Sight for the Blind

Jesus said in Mark 14:7 that “the poor you will have with you always.”  There was a time 

in my life when I thought that scripture referred only to financial poverty.  Well, the 

longer that I am saved and serve God and His people, I know that scripture refers to a 

whole lot more than money.  That could mean any area of your life in which you just 

don’t get it. 

I believe that there are things that some of us go through that are not the fault of the 

enemy but clearly a result of our bad decisions.  Now there are those who make a bad 

decision and learn from it.  But then, there are those of us who keep going back making 

the same mistakes over and over until the damage is irreversible.  These kinds of people 

need sight. 

As a pastor’s wife, I spend a lot of time counseling, and nothing makes me sadder than a 

person who just can’t see the truth.  My wonderful husband said something a long time 

ago, and it has stuck with me ever since I heard it.  He said, “The truth rings.”  What he 

meant by that is, you can always tell whether something or someone is true; it will bear 

witness with your Spirit.  You can’t hide from what is really true! 

My prayer for the members of our church is that you begin to see what God sees.  Our 

Father knows the past and sees the future.  So when you see what He sees, you won’t be 

blinded by the enemy.  Nor will you continue to make mistakes contrary to what you 

know is true.  The Lord wants us to walk in faith and victory.  He holds in his hands sight 

for the blind.  You must begin to ask God to open your spiritual eyes so that you can see 

what He sees.  This, my brothers and sisters will give you victory beyond your 

imagination.
