Two blind men sitting by the road shouted something the crowd didn't want to hear: "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!" The crowd told them to shut up. Jesus stopped and asked them a question that changes everything: "What do you want me to do for you?" In this episode of the "Jesus the Mystery" series, Dave Scherrer unpacks Matthew 20:29-34 and reveals what's really happening beneath the surface of this healing story. These blind men could see what the crowd could not — that Jesus was the Messiah King. And when Jesus healed their eyes, He answered their deeper need too. They received their sight and followed Him. A covenant fulfilled. This Ash Wednesday, the same question lands on us: What do you want Jesus to do for you? === CHAPTERS === 0:00 Introduction — The Video Log Format 0:45 Ash Wednesday and the Lenten Season 1:45 Jesus Walks to Jerusalem for the Last Time 2:45 Two Blind Men Cry Out 4:00 What "Lord, Son of David" Really Means 5:30 The Crowd Tells Them to Shut Up 6:15 Jesus Stops and Asks THE Question 7:30 The Covenant in Their Request 8:45 Sight Is Temporary, Salvation Is Forever 9:30 What Do You Want Jesus to Do for You? 10:15 Closing — Peace === CONNECT WITH US === Website: https://100foldministries.org Subscribe to the Newsletter: https://100foldministries.org/subscribe Email Dave: dave@100foldministries.org === SCRIPTURE REFERENCES === Matthew 20:29-34 — Two blind men healed near Jericho 2 Samuel 7 — The Davidic covenant and messianic prophecy John 1:29 — "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world" === ABOUT THIS PODCAST === Kingdom Offerings is the podcast of 100 Fold Ministries, where Dave Scherrer unpacks the offerings of Scripture with a special emphasis on the Gospel of the Kingdom.
