Luke: The Blind Receive Sight - Jon Furman
Luke 7:22b (NLT)
“…Go back to John and tell him what you have seen and heard—the blind see, the lame walk, those with leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, and the Good News is being preached to the poor.”
Luke 18:35-37
As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.”

“Those who led the way rebuked him…”
Luke 18:40-41a
Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When he came near, Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?”
Luke 18:41b-43
“Lord, I want to see,” he replied. Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has healed you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, praising God. When all the people saw it, they also praised God.
Focus your faith on Him.
Focus your faith on Him daily.
It’s not too late, you’re never too far.
