. There was some there. I
-
believe that rallied upon him. They were just like today.
-
They were for him. Poor mornins. I'd like to see
-
get this kid.
-
I'd like to see God touch you. I'd like to
-
see normal.
-
There's anybody though, so they man, they were rooted for
-
him by somehow, Brother Rock.
-
I feel like it.
-
Was that crowd then he heard he man, and that
-
crowd was excited.
-
That crowd was poor him.
-
That crowd knew they seen Jesus walking through the town.
-
Hey, they knew he was theirs.
-
Hey and she's okay, shad, Hey, God and good things
-
we're in their hearts and minds. Hey man, come on now,
-
I want to kiss somebody here this morning. Now, Hey man,
-
he's here.
-
Heyday. Whatever you have ito like, whatever is you been
-
going through?
-
Here?
-
Like whatever it is you ever gets right now? I
-
want to know he's in there.
-
Why come on, he's passing to get your will, amad
-
that he wants to hear from you. I think it's
-
somebody would just cry it out. Now, there's somebody with
-
just hear kid's heart. There's somebody would call his name.
-
I mean it's topped right here. Hit this certain right now.
-
Amen in motion for you to come or sending for
-
you to come. Amaen, now you get what you need today?
-
I said, you give what you y'all have right now,
-
Adam that go with that, go in.
-
God can't touch you right now. Let's just say that
-
was a great desperation on funivation's part. I want you
-
to understand this. Now, this this desperation. I mean, you're
-
god man. After all, he had been through.
-
Day and night, every single moment, every second that passed by.
-
What he had been through, there was a lot of
-
desperation built up, a lot of desperation.
-
He was a desperate human being.
-
Oh yeah, I want to understand something here. He didn't
-
like being where he was. You don't like being where
-
you walk. It didn't feel good and it didn't have
-
a good fitling. It just I don't know to have
-
been there, so I don't really know, but I know this.
-
It couldn't have been good. He had been there a
-
long time. Desperation had built that. I'm gonna tell you,
-
when desperation gets built upon you, they ain't no devil
-
the hell gonna stop.
-
You gonna call in Jesus' name. Hear me, you heard
-
the more they have no devila.
-
Hell, it's gonna stand in the lake church are outside
-
the church.
-
Hey man, that's gonna stop you from calling his name?
-
You see it.
-
Perhaps perhaps you're here today and you have a great
-
need in your body and great need in your life,
-
but you're not willing to be desperate enough.
-
You're not willing to sew that desperation.
-
Maybe you're not mad, you just don't have that type
-
of desperation built up yet.
-
Come on, now, you know I don't want to tell
-
somebody here this morning. You need to get sick.
-
And tired of.
-
You need to get sick and tired. You need to
-
build it up, you.
-
Until you can't hold it standing no more God, until
-
tired of your scream out.
-
It doesn't matter who's looking, little matter who's here. He
-
made the matter of the governor anybody to be here
-
with matter and man.
-

-
of the way things are. I've had enough, You've had enough,
