*GET HIS ATTENTION - Part 2*


*By Pastor E O Gabriel  13 September 2024:Share*


SCRIPTURE: 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 - *Mark 10:49 KJV*


Blind Bartimeus got the attention of Jesus, and He stood still for him. 


*Since God is not a respecter of Persons, He can stand still for whoever pays the Price.*


*Let us see the Price the blind Bartimeus Paid?*


*(1)* The Price of Holiness.


The blind Man cast away his soiled Garment. 


*Holiness is an attribute of God, and He will never castaway anyone who is Holy* - *Job 8:20*


*(2)* Price of Worship.


He Worshipped Jesus as the son of David.


*Worshippers will always get the attention of God.*


The Bible says God dwells in the Praise of His People - *Psalms 22:3*


*Therefore, God dwells in two Places: in Heaven and in the Praise of His People.*


*Hence, while many seek God, God seeks out Worshippers because they Provide Him an Habitation on the Earth*- *John 4:23-24*


*Therefore, anyone who wants to get His attention must be willing to Pay the Price of Worship.*


*(3)* The Price of Faith in God.


Jesus told blind Bartimeus that his fayith has made him. whole - *Mark 10:52*


*This tells us that his Faith in God attracted the attention of Jesus.*


Bartimeus did not see Jesus as one of the available Options he had, but the only Option was available to him.


When the three Hebrew Men were cast into a fiery furnace, it was their Faith in God that attracted Jesus - *Daniel Chapter 3*


The Syrophenician  Woman got the attention of Jesus by her Faith. When she came to Jesus, He ignored her, but when He saw her Faith, He attended to her - *Matthew 15:22-28*


*Prayer:*

Father, Please help me to Pay the Price of getting Your attention all days of my Life in Jesus Christ Name.
