Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year Oneनमुना

But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing (2 Corinthians 4:3).

Do you believe that Jesus can open the eyes of the spiritually blind?

God requires believers to have faith that He is able to work miracles, whether that is through Ezekiel, who prophesied to dead bones to come alive (Ezekiel 37), or through us, who witness to the spiritually blind to be saved. Our Lord asks the blind men seeking to have sight a fascinating question in Matthew 9: “And Jesus said to them. ‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?’” (Matthew 9:28). They respond in the affirmative and our Lord says, “According to your faith let it be to you” (Matthew 9:29). We must believe in Jesus’ person (who He is) and His work (what He does) in order to please Him. The writer of Hebrews states it this way, “for he who comes to God must believe that He is” (Hebrews 11:6).

Employment Point: Believe that Jesus can open the eyes of the blind.
