SIGHT

Text: Mark  10:51
  
So Jesus answered and said to him, "What do you want Me to do for you?" The blind man said to Him, "Rabboni, that I may receive my sight."

Sight simply means the ability to see. We shall be looking at this topic from physical and spiritual angle. 

My first desire and prayer is that the Lord will give sight to as many of his children that are at the verge of loosing their sights or that have lost their sights in Jesus name.Amen!

One who has lost his or her sight is one who will not be able to do many things. Hence, many blind people have resolved to begging. This was the case of Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus in our Bible reading. 

He always sit by the highway side begging. In those days, there has not been so much technological advancements as we have it today, hence, anyone who is blind often resolved to begging.

So, we can say that blindness reduces productivity and leads to reliance on another. Physically, this may not be entirely true about all blind people, but it is very true about many blind people.

In the same way, if one is blind spiritually, such  will not be productive as such, he will always be overly reliant on others to give him assistance. Such person is also prone to stumbling even in the day time. 

As a result of technology, many people who are blind have been able to overcome many of the challenges that come with such predicament. It is however unfortunate that there is no spiritual technology to aid those that are blind spiritually. Such ones can only be helped through the healing power of Jesus Christ. 

One who is blind spiritually can only be healed of blindness and there is no tool to help such one except healing in the name of Jesus.

 *Spiritual blindness is that which robs one of spiritual sight and by extension spiritual blessings.* 

 *Give a spiritually blind person like Esau, bread and stew of lentils,and he will sell his birthright.* (Gen 25:29-34).

 *Spiritual blindness is very dangerous because it robs Christians of their inheritance.* 

The first assignment God gave to Paul was to open the eyes of the gentiles. (Acts 26:18).

As a believer, you need to constantly engage  Ephesians 1: 17&18 prayer for sight and illumination:

 _"...that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints..."_ 

 *BIBLE READING* 

Mark 10:46-52.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

1. Father open my eyes to see as I ought to see in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
