Luke 18:35, 37\u201343 (KJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One day, Jesus was passing by Jericho\u2014not stopping, not waiting\u2014just passing by. On the roadside sat a blind man whose life had been reduced to begging. He could not see Jesus, but he could hear that Jesus of Nazareth was near. That moment was his opportunity, and he refused to let it pass in silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are some key lessons to learn<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Be Spiritually Sensitivity \u2013<\/strong> The blind man recognized the sound of divine opportunity. Though physically blind, he was spiritually alert. When others merely announced, \u201cJesus of Nazareth passeth by,\u201d he discerned, \u201cThe Son of David is here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have Bold Faith \u2013<\/strong> He cried out for mercy despite opposition. The crowd tried to silence him, but resistance only amplified his cry. True faith grows louder when challenged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a Personal Desire<\/strong> \u2013 When Jesus asked, \u201cWhat wilt thou that I shall do unto thee?\u201d the man was clear and specific: \u201cLord, that I may receive my sight.\u201d Faith knows what it wants from God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Expect a Transformational Encounter \u2013<\/strong> One word from Jesus changed everything. The blind beggar became a seeing follower, and his healing turned into a public testimony that glorified God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not ignore moments when Jesus is passing by your situation\u2014through His Word, prayer, or a prompting in your spirit. Cry out in faith, refuse to be silenced by doubt or discouragement, and be specific about what you are believing God for. When He responds, follow Him wholeheartedly and let your testimony give glory to God. Today, lift your voice\u2014mercy is within reach.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Luke 18:35, 37\u201343 (KJV) One day, Jesus was passing by Jericho\u2014not stopping, not waiting\u2014just passing by.
