What do you want Jesus to do for you?
Often, we ask Jesus for things that may not be in His plan. We ask for things and sometimes He gives us something else. Which may be frustrating at times, but He only wants what's best for us. And that's why we have to have faith in Him and we also have to start asking for the right things. Having faith in Jesus will give us exactly what we need.
In Mark 10: 46-52 is the story of the blind man, Bartimaeus. Bartimaeus knew and trust Jesus as the Healer. He had never met or talked to Him before, but he had heard about Him and had complete faith in who He was. When Jesus asked Bartimaeus what He wanted, everyone was confused because he was blind and it was should of been obvious what he wanted but he was also a beggar and could of asked for money or food. So, Jesus tested his faith and instead, Bartimaeus used his faith in Jesus' ability to heal Him and asked for His sight.
Bartimaeus faith gave him his sight.
When voices in our heads are trying to speak to us, telling us to be quiet. Telling us to not talk to God. Trying to keep us away from Him, that's when we have to call out to the Lord so that He may hear us. He will meet our needs. All we have to do is have faith.
Never doubt the Lords power, step out in faith. He will provide. He is our healer and He is calling out for us just like we do for Him.
We need to drowned out all the other voices and listen close and hard for Jesus so that we may receive what the Lord wants us to have.
