46And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
47And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
48And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
49And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
50And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
You know, I--I like to do that, sit and think about things that's gone by, pleasant things, of victories I've seen the Lord win, and--and the times.
You know, blindness is a horrible thing. When I see a man, blind, my heart goes out for him. But, yet, I know of a blindness that's worse, spiritual blindness; how God made man to--to visualize Him, and they can't do it.
One call, tonight, will bring Him on the scene, just the same as it did then. How He remains the same!
Do you know, that same Lamb is provided tonight for your eyes, too? That same Lamb is here tonight. God provided. He has no other, never will have another. That's God's provided Lamb.
Now as you bow your heads and your heart, I want you to cry out to Him, "Jesus!" Don't call Him Son of David, because He is not Son of David to you. He is Lord. "Jesus, Lord, have mercy on me. Open my blinded eyes. I have heard this minister that's with us tonight, say that You promised to manifest Yourself to the seed of Abraham, in the last days, the way You did to Abraham and his seed of that day. You promised it, that You are the Word.
How many in here would like for God's provided Lamb to open your eyes, so you can see Him here now, present? Would you raise your hand, say, "God, open my blinded eyes. Let me have my veil took off of my heart, Lord, that I might understand."
Jesus Christ is in our midst, the same One that walked through Jericho, that knowed Zacchaeus by name, that knowed Bartimaeus. The same Lord Jesus, in the form of the Holy Spirit, is here, tonight, doing the same things He done, infallibly proving that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Don't let creeds, and the theologies, and cold spells, choke you out. You're in the Presence of Jesus Christ, Who is made manifest among you. Amen. I believe it with all my heart. Amen.
You love one another, you love Him.
Wouldn't it be a wonderful time for Him to come right now, look around and see everybody being changed, going away? He will sometime.
