Lives were transformed as Jesus passed through towns and met people where they were — two disciples seeking truth, a lonely woman at a well, and a blind man crying out for mercy. Each encounter reveals His compassion, His power, and His desire to bring people into a living relationship with Himself.
Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation
John 1:35-39 “35 Again, on the morrow, there stood John and two of his disciples.36 And, looking at Jesus as he walked, he says, Behold the Lamb of God.
37 And the two disciples heard him speaking, and followed Jesus.38 But Jesus having turned, and seeing them following, says to them, What seek ye? And *they* said to him, Rabbi (which, being interpreted, signifies Teacher), where abidest thou?39 He says to them, Come and see. They went therefore, and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day.”
John 4:5-7 “5 He comes therefore to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near to the land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.6 Now a fountain of Jacob’s was there; Jesus therefore, being wearied with the way he had come, sat just as he was at the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.7 A woman comes out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus says to her, Give me to drink”
John 4:25-26 “25 The woman says to him, I know that Messiah is coming, who is called Christ; when *he* comes he will tell us all things.26 Jesus says to her, I who speak to thee am [he].”
Mark 10:46-52 “46 And they come to Jericho, and as he was going out from Jericho, and his disciples and a large crowd, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, the blind [man], sat by the wayside begging.47 And having heard that it was Jesus the Nazaraean, he began to cry out and to say, O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me.
48 And many rebuked him, that he might be silent; but he cried so much the more, Son of David, have mercy on me.49 And Jesus, standing still, desired him to be called. And they call the blind [man], saying to him, Be of good courage, rise up, he calls thee.50 And, throwing away his garment, he started up and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answering says to him, What wilt thou that I shall do to thee? And the blind [man] said to him, Rabboni, that I may see.52 And Jesus said to him, Go, thy faith has healed thee. And he saw immediately, and followed him in the way.”
