SAVOR TIME with outcasts.

Luke 18:35-43

“As he drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. 36And

hearing a crowd going by, he inquired what this meant. 37They told him, ‘Jesus of

Nazareth is passing by.’ 38And he cried out, ‘Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on

me!’ 39And those who were in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, ‘Son of David,

have mercy on me!’”

Luke 18:35-43

“40And Jesus stopped and commanded him to be brought to him. And when he came near, he asked him, 41’What do you want me to do for you?’ He said, ‘Lord, let me

recover my sight.’ 42And Jesus said to him, ‘Recover your sight; your faith has made

you well.’ 43And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave

praise to God.”

Luke 18:35-43


SAVOR TIME with outcasts.

Luke 18:35-43


Take the Initiative.Luke 19:1-27

“He entered Jericho and was passing through. 2And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax

collector and was rich. 3And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on

account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature. 4So he

ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was

about to pass that way.”

Luke 19:1-10

“5And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, ‘Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for I must stay at your house today.’ 6So he hurried and came down and received him joyfully.

7And when they saw it, they all grumbled, ‘He has gone in to be the guest of a man

who is a sinner.’”

Luke 19:1-10

“And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, ‘Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded

anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold.’9And Jesus said to him, ‘Today

salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. 10For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.’”

Luke 19:1-10
