What do you want Me to do for you?

And Jesus stopped and commanded him to be brought to him. And when he came near, he asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” Luke 18:40

This question was spoken by Jesus to a blind beggar as He was walking along a road heading to Jericho.

There was a crowd passing by following Jesus and the beggar cried out “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me”?

The people around the beggar rebuked Him and told him to be silent. But this just caused the beggar to cry out more.

Jesus stopped and asked the beggar what he wanted Jesus to do for him? The beggar responded “Let me recover my sight” and Jesus said “Recover your sight; your faith has made you whole”.

The beggar was healed and followed Jesus giving glory to God. And, all the people who witnessed this miracle, gave praise to God.

Today, think about Jesus asking you the same question He asked the beggar. What can I do for you?

You have to ask Jesus with a resolute attitude understanding He has power and dominion over all things. Ask by faith without wavering unbelief. Remember, you are petitioning the Son of God who died for you on the Cross.

The ending to this miracle is the reason Jesus healed the beggar. The beggar and those around Him all gave glory to God. They believed in Jesus!
