He Touched My Eyes — And I Came Back Seeing

John 9:1–12

He was born blind. And Jesus saw him. The disciples saw a theological debate:

“Who sinned, this man or his parents?”
Jesus saw an opportunity for God’s glory.

Then something strange happened. Jesus spit on the ground. He made clay. He touched the man’s eyes. And told him:

“Go, wash in the pool of Siloam.”

No crowds. No shouting. Just mud, obedience, and a miracle.

💡 Devotional Insight:

Jesus never heals the same way twice. This man’s healing was personal. Unpredictable. And a little messy. But his obedience unlocked the miracle. He didn’t question the method. He followed the Word.

That’s how God still moves. Not through formulas — but through faith. Your breakthrough may not look like anyone else’s. But it will be exactly what you need.

“He anointed my eyes… and I came back seeing.”

Sometimes, what feels like a delay or confusion is really God preparing your healing in a way only He can.

📝 Journal Prompts:

  1. Have I expected God to move in the same way He did for someone else?

  2. What is Jesus asking me to obey that I haven’t fully walked out yet?

  3. What healing might be waiting on the other side of my obedience?

🙏 Closing Prayer:

Jesus, thank You for seeing me. Thank You for knowing exactly how to touch my life in a way that draws me closer to You. When the way is unclear, help me to trust and obey. I want to walk by faith — even when the mud covers my eyes — because I believe I’ll come back seeing.

In Jesus name, Amen.
