The blind men approached JESUS.
They wanted to SEE.
But did they really,
as JESUS questioned them,
“Do you believe [with a deep, abiding trust] that I am able to do this?” *
Did you catch that?
JESUS asking them if they BELIEVED.
But to BELIEVE what?
If JESUS was ABLE to heal them.
So what was this really about.
Was it about their being HEALED or was
it about their FAITH in who JESUS is?
Hmm.
To BE ABLE~
"to be or become sufficient to meet a need or task" (logos)
Hmm.
Was JESUS sufficient to meet their NEED for HEALING?
Oh yes.
So when did their HEALING begin?
The moment they BELIEVED that JESUS was ABLE!
HEALING FAITH~
They said to Him, "Yes, LORD”
*(Matthew 9:27-28).
Did JESUS restore their SIGHT?
Oh yes.
But what was their REAL HEALING?
Their FAITH.
FAITH to BELIVE that JESUS IS ABLE.
For HEALING begins the moment
you BELIEVE JESUS,
even if HE does not perform the
MIRACLE
that you may be praying.
Because the MIRACLE is FAITH!
Oh the sweet spot of SURRENDER
when FAITH becomes your SIGHT~
Do you want HEALING FAITH?
Just say,
"YES, LORD"
and experience the power of
HEALING FAITH~
*(add your name on the following blanks)
"It’s impossible to please GOD apart from faith. And why?
Because I , __________________,
approach GOD and
I, ______________, BELIEVE
both that HE exists and that HE cares enough to respond to me,
because I, _________________, seek HIM"
(Hebrews 11:6)
HEALING FAITH~
"Now to HIM who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that
I, ______________,
ask or think, according to the power that is at work within me"
(Ephesians 3:20)
HEALING FAITH~
"Therefore, HE IS ABLE
is able also to save forever
(completely, perfectly, for eternity)
me, _________________, who comes to GOD through HIM,
since HE always lives to intercede and intervene on my behalf [with GOD]"
(Hebrews 7:25).
Do you have a BLIND spot?
Let your FAITH become you SIGHT~
"For we walk by faith, not by sight [living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in GOD'S promises]"
(2 Corinthians 5:7).
And it begins by answering
the question JESUS asks,
"Do you believe that I am able to do this?"
Oh
YES JESUS YES JESUS,
"I, _________________, BELIEVE YOU"
(listen to the song I BELIEVE YOU below)
