Description

In Mark 8:22-26, we find a remarkable account of Jesus healing a blind man in Bethsaida. This story stands out for its unique process—a gradual healing that offers profound lessons about faith, spiritual clarity, and the transformative power of Jesus. By examining this scripture, we will explore how Jesus’ compassionate and deliberate actions reveal truths about God’s work in our lives.


Scripture(s) in this Episode:


Mark 8: 22-26 (NASB)


And they came to Bethsaida. And some people brought a man who was blind to [Jesus], and begged Him to touch him. Taking the man who was blind by the hand, He brought him out of the village; and after spitting in his eyes and laying His hands on him, He asked him, “Do you see anything?” And he looked up and said, “I see people, for I see them like trees, walking around.” Then again He laid His hands on his eyes; and he looked intently and was restored, and began to see everything clearly. And He sent him to his home, saying, “Do not even enter the village.”


Key Takeaways:



  • Faith is often communal, as others’ prayers and actions can bring us closer to Jesus

  • God’s work in our lives is personal and often takes us out of our comfort zones

  • Spiritual clarity and maturity may come in stages, requiring us to trust God’s timing and methods

  • Once healed or restored, we are called to walk in obedience and avoid returning to patterns or environments that could hinder our growth
