It came to pass, that as He was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging; and hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant. They told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passes by. And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.   They which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace, but he cried so much the more, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. 

Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him; and when he was come near, He asked him, saying, what wilt thou that I shall do unto thee?

He said, LORD, that I may receive my sight.

Jesus said unto him, receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee; And immediately he received his sight, and followed Him, glorifying GOD! All the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto GOD! Luke 18:35-43 (KJV)

Questions: 

• What is going on regarding the multitude of people, why were they trying to block a miraculous blessing?
• Who is passing through the neighborhood?
• Why and for what purpose is a certain person continuously shouting & who is he?
• How does the person sitting by the way side address Yahshua?
• What does Yahshua ask the man sitting by the way side, and how does he respond to the question?
• Does the man sitting by the way side receive an answer and how soon?
• What caused the miraculous blessing?

Notice that Yahshua stated:  “thy faith hath made thee whole”.  Within the Holy Scriptures, it is stated, “without faith it is impossible to please GOD” Hebrews 11:6 (KJV) 

Question: 

Why is faith so important?

 Faith pleases YHVH

Note: Faith is  unshakeable Trust in the One True and Living God.  When odds are stacked against us, we as believers know beyond a shadow of a doubt that our Holy, Righteous, Just and True Father, will provide.  When we humble ourselves and go to His Throne of Grace with thanksgiving, and present our requests to Him, by faith, we know our prayers will be answered. 

There are pre-requisites: 

• Humility
• Repent for all unrighteousness

Offer sacrifices of thanksgiving, and then let our requests be made known unto Him, and we do all this in the Name of His Holy Son, Yahshua ha Mashiach.

Pre-Requisites:

• Have faith in GOD
• Humility
• Repentance
• Thanksgiving

Do not lean to your understanding, but acknowledge YHVH our GOD

• Always pray
• Prayerfully, intercede for others

Keep watch over your soul (see Galatians chapter 5;21-23; Matthew 15:17-20)
