Welcome to our new project, the Daily Bible Devotional. The goal is to help you understand and apply

0:09.6

scripture as you go through a New Testament Bible read five days a week, Monday through Friday,

0:15.5

as we move from Matthew straight through to Revelation. In under four minutes each morning, we will recap the chapter,

0:22.8

make some application, present thought questions for the day, and offer a prayer together.

0:28.6

I'm excited about exploring God's word with you, so let's get started.

0:34.2

Welcome today, let's explore Mark Chapter 10 together. This chapter is packed with events. The Pharisees

0:41.5

question Jesus about divorce and the rich young ruler turns from Jesus when he's asked to sell all that he has.

0:48.1

Jesus speaks of how difficult it is for the rich to be saved. The apostles have given up everything,

0:53.3

but they struggle to understand that the

0:55.1

mission will cost Jesus his life, and theirs as well. James and John ask for positions of glory,

1:01.7

but Jesus informs them that great sacrifice will be required first. A blind beggar approaches asking Jesus

1:07.8

to heal him. The disciples try to silence him, but Jesus heals him because of his

1:12.6

faith. There is a common thread of love and mercy throughout all these stories. Everyone needs to

1:19.7

learn that the kingdom is about caring for others. Let's look at that a bit more closely.

1:26.1

The Pharisees asked about divorce, but that was not God's

1:29.5

will because it would be unloving and consequential for the wife who was sent away. The rich man was

1:35.5

asked to sell his goods and give them to help the poor, but he did not have the heart to do it.

1:41.1

The apostles sought places of honor because they struggled to see the mission as being

1:45.2

about others. They even tried to prevent a blind man from being healed. Jesus came to earth because he

1:51.6

loves us and wants to provide blessings for us. His followers will make decisions based on how they

1:57.9

affect other people. We are here to love God and our neighbor with sacrificial love.

2:05.1

I certainly want to get better at that. Maybe these questions can help.
