TODAY'S READING: 2 Sam.7; 1 Chr. 17; Ps. 2; Mt. 20
SCRIPTURE
2 Sam. 7:22 [22] "How great you are, Sovereign LORD! There is no one like you, and there is no God but you, as we have heard with our own ears.
Matt. 20:29-34 As Jesus and his disciples were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed him. [30] Two blind men were sitting by the roadside, and when they heard that Jesus was going by, they shouted, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!" [31] The crowd rebuked them and told them to be quiet, but they shouted all the louder, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!" [32] Jesus stopped and called them. "What do you want me to do for you?" he asked. [33] "Lord," they answered, "we want our sight." [34] Jesus had compassion on them and touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him.
OBSERVATION

In Matt. 20, we find to Blind men shouting; "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!"

APPLICATION
Every now and then I loose sight of my Savior, I loose sight of Jesus. The way to regain focus for me is to shout: GOD IS GREAT, THERE IS NO ONE LIKE YOU, NO OTHER GOD BUT YOU. Believing that, follow him.
PRAYER
Holy Spirit,
Give me eyes to see a Saviour
Give me ears to hear your voice.
Give me the boldness, to proclaim Your Love.
TO SHOUT, GOD IS GREAT! THERE IS NOT ONE LIKE YOU!
