There’s Power In Your Shout!!!
I. Introduction...
Turn with me to Mark 10:46
How many came to have church this morning?
How many brought your shout with you this
morning?
How many knows that you shouldn’t have
walked out your house this morning without
your shout?
God didn’t call you to sit on the back pew with
your mouth closed all morning?
He called you to the front line and He said
bring your shout with you!
And so long as your shouting His Word...
So long as your shouting God’s Word...
How many knows that it shall not return void.
Amen?
If He said it I believe it! Amen?
And He said if I say it I’ll recieve it!
Oh Praise the Lord!
How many came ready to recieve this morning?
How many came expecting something this
morning?
Well, I hope you came ready to shout to the
Lord!
Amen?
How many are looking for a mighty move of
God?
Well, I hope you brought your shout with you!
How many need a miracle this morning?
How many are in need of a blessing?
I hope your ready to shout it out this morning
Church!!!
How many are sick and afflicted this morning
and need a healing?
Get ready to shout!
How many have unsaved loved ones and want
them saved?
Get ready to shout!
Cause there’s power in your shout this
morning?
Pro 18:21 says...Death and life are in the
power of the tongue:
There is power in your shout this morning to
speak death and life into existence!
How much more so everything else in between?
James said blessings and curses flow from the
same mouth! Amen?
Well, who came seeking a blessing this
morning?
Your blessing is in your mouth!
If there’s a need in this house this morning all
you’ve got to do is shout it out to Jesus. Amen?
And it shall be done!
Let’s look at our scripture:
Mar 10:46 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 Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
Mar 10:47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
Mar 10:48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.
Mar 10:49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
Mar 10:50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
Mar 10:51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
Mar 10:52 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.
In our text, we see that the shout of Blind
Bartemeus caused a powerful move of God.
Amen?
His shout caught the attention of Jesus,
and in the end caused a miraculous healing
that gave Bartemeus his sight.
There was power in Bartemeus’ shout!
And I am convinced today that we can have the
same power...
We can have the same kind of impact in our
shout as Bartemeus had back then.
Scripture says in verse 49 that his shout was so
powerful it brought God to a stand still!
An omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient God
who is ever moving came to a stand still that
day.
Because of the shout of a blind man,
There’s only three things in scripture that ever
brought Jesus to a stand still and one of them
was the shout of Bartimeus.
How many want to shout like Bartimeus this
morning?
II. The Shout of Faith...
Well, we need to be shouting in faith. Amen?
Verse 47 says he heard Jesus was coming and
started shouting?
He didn’t even wait for Jesus to get to him!
He didn’t wait for something to move him!
He expected his shout to move Jesus!
How many knows that Bartimeus was blind?
He couldn’t see Jesus coming!
He couldn’t see who was coming up the road!
All he knew was he heard it was Jesus!
He never saw Jesus perform any miracles!
But he had heard of the miracles Jesus had
performed!
He was walking by faith and not by sight!
And his faith came by hearing. Amen?
And as soon as he heard he started to shout.
How many knows we need that kind of shout
this morning?
That shout of faith!
