HOW DO YOU SEE MATTHEW 20:29-33

In this passage we see how both writers single out the event that took place, it might be probably the same. The blind men called JESUS ''Son of David'' because the Jews know that the Messiah would be a descendant of David (Isaiah 9:6,7;11:1; Jeremiah 23:5,6). These blind beggars could see that Jesus was the long-awaited Messiah, while the religious leaders who witnessed Jesus miracles were blind to His identity, many times we do think that when we are born into a Christian home or we have been in the Church for some many years makes us more spiritual, but unfortunately that is not the case. They refuse to open their eyes to the truth. Seeing with your eyes does not guarantee seeing with your heart. Although Jesus was concern about the coming event in Jerusalem, He took time and demonstrated what He had just told them, we must also concern about Heaven but then so long as we continue to wait for Him we must do whatever He did  In (v.20:28). He told the disciple that. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many. That is why He stopped to take care of the blind. What are you demonstrating to show you are a disciple of the Messiah.

Prayer for the Day: Lord Jesus help me this day to demonstrate whatever I am learning from you, so that I can be a god follower.
