Mark 7:31-37
People travel?
But Jesus' journey was like people [memories. Historic sites. It's not a trip to enjoy
liberty and life to those who are dying and suffering
To bring you joy...
If you look at the recent actions of Jesus,
Blessings to many...
When we arrived in Galilee today, many people gathered...
Then bring the patient out as usual.
In view of this, Jesus' travels
To give life and benefit...Looking at...
1. Who is deaf or dumb?
32 “People came to Jesus with the deaf and the deaf”
Someone took someone who was deaf and dumb
To Jesus.. = Asking for healing..
I don't know if this person is a family member or a local.
But it looked like it was pitiful...
ex] Marriage between persons with disabilities = wife [ear/blind] husband [early hear]
Having a child = I can hear you crying = I'm always in tension...
He brought such a person to the Jesus of the rumors and begged him...
We go through a lot of pain in our lives...
There may be several problems
Today we focus on [ears and mouth]...
If we take a closer look at ourselves
Deaf or dumb...
Outwardly, he looks fine [healthy, well-spoken, successful, intoxicated...]
Worship, offering, hymn, prayer...
But if you don't understand God's Word properly
♣ deaf
The action is zeal, but there is no realization...
By listening to the Word = Realizing - Service, prayer, love, evangelism... = I can't do it... = But even if I listen to it, if there is no realization...
*as if realizing** as if hearing, nod his head...
However, % may be nodding because of choking.. % As others see
Because of the face... but it's okay if you don't realize today...
Disciples = Jesus explains diligently, but they do not understand what he is saying = Even though the disciples were working together...
We are no better than disciples
♣ Those who are speechless
If you look closely at people's lips, you can see the diversity...
&I have a big mouth compared to my face, but a small person
& “I need to be small, but I am a big person
&A person with a very large or very small face and mouth
&By the way, someone who looks like a cherry
A person who looks like a descendant of &Kunta Kinte
Concealed with rouge in various shapes, but ugly lips
Still... ex] I also tried rouge on my lips...
you are all pretty
However, even if there are many kinds of lips, if they do not have the value of lips,
it's dumb
If you don't do this properly, [not qualified to be a prosecutor or lawyer]
As X = If this doesn't work, you're dumb.
If you can't open your mouth to the people around you
This is a modern dumbass that can't be fooled
Today I am deaf. Are you dumb or not?
2. Pray...
32 “He came to Jesus and begged him to put his hands on him.”
People took [ears. deaf] and laid hands on Jesus....
They believe that Jesus' coming is an opportunity that will never come again...
So, not entrusting the patient = hanging on to the patient
We want to solve it even though we are [deaf]
It's unfortunate if you don't tell the Lord next to you.
No one else knows if I am [deaf]
Don't pretend you're not [deaf and dumb] and ask Jesus...
Prayer is an act of taking possession of God
Do not think of prayer as a means of fulfilling one's wishes.
[If you get a response = long vacation...]
Prayer is not to satisfy my satisfaction = It is to satisfy God's satisfaction...
So, let's be captivated by God through prayer.
Make time for prayer.
Need to pray, but don't have time to pray?
It is unfortunate if there is no time for prayer = Let's pray. [Greetings]
When he asked Jesus, Jesus took him away.
33 “And he put his fingers into his ears, and touched his tongue,
This action was not because Jesus was incapable of
To make you aware that power comes from heaven...
He looked up to heaven and sighed = “Ebadah” = Open!
When you ask the Lord...
Like this, you also prayed to God,
My ears are open from today
May the miracle of loosening the hardened tongue happen...
3. Becoming an Evangelist
36 “Jesus warned them, “Tell no one.” But the more he warned them, the more they preached.”
Let this man open his ears and loose his tongue
Even with this person, the evangelism unit even to the witnesses around him...
everywhere you go
“Jesus made my ears hear…”
Proud [evangelism] that “Jesus healed the dumb”
ex] Disciples = They do not understand. Those with hardened tongues.
Journey on the night that Jesus was arrested... Mark's Upper Room - Loosen the tongue
So if your tongue is stiff today
Be proud...
So in my life I have led many people to the Lord...
