Jan 11th Sunday Service | Sermon - How May I Help You

Jesus invites a tangible, renewing presence into the gathering, calling for God’s power, peace, and fresh anointing to move through the sanctuary and into every life. The narrative shifts to Mark 10 and the roadside encounter with Bartimaeus, where Jesus—already headed to the cross—stops, calls, and asks a question that demands faith: “What do you want me to do for you?” That pause reveals a pattern of kingdom service: Jesus models radical availability, prioritizing those the world ignores and treating service as costly, incarnational humility rather than a transactional exchange. Stopping cost Jesus time and attention; stopping requires more than words—it requires presence, a readiness to be interrupted and to enter another person’s need.

Bartimaeus embodies persistent faith. Though rebuked by the crowd, he shouts, names Jesus as the Son of David, and refuses silence. His bold petition forces a clear reply from the Savior and demonstrates that faith must articulate its need before God: asking does not inform God but clarifies the worshiper’s trust and desire. When Bartimaeus asks specifically for sight, the restoration is not merely physical but vocational—sight reorients his path, unleashes his movement, and leads him to follow Jesus freely. The account underscores that personal petition, persistence, and being called by Christ transform marginality into mission.

The text calls the gathered to mirror this posture of service—stop for those on the margins, let faith speak, and be willing to serve like the One who emptied Himself. The invitation is framed practically and spiritually: whenever trouble comes, bring a clear, faithful petition; God hears the cries of the overlooked and responds in ways that redirect destiny. The closing prayer reaffirms God’s nearness in hospitals, homes, valleys, and mountaintops, asking for transformation that makes the people bolder, wiser, humbler, and more available to serve.

Key Takeaways

• 1. Jesus prioritizes the marginalized Jesus models kingdom attention by stopping for someone society had cast aside. That interruption shows service is not an add-on—it's central to God’s movement—and reveals that divine compassion locates the least and lifts them into purpose. The church’s legitimacy is measured by whether it answers that same call. [36:36]
• 2. Stopping requires time and presence To stop is to give the most precious resource: undivided attention. Presence costs schedule and comfort; it demands emotional availability and humility, and it creates a space where true healing and direction can begin. This stillness more often reveals God than hurried activity. [43:10]
• 3. Persistent faith refuses silence Bartimaeus shouted despite rebukes because his suffering made his plea unavoidable. Persistence exposes the depth of desire and forces heaven’s attention; it reframes marginalization as prophetic witness rather than shame. Continued calling refines faith into a voice that God answers. [50:39]
• 4. Personal petition clarifies desire When Jesus asks, “What do you want me to do for you?” He invites a precise, soul-level request. Articulating need is not to inform God but to shape the believer’s faith and readiness to receive transformation; specific petitions open the way for specific restorations. [54:28]

Just a few weeks ago, I was in the McDonald's drive through line, and I got the same thing out of the drive through line. Welcome to McDonald's. How may I help you? It it is a phrase that we hear often times all over the place, everywhere we go. The question seems to be a habit [33:46] but the intentions of the question don't seem to be for real. Because I can tell you everywhere I've gone in the last little bit when you in this in in what we consider the customer service area, folks don't seem to be too happy about asking you the question on their job, how may I help you? Now, y'all been to McDonald's. Y'all been been to Burger King. Y'all y'all been to some of these stores. Y'all y'all been in the line somewhere and have heard these phrases. All of you ask yourself in your head if you didn't say it out loud, I don't think they're very sincere. Really, if we do truth with ourselves, we're really saying they probably need to find a different job. The saddest part about it is often times, we show up at church sometimes and we get those same phrases. [34:33] We get the phrase that says, welcome to Saint John. How may I help you? And sometimes, it's so intense and it's so moving that we have to ask ourselves, should they be on that job? You know, you know, you you know, you know, everybody can't be a doorkeeper.

Maybe they need to work in the janitorial services or something. Not not not not to talk about the janitors or anything but but we we we all know how these things go. You know, we you you know how people feel But here in Mark chapter 10, Jesus asked the question that sounds ordinary, but it was eternal. Jesus said, what do you want me to do for you? This is not customer service. This is not politeness. [35:38] This is not a surface level religion. This is a question asked by the savior who already knows the answer but still requires faith to speak. Jesus is not at the beginning of his ministry. He's he's not experimenting with miracles. He he he's not building a following Jesus is on his way to the cross. He he is leaving Jericho heading to Jerusalem toward the betrayal, the trial, and the crucifixion, and ultimate his death. The cross was not a rumor now y'all. It was a destination and [36:13] time was short and the pressures of life were heavy and the crowd was large and Jesus made, made, made, made, made, made a move that that that was unexpected because the text gives us some insight on how important it was because it said, what? Jesus stopped. And when Jesus stopped, he said something. He said, call him. [36:36]"), Document(metadata={'source': "36:40"}, page_content="This this phrase, this one line ought to make the whole church stop for a minute and realize that service to god is important because Jesus stopped even on his way to his death to ask somebody, how may I help you? You see, Jesus [37:00] was the savior of the world. He was a lamb headed to the slaughter. He was carrying the weight of humanity's sin on his shoulders and walking a walk that would never be walked by another man. Yeah. He stopped. He stopped for a man that society had already passed by. [37:18] He stopped for a voice others had stopped hearing. He stopped for a blind beggar sitting where nobody expected change to happen. Church that tells us something about god. God is never too busy. Yeah. To show compassion. Never too focused on the desolation to miss those who are in distress. Never are so heavenly minded that he forgets about the human needs. God wants us to understand [37:48] that even on his way to death, he was concerned about people and that service was important. Yeah. Let me let me just tell y'all who Bartimaeus"), Document(metadata={'source': "38:01"}, page_content="was. Bartimaeus was not recognized for his achievements because he was in essence sitting on the side of the road. You know, like with four flat tires, unable to go nowhere. Bartimaeus wasn't defined by his potential or the promises that he made. He was sitting on the side of the road and when they described [38:12] him, they described him so that we would understand that he had some flaws, some problems, and some predicaments. If you're blind, you're physically handicapped. And and they were not concerned [38:34] about him like Jesus was concerned about him. He called Bartimaeus before he even healed him because he wanted to get his attention so he'd understand, I see you over there. Yeah. And I got something for you. He called him before he even gave his sight back because he wanted him to understand that there's something more important than sight in this world. He he called him before he sent him forward because he wanted him to understand that where you're going, you have to follow me. My lord. He asked the question, [38:58] what can I do for you? How many of us when we see somebody sitting on the sidelines, somebody who's been ostracized, alienated,"), Document(metadata={'source': "39:23"}, page_content="overlooked, left out, laughed at, even bother to ask that question. Most of the time, we just say, what can I do for you? [39:23] No spirit of incitement. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No movement in our heart. We're just saying those words because it is tradition. Uh-huh. To say, how may I help you? But Jesus here stopped and he stopped with a posture of service. He he stopped because he understood that what he was about to do would change this man's whole life. It would change how he lived. [39:56] It would change how he followed and it would change how he served. Jesus in these few verses lets us know that there is a priority in service. You you know, you you you've seen the UPS truck, the DHL truck, the Amazon truck. Give priority to service. They want you to understand if you call, we will come. If you need it, we will bring it to you. [40:17] If you order it, we will deliver it and Jesus here made a decision to do something for somebody who was in need despite of the fact that he had been looked over by the church. and some of his family members. Y'all read the text. Y'all read the text. Y'all y'all see what they did. You know, at first, they they had a different tone for him because they were telling him, if you read the entire text, be quiet. You know how we do it. Just be quiet. Don't don't don't say nothing. Jesus is coming. Can you imagine even back then with Jesus coming that we tell folks to be quiet, don't get excited but here today, we see people who do the same thing. You can't do that in church. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Let me let me me show you what Jesus does. Jesus also moved to a different space but when Jesus want you to understand the priority of service, he didn't speak from the king position. He said in the text, said, I [41:22]"), Document(metadata={'source': "41:25"}, page_content="came to serve something sometimes. I came to not to be served but to serve. Jesus used a word in the text called Dolos which is symbolic of what it means. You have no rights, no claims, no privileges, no expectations to be served. Jesus made himself a slave and analogy so that people would understand services about doing what is right and serving those who are less fortunate than yourself. Yeah. You you know sometimes you have to have some backup to what you say. [41:53] Philippians chapter two verse six to eight says, though he was in the form of god, he he emptied himself, taken the form of a servant. He humbled himself by becoming obedient to death even death on the cross. When you going to do god's work, there's going to be some punishment, some struggles, some strife, some stuff that's going to come but that was not what it's about. It's about the fact that you serve despite of it all. Yeah. Jesus stopped for another reason because service was required. He need to be there. He stopped. He used the verse that the text said he stopped, [42:32] and Jesus does not heal Bartimaeus right then and there. You know, Jesus said, let me I just need you to wait for a few minutes. I need to get a understanding. He he does not yell and structures to folks. He does not delegate it to people. He comes to a complete stop and let's just think for a minute what it means to stop when somebody's in need. Yeah. You know how fast we are. You know we're always going. When you stop, it cost you something. One of the most valuable things to human beings is not money but time because time is what creates money. [43:10] Stopping requires time. Stopping requires attention."), Document(metadata={'source': "43:17"}, page_content="Stopping requires you to be emotionally available. Yeah. Watch this y'all. You can be talking to somebody and not listening to them. You can be listening to somebody and not hearing them. [43:27] But when you stop and take attendance to who they are, it changes who you are in their lives because they understand that your stillness causes you to be in a place or in presence of them. In other words, when people are talking, you ought to just stop sometimes. Just sit back and take in what they're saying. Yes. Scripture affirms this because if you know anything about the Bible, god stopped for Hagar when she was cast out and unseen. [43:55] God stopped for Israel when their cries rose to his ear. Jesus stopped for the woman with the blood issue when the power left his body. Every time you touch god, every time you reach god, god will stop for you because god understands that he needs to be present in your situation. Amen. Amen. Some of some of us don't get that. The writer here argues with the disciples because when you see what Jesus did [44:28] and you see what they were doing. See, right before this passage of scripture, the disciples were having a debate about who was the greatest among the disciples. They"), Document(metadata={'source': "44:43"}, page_content="were arguing about hierarchy, positioning [44:45] for Jesus. Jesus responds and turns their whole world upside down. He says to them, whoever wants to be great among you must what? Become a servant. If you want to be a servant of god, if you want to be god for god to be proud of you, you got to have the ability to serve others. Amen. Amen. You know, and you gotta be available to serve. Yeah. Yeah. You you ever been to a restaurant and and and your service showed up and and, you know, they, you know, I'm just gonna use the one, you know, if you go to the restaurant that has, you know, the the the what they call the good biscuit, the garlic biscuits, and you have to keep asking them to keep bringing you back more biscuits and they know you don't ate all the biscuits and they see you looking at them and they you say, can I get another pan of biscuits? And, you know, they just don't wanna give em to you. So, you just have to keep and then the more they, the more you eat, the less they come. I ain't talking about none of y'all. I'm just talking about myself. They ain't really available for you. And and they will give you. Y'all don't heard all the excuses. [45:49] We just put a fresh batch in the oven. Well, why I got to wait for my biscuits? I see the other take because they not they not available in service because if they were in service business, they would find a way to appease that. But but notice something else about this text. Jesus service is centered on those who are marginalized, those who are looked over. [46:12] Notice what Bartimaeus was doing. He was outside the city. He was not standing. He was sitting. He was not self sufficient. He was what? Begging. Everybody knows about a position like that when you feel excluded because he was begging because he was in need and the people were passing him by telling him what? Be quiet. Don't talk. We it ain't the time for that. But when you're in need and you need something desperately, [46:39]"), Document(metadata={'source': "46:46"}, page_content="pain causes you to speak up. My lord. The church, the church today, we're called to mirror Jesus. We're called to look at how Jesus treated Bartimaeus and treat everybody that shows through the door the same way. [47:00] We are called to set the example for what service is. You ought not to go to McDonald's and expect service that you can't get in the church. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Y'all shouldn't have said this, should I? I probably shouldn't have said that. The text turns now y'all and after Jesus stopped, he had a posture of service and he called him and and it was a requirement for him to do something. So, when he called him, people started to talk. [47:32] Text kind of slows down because Bartimaeus had to do some stuff. He had to, continue to plead. The text said in Mark ten forty six, then they came to Jericho as Jesus and his disciples together with a large crowd were leaving the city of blind man. Bartimaeus was sitting on the roadside begging. Everything about this sinner's places Bartimaeus in the margins. He was physically limited, [47:58] socially stationary, economically powerless, and and geographically out of the flow of traffic. In other words, they were going by and and you know what happens on the freeway sometimes when you're going down the freeway? If a car breaks down, we've been given these instructions our whole life. Get off to the side of the road. In other words, they wanted him to get out the way but Jesus called him back into the way. You you you know how we do it. We're not concerned about people on the sidelines."), Document(metadata={'source': "48:27"}, page_content="We're concerned about the people who are going down the road. But Bartimaeus said, no, I'm not hearing that. He said, because I heard about a man who was passing through, who was leaving Jericho [48:36] on his way to Jerusalem and I feel like in my spirit, he had faith that if I call on his name, he will come and help me. The text said, he shouted. You ain't got to read it for me. He he he shouted. He did not whisper. He did not wait for permission. He wouldn't worry about the crowd approving what he was about to do. He shouted and not only did he shout, he shouted and pronounced who Jesus was. Can that tells me something about Bartimaeus because he knew who Jesus was. He by by calling Jesus the son of Bartimaeus makes a Masonic. [49:05] He makes a statement or makes a claim that Jesus is somebody important and because he's passing by and I know who his father is, I know what he can do. I'm sorry y'all. I'm sorry y'all. He he he didn't care what the crowd said. Oftentimes, when we're trying to get somewhere, we want to do something. We're worried about what the crowd says. We gotta stop worrying about the crowd because the crowd will show you who they are in due time. Text said in verse 48, many of them rebuked him and told him to what? Shut up. But you can't shut up when you know who's passing by. When you know that Jesus is coming or Jesus is on his way, it lets the world know I may be inconveniencing you but Jesus has something for me. Yeah. [50:00] You know, you can't ask me to be quiet when I'm suffering. When I'm in pain, when I'm going through, you have to realize that pain often times is packaged with a blessing because when you go through something for god, when you have a debilitating disease, when you have something that shows up in your life that you didn't plan for, that you didn't know, and then you know that the savior is able to take care of it, guess what you do? You"), Document(metadata={'source': "50:32"}, page_content="begin to scream. Yeah. You begin to shout. Yeah. You begin to call for help. His persistency [50:39] is about his faith because faith erases what you're going through and gives you a consciousness to see that god has something better for me. Some folks going to ignore you. Some people going to consider you marginalize. [50:54] Some folks going to laugh at you but faith still stands. So, if you're going through something, faith will cause you to survive or struggle in your life when man says, it ain't going to be alright. Yeah. Jesus is passing by. Yeah. He's moving. But Luke tells us something about this. [51:17] He says in Luke 18 chapter seven, will not god bring about justice for his chosen ones who cry out to him day and night? We see a part of our country right now who is looking over other folks who who who are shooting people, who who who are arresting people, who are beating people, and we sometimes think that god does not see it but I stand here to tell you today that there will be a shift in the atmosphere because god is going to stop and he going to call the names of those who who are going that do need help and when he calls them, they don't know. Stand up. Amen. And get ready to move because god is calling us to a new place. God is calling us to understand that those who are rejected may look down to the world but god has authority that he's going to place them there. Those who are rebuked have not lost their power because god has a new power for them. Those who are silent won't lose their grip because they have a faith in the fact that god has done something for them and if you don't believe me, notice what happens next.

The knees are obvious. He can't see. He on the side of the road. People trying to pass by him. His pain is visible but his blessing is on the way. Jesus says, what do you want me to do? In other words, how may I help you? Which brings me to my last point. The power of a personal petition. Oftentimes, we see folks who say they want something for god but they don't never ask god for nothing. They don't understand the mindset of what it takes to get god to get you but if you go back to the Bible, you can find out there's numerous places in the Bible where people cried out and god moved. The Israelites cried out in slavery and god sent a deliverer [53:35] because somebody ought to just tell me how good god has been to them because you ought to understand that when you're going through hell and high water that god can step in if you call his name. Yeah. Yes. Amen. You see, Bartimaeus has done everything in faith that he could do. He has heard that Jesus is passing by. He has cried out when others told him to be quiet. He he has persist when rebuked. [53:59] He has been called forward by Jesus. Now, the blind man stands face to face with Jesus. The crowd is watching.

Sometimes, you don't get nothing because your faith is not speaking to god. Sometimes, you ain't trusting god good enough to be able to call on god and say, lord, I need you right now. You have to have a personal petition with god. You may do it in the morning time. You may have to do it at lunch time. You may have to do it in your evening time and sometimes in life, when it gets so bad, you have to decide, you know what? I need to take a personal petition moment and talk to the lord about what's going on with me because faith will articulate what what your desires aren't from god. Every once in a while, you got to go to the lord when they get so hard and it gets so pressurized. [54:28] You have to say, lord, I need you right now. Lord, you may not call what I want you to but I need you right now. You have to be like Jeremiah said in thirty three and three, call to me and I will answer you. Tell you the great and unsearchable things you don't know right now. God knows but god still wants us to call. Yeah. Anybody here? Has made a up their mind that they going to call on god in times of trouble. The Bible says in Matthew seven and seven, Knock and the door will be open. [55:45] Asking does not inform god. Acts informs us. It clarifies our faith. It exposes our desires. It aligns our expectations with the trust we have in god and when Jesus asks you, what do you want me to do? You don't have to ask for money. You don't have to ask for food. You don't have to ask for protection. You don't have to ask for stability. You have to ask for what you really need and he said, rabbi, I want to seek. [56:16] In other words, rabbi, I don't want the confidence of a big house. I want to be able to move about by myself. You see, Bartimaeus was bound by vision but god gave him sight and because god gave him sight when he asked for something, that was a transformative moment in his life. He was restored because he asked for what he really needed. He didn't go and say, I'm not worried about where I'm going to eat. I'm not worried about what people may do to me. I'm not worried about my balance because I understand something if I get to a place that I can see, I can live differently."), Document(metadata={'source': "56:57"}, page_content="Sight changes everything.

I don't know about this y'all but have you ever seen Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles come on to a stage when they come on to a stage? Somebody's always got them body arm. That's how blind Bartimaeus was until Jesus restored his sight and he begin y'all to walk [57:22] differently, to talk differently. He begin y'all to move differently because when they gave him the sight back, they said this of it. They said, and he left following Jesus. Nobody was holding his arms. Nobody was holding his hand. He was walking and shouting because his sight had been restored. Every now and again, you got to go to god and tell god just what you want. You have to tell god because god is always asking the question, [57:47] how may I help you? He's not asking that the question to deny you. It's not a trick. It's not a test. It's an invitation to come on and go with me. I want you to do something for me this week. Whenever you find yourself in a problem, in a predicament, ask the lord for his help and see what he answer you. Jesus stopped to change lives. Church, let's step back and look at the text again.

Somebody ought to ask your neighbor, how may I help you? What can I do for you? The voice that speaks to you today is not a voice of somebody who's ever been always at the top. I've been down and I've been out but I had to look up. I've lost my sight before. Not literally but physically and I know how Bartimaeus must have felt.
