Good morning,
Next week I will be having cataract surgery.
This week we look at what the Bible says about our eyes.
Topics to be discussed are eyes in general, eyes are good, eyes are evil, eyes healed by Jesus.
Eyes healed by Jesus
“And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him. 23And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. 24And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. 25After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.” (Mark 8:22-25)
“When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, 7And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.” (John 9:6-7)
Conclusion
God made our eyes
Eyes may be used to bless or curse God
God heals the eyes of men
The challenge for each of us is be very careful what we look at. Make sure our eyes look at Godly things and avoid the wicked things.
Eyes focused on Jesus.
