It is quite interesting to me how we want so many things in life, particularly from the Lord, without expecting to do anything to get those things that we want. We want to be healed but don't eat right; we want a better position in our jobs but refuse to go back to school. We would like to have a better house or living space but refuse to budget; we want to get married but lack responsibility; we want to be a preacher/teacher but refuse to study the Word.
You've got to Do Something.
Many times we think that if we are saved, and are living for God things will fall into place. There is, however, something required of us. In our text, Jesus and his disciples came into Jericho where a blind Bartimaeus was, Jesus was passing by not stopping to heal or anything like that, he was leaving town and the blind man heard of Jesus passing by. He knew that he had to Do Something, and because he was blind; he wanted healing but not being able to see he decided that he was going to shout and call upon Jesus.
Stop waiting on God to do everything, we must participate in our deliverance and Do Something to bring about God's attention to the situation so that he can provide the solution. Blind Bartimaeus activated his faith and his works and got his healing. He did something to get Jesus's attention. What is it that you've been crying about and carrying for years? Today the Lord says Do Something, and I'll do the rest. In other words, participate in your deliverance.
Do Something.
