Christ The Healer- Healing of the Two Blind Men

Jan 26, 2026    Don Allen

This powerful exploration of healing through Scripture takes us into the story of two blind men from Matthew 9 who refused to give up until they encountered Jesus. What makes this account so compelling is the question Jesus asks them: 'Do you believe that I am able to do this?' This isn't just a casual inquiry—it's the foundation upon which every miracle rests. We discover that these men didn't ask for healing directly; instead, they cried out for mercy. This reveals something profound about the nature of divine healing: miracles are a manifestation of God's mercy. When we struggle with feelings of unworthiness—whether from past mistakes, addictions, or poor choices—we need to understand that mercy isn't given when we've done everything right. Mercy is precisely for those moments when we've blown it completely. The beauty of this story lies in Jesus' response: 'According to your faith, let it be done unto you.' Our faith becomes the determining factor, not our perfection or our past. This challenges us to examine what we truly believe about God's ability and willingness to intervene in our impossible situations today, whether physical illness, chronic pain, or bondage to destructive habits.
