One
of the anointing that we have through Christ Jesus is the anointing to restore
sight to the blind, to help those that cannot see to clearly be able to see. There
are two types of blindness; physical and spiritual blindness. Of this two,
spiritual blindness is more severe as it would lead to eternal damnation. We
therefore will focus our attention on it, knowing however, that we have been
empowered and anointed to heal the physical loss of sight as Jesus did on
several occasions as well.
To
be spiritually blind is to be disconnected from your source. Reconnection became
very difficult before the coming of Christ Jesus, but Christ opens the doors of
grace unto us that we may restore sights to the spiritually blind.
“I
will bring distress upon men, and they shall walk like blind men, because they
have sinned against the Lord…” Zephaniah 1:17
Sin
brings about separation from God and ultimately, Spiritual blindness. This is one
of the ills we Christians are called and anointed to correct in the name of
Jesus. Have you wondered why what is
very plain to you as day, are so very difficult for the world to understand? You
believe that Jesus is the Son of God; you believe that one can be healed in His
name; you believe that demons tremble at the mention of His name; you believe that
a mountain would move by faith, you lay your hands on the sick by faith and
they are healed, you command witchcraft to be destroyed and they are destroyed,
you could communicated with a birth and a tree and have a conversation with
your heavenly Father. But the spiritually blinded thinks you are a fool and
should probably get something reasonable to do. Yet, we are called to help them
see.
“Isaiah
29:18 in that the day…the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out
of darkness”
That
day is today. The acceptable year of the Lord, when the blind receives sight by
the power in the name of Jesus through you, and the sinner abandons his sinful
ways and reconnects to His maker. When we allow the world to lead, we are more
or less allowing the blind to lead the blind and will both fall into the ditch-Matthew
15:14. We therefore must intensify our reach to the unsaved and tell them about
the saving grace of Jesus and power that He has given those that believed on
His name.
“Job
29:15 I was eyes to the blind and I was feet to the lame”
Like
Job, we must become the eyes through which those that are blind could see. As salts
of the earth, the blind must see the goodness and kindness of God through us,
and the signs that would make them believe that indeed we serve the living God.
We must therefore marry the word with action tailored toward helping the blind
to see and save them from eternal death.
