Sunday Worship Experience - 11/16/2025

Have you ever been so focused on what you want that you miss what God is doing right in front of you? In a powerful message titled "Blinded by the Need," Pastor Germany unpacks the stark contrast between James and John's spiritual blindness and blind Bartimaeus's spiritual sight from Mark 10. While Jesus was preparing for His sacrificial death, James and John were consumed with their desire for positions of power, revealing how spiritual blindness can distort our priorities and damage church unity. Yet, in the same passage, a physically blind beggar demonstrates remarkable spiritual clarity, recognizing Jesus as the Son of David and receiving both sight and salvation through his faith. Pastor Germany masterfully weaves these narratives to challenge us about our own potential blindness – whether to financial security, validation, ambition, or material possessions. Through vivid examples and passionate delivery, he reminds us that true spiritual sight means seeing Jesus for who He really is and living accordingly. The urgent call rings clear: in a world of distractions and competing desires, we must examine our hearts and ask ourselves if we're seeing clearly in the Spirit or being blinded by our needs.
