Matthew 9:27-31 (HCSB)
“As JESUS went on from there, “TWO BLIND MEN” followed HIM, shouting, “Have mercy on us, Son of David! ” When HE entered the house, the blind men approached HIM, and JESUS said to them, “Do you believe that I can do this? ” “Yes, LORD,” they answered HIM. Then HE touched their eyes, saying, “LET IT BE DONE FOR YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH!” AND THEIR EYES WERE OPENED. Then JESUS warned them sternly, “Be sure that no one finds out! ” But they went out and spread the news about HIM throughout that whole area.”
It is really EYE-OPENING to understand how GOD IN THE FLESH worked during HIS BRIEF three year earthly ministry? JESUS HIMSELF SPOKE to the TWO blind men who “FOLLOWED HIM” without being made whole and begged “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” HIS response was “Do you believe that I can do this?” “Yes, LORD”, to which HIS response was to say, “LET IT BE DONE FOR YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH! ” AND THEIR EYES WERE OPENED.”
Scripture doesn’t indicate that two men were flawless in their walk before or after their healing, a walk where especially beforehand they couldn’t see where they were going, but they were able to see after their EYES were OPENED by THE ONLY ONE WHO had the ability to HEAL them! JESUS “warned them sternly” to “Be sure that no one finds out!”, but the news couldn’t be kept quiet by humans, as they had experienced DIVINITY IN ACTION!
“LET IT BE DONE FOR YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH!” were words that were definitely not misunderstood by the “TWO BLIND MEN” in the above Scriptures. Romans 10:17 (KJV) says “So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of GOD.” “TWO BLIND MEN” were NO LONGER “TWO BLIND MEN”, as JESUS made them whole!!!
