John 9:
Blind from birth, this man would most likely go to the same spot daily and earn his living as a beggar.
One day he was blind, the next day he was without his stick and beggar’s basket, and probably marveling at the beauty of God’s house.
Some believed it was him, others could not believe the miracle of sight could happen.
Two questions emerge: Was this really the blind beggar that could now see?
Who caused him to see?
If you were this man, would you profess that you were him or deny it?
When we are saved and enlightened by the grace of God, we should own the fact that it was through God that the blessing came forth.
1 Timothy
We need not be ashamed when Jesus intervenes in our lives, but we should rejoice, be thankful and proclaim the good news.
There was no fanfare.
There was no performance on a stage.
It is good to observe the way God works.
Why should we respond when we are asked, “How have your spiritual eyes been opened?”
The man gives a full account.
Let’s be careful not to discount what Jesus has done in our lives.
Why should we communicate what Jesus has done for us?
We when we communicate the truth of how Jesus has impacted us, it brings glory to God and it gives instruction and encouragement to others.
Psalm
“God’s favors are lost upon us when they are lost with us, and go no further.”
-Matthew Henry
The healed beggar did not know the identity of Jesus.
He had not see Him before, only heard His voice.
At this point, the man was healed but not saved.
The light had dawned but it would grow brighter when he saw Jesus face to face and worshiped Him.
Incidentally, this is one of at least 12 times in John’s Gospel that Jesus is called a man.
John emphasizes that Jesus is God but beautifully shows us that Jesus was also a true man.
The Incarnation was not an illusion.
1 John 1:1-
We should be reminded that what Jesus did was the fulfillment of prophecy.
This blind beggar who had his sight restored will be able to see things later on in this chapter that we would all do well to see! His eyes both physically and spiritually were opened.
