Subject: Let's Tell Jesus!
Word: John 9:18-25
[18] The Jews did not believe that he was blind and saw him, but called his parents and asked them,
[19] Is this your son, who you say was born blind?
[20] His parents answered and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind.
[21] But we do not know what it is now, or who opened his eyes. Ask him, and he will speak of himself, for he is grown up.
[22] Their parents said these things, because they were afraid of the Jews, because anyone who confessed that Jesus was the Christ had resolved to go out of the church.
[23] So his parents said, "Ask him now that he is a man of age."
[24] Then they called the blind man a second time, and said, Glory be to God, for we know that this man is a sinner.
[25] He answered, I do not know whether he is a sinner, but one thing I do know is that I was blind and now see.

John 9 consists of the account of healing a man who was blind. The text shows us the power of the Lord to make the impossible possible. How did you fix it! How were you able to open your eyes and see the world of Gwangmyeong? As we share the Word through the text, I earnestly pray for grace to all of us.
▶First, Jesus met the man.
Verse 1 says, “As Jesus was going on the way, he saw a man blind from birth.” In the Bible, there are countless stories of people who met God. And they have one thing in common. It is not that man sought or met God, but that God first came and met him. I pray that the Lord will meet me today, and if I meet the Lord, I pray that death will change into life, darkness into light, pain into joy, loss into success, illness into health, and tears into praise. The Bible records that the Lord is standing outside the door to meet me today. If you open the door, you will find me, but if you don't open the door, you have no choice but to stay outside and leave. Opportunities aren't that many. There are not many opportunities to meet the Lord. I hope you all open the door of your heart and receive Jesus.
▶I went to the second place where you were sent.
Verse 7 says, “He said to him, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ (Siloam means sent). So he went and washed, and came with bright eyes.” It must be very difficult for a blind man to go to Siloam. Still, we need to think about why the Jesus of love told us to go to Siloam. This was to see the person's obedience, patience, and patience. When the blind man in the text did what Jesus told him to do, he saw the light and experienced a miracle. It is worth paying attention to the fact that he went to Siloam instead of doing what he wanted. When we do what God tells us to do, we also have God's power, God's grace, and victory. You have to do it in the way you set it for. Those who believe in Jesus should not listen to anyone. You just need to listen to the words of Jesus. I pray that you will experience the grace of the Lord when you obey the word of God, the color of your faith will change, and believe that you will gain victory in life.
▶The third time, they testified of Jesus.
The blind man opened his eyes and returned to the town to testify of Jesus. I testified that it was the truth. He testified the truth even before the Pharisees. Look at verse 30, "The man answered and said, "It is strange, this man has opened my eyes, and you do not know where he came from." are being recorded. Everyone, I hope that you will be able to proudly testify that you are a child of God. We want you to be witnesses of Jesus.
