”Lord, Let Me Recover My Sight” Luke 18:31-43 by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This week we returned to the subject of prayer in Luke 18:31-43. We have seen the prayer of the tenacious widow at the beginning of his chapter who cried for justice. We have seen the humble prayer of the tax collector who cried out “God, have mercy on me, a sinner!”. Now, we see the blind man who is pleading with Jesus for eyes to see. He pleads “Lord, let me recover my sight.”  What we are going to see is that spiritual sight is different than physical sight. 

In this passage, there is a direct contrast between those who could see with their eyes but were blind to the wonder of who Jesus was and why He had come and this blind man who could not see with his eyes but who clearly knew who Jesus was. 

Our sermon this week is called "Lord, Let Me Recover My Sight" and there is no doubt that this is what God wants us to be praying. Ask yourself how different your life, your priorities and your joy would be if you could see Jesus clearly as He really is for us in the gospel. Waterbrooke let’s pray this together this week – Open our eyes to see Jesus!
