  1. Giving by the above things i have said now i can assure you that life can become a complex thing But no matter what Never Give Up!
  2. From the Text of Today we can see the complexity of the life of a man called Blind Bartimaeus: in verse 4 the Bible made us to understand 1. He was blind to the extent that Blind became part fo his name.
  3. Probably he was born blind and never saw the sun or colour for one day
  1. He was or dwelled in Jericho a place of hinderance - The walls of Jericho. A terrible place Man going from Jerusalem to Jericho encountered robbers. They beat him almost half to death.
  1. He was a Beggar: Poor dependant, could not make ends meet. No Association etc.
  2. In the midst of his complexity, challanges, Problem or what have you? Blind Bartimaeus decieded and determined Never to Give Up.

From Scriptural Referance There are 5 Things that Blind Bartimaeus Never gave Up on. Therefore by the Principles of Application they are also the 5 Things you must Not Give Up on in life.

  1. Your Vision: Despite that Blind Bartimaeus was blind he saw in his heart that one day he is going to see.
  2. This is why when the oppurtunity came he did not miss it
  3. Do not give up on your God given Vision in life.
  4. No matter how rough keep persuing your God given Vision
  5. Your vision is your future your alternate destination
  1. The truth you have heard
  2. Don't give up on the truth you have heard
  3. In Mk 10:47 The Bible sais when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth.
  4. Jesus is the Truth Jn 14:6 ''Jesus said to him i am the way the truth and the life no one comes to the father except through me''
  5. Jn 8:32 says''And you shall know the truth an the truth shall make you free''
  6. Jn 8:36 says ''Therefore if the son makes you free you shall be free indeed.
  7. The word of God is also the Truth Jn 8:31-32
  8. Jesus is the word of God that became flesh Jn 1:1,14. Verse 14 says''And the word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we behold his glory,the glory of the only begotten of the father,full of grace and truth''
  9. So in this Life you must not give yp on Jesus and the word of God.
  10. Jesus must become your personal Lord and saviour
  11. You must continously and consistanlly heard, read and study the word of God which is the bible.
  1. Cry Out: Never give up or cry out a. In Mk 10:47 the Bible said that when Blind Bartimaeus heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth ''He began to cry out and say Jesus thou son of david have mercy on me''
  2. This speaks of prayer, you must Never give up on praying
  3. You must not be tired of prayers if you must receive continous solutions in Life
  4. You must cry out for divine mercy like Bartimaeus did. The mercies God showed David.
  5. In Lk 18:1 the Bible said''That Men ought always to pray, and not to faint(or lose heart).
  6. 1 Thes 5:17 says''Pray without ceasing.
  7. So you must not give up on prayer because by it you call upon the Almighty God to Supernaturally intervene in your situation and turn things around for you.
  8. Dealing with the Oppositions:
  9. In Mk 10:47-48 the Bible said that as soon as Blind Bartimaeus began to cry out Many charged him that he should bold his peace.
  10. That is he should stop praising his vision, stop working and walking on the truth he has just heard and that he should dtop praying.
  11. Many a time in life satanic power and people agents are there to stop you and make you to give up.
  12. But you must refuse to Give Up.
  13. Never Give Up in delaying with the opposition
  14. You deal with in power after the order of Eph 6:10-19 and 2 Cor 10;3-6
  15. You deal with the opposition in wisdom after the order of Neh 4:6-23 and Esther 5 &7
  16. Psa 70:2 says ''Let them be ashamed and confronted in that seek after my soul. Let them be turned bacjward and put to confusion that dere my hunt.
  17. Psa 92:11 says ''Mine eyes shall see my desire in mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rises up against me''
  18. So you must never give up until god deals with your oppositions.
  19. Your Faith: Never give up in your faith.
  20. In Mk 10:52 the Bible says ''And Jesus said unto him, go thy way, thy faith hath made thee whole and immediately he recieved his sight and followed Jesus in the way''
  21. Your faith may tested and shaken but Never Give Up your faith in God, your faith in Jesus and his word.
  22. 1 Jn 5:4 said ''For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world; and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
  23. Eph 6:16 says '' Above all talking the should of faith, where with ye shall be able to ground all the fiery darts of the wicked''
  24. Rom 1:17 says the righteousness (Acts) of God revealed from faith to faith; as it is written; The just shall live by faith.
  25. If you give up on your faith you stop living.
