SCRIPTURE:"They came to Bethsaida, and some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him. He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit on the man's eyes and put his hands on him, Jesus asked, "Do you see anything?" He looked up and said, "I see people; they look like trees walking around." Once more Jesus put his hands on the man's eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. Jesus sent him home, saying, "Don't go into the village." (Mark 8:22-26, NIV)

OBSERVATION:
I asked myself what did Jesus do after healing the blind man completely?Jesus sent him home.
Jesus told him, "Don't go into the village."

INTERPRETATION:
I asked myself the significance of Jesus sending him home?
Jesus had taken the man by the hand and led him outside the village after some people brought him to Jesus. Now, the blind man is completely healed and can see everything clearly. It would have been only natural for the man to go sightseeing after regaining his sight to experience the things he had missed but Jesus was not only about restoration of his sight but also restoration to his family.

When Jesus sent him home and commanded him not to go into the village, it was because Jesus wanted him restored to his family. Another version specifically uses the word 'family' instead of just 'home'. Jesus also cared so much for the blind man's family and what they were going through because of his blindness. We do not even know what his family was going through but we do know it was a patriarchal society and if the man did not work, the children and the wife suffered too. It is very well possible that the man was begging in the village for money to support him and his family. Some people saw that and decided to help him out by bringing him to Jesus. Now he can go home fully restored. I was so touched while I thought about that.

IMPLICATIONS:
I saw important implications for my own life. I learned how much Jesus cared not only for the blind man's restoration of his health but also wanted to restore him completely to his family. Jesus wanted family to be put first over the people of the village too. Jesus knew what was going on in his family more than the man did and sent him home. I believe Jesus wanted the family to experience restoration in the areas they were in and wanted the man to be an example of what Jesus did in his life and what Jesus can do for his family.

I ask you now dear friend, what does restoration make you do?
Dear friend, restoration in our lives can make us become closer to our family or distance us from our family. Jesus is all about bringing restoration in our lives not just for our sake but for our families sake too so they can see the restoration Christ brings and want it themselves. Jesus cared deeply about a family's restoration to each other and to Himself.

When the blind man was restored, he could have wanted to do so many things after getting back his sight completely but Jesus wanted him to go home and spend with family.

When Jesus restores us whether it is a physical restoration, a emotional restoration, or a spiritual restoration, He wants us to be restored to Him first and than to our family. I strongly believe that. The man could have been a great witness to those around him in the village but Jesus did not want him in the village but at home. Jesus wanted his witnessing to start first at home with his family. We see this principle even in Mark 5 when Jesus healed the demon-possessed man at the tombs.

We need to do the same and when Jesus restores us in areas of our lives, our first gratitude should be to Christ and wanting to always be restored to Him and then we need to go to our family and share what Christ's restoration has done in our lives.

There is a reason that the Word of God says, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you and your entire household will be saved!"

Restoration's effect should start at home with family. We cannot do it on our own but need Jesus' help as we witness to our family. Remember the man could not save himself from being blind but others had to intervene and bring them to Jesus and Jesus worked in the man's life to save him from blindness.

In the same way, we are to bring our families before Jesus to ask Jesus to restore them in whatever they are facing because Jesus alone can do that. But before that we need to be restored. The way to bring our families to Jesus is through prayer.

I believe when Jesus restores a person, He restores them spiritually too. I think that happened to the blind man too. This is very significant because restoration in our lives by Jesus should make us want to let our family experience that restoration.

It starts with witnessing about Jesus by our actions even if it is not by our words. Our family needs to see that there is something different about us and it has nothing to do with just physical or emotional aspects but the heart aspect.

Jesus alone can deal with the restoration of our lives when it comes to the heart.

The heart is wicked and who can know it.

Only God knows the wickedness of our heart and its inclination to do evil and wrong. But thanks be to God that God did not leave us in our wickedness but sent Jesus Christ to bring about change in our lives and transform our lives so we can be restored to Him.

This specifically started when Jesus went to the cross and shed His precious cleansing blood on the cross that His precious blood can restore us to Him when we turn to Him.

Friend, the precious blood of Jesus is the best medication to save us from our sin. It is hard to explain but when Jesus died on the cross and His blood was shed, He took all the sin of humanity upon Himself which also means the wickedness of humanity's heart upon Himself.

By dying on the cross for us and coming back to life to save us, Jesus gave us the opportunity to turn to Him to be restored. In our sins, we cannot save ourselves but only Christ can save us when we turn to Him.

Friend, everyone needs restoration that only Christ can provide. All humanity can only be restored by Christ and no one else. When I realized what Jesus did for me and only His antidote could free me from the bondage of sin, I turned to Jesus for restoration and He has restored me which is so exciting to know.

Jesus can do the same for you. When you come to Jesus it is because Jesus is drawing you to Him by what Jesus already did on the cross. On the cross, Jesus took the sins of humanity absorbing it and let His blood flow, to cover all those who are doomed for destruction such as you and me, when we turned to Him. Now we are covered by the blood of the Lamb to be restored.

It is by His grace we have been saved through faith and not of works that any of us can boast.

It also means anyone can come to Jesus Christ and receive His forgiveness and restoration no matter what kind of life they have been living or lived. No matter how blind they have been physically or spiritually, Jesus is there to become the Light of the world for all who turn to Him.

Jesus says, "I am the Light of the world, He who follows me will not be stumbling through the darkness but living light will flood their path."

Now Christ's cleansing blood washes and wipes away all our sin to bring restoration in our lives to restore us to Father God. That is exciting to know. It started with Jesus and Jesus became the Initiator upon the cross and has given humanity an invitation to come to Him.

May you come to Jesus as you are allowing Him to make restoration a witnessing opportunity in your life.

"Redeemer Emancipates Souls Triumphantly Offering Redemption As Trustworthy Immanuel, Omnipotently Now!" (R.E.S.T.O.R.A.T.I.O.N)/"I ask you now dear friends, what does R.E.S.T.O.R.A.T.I.O.N make you do?"

Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, thank you so much for bringing restoration to the blind man's life. You Oh Lord loved him so much that you restored him when some people brought him to you. After restoring him completely you sent him home and not to the village because you wanted his family to experience your restoration in his life and wanted him to become a witness for them too. Oh Lord, thank you for the restoration you have brought in our lives. Help us to use the restoration you brought for your honor and glory putting you first and family second and everything else third. Thank you Jesus for dying for our sin and coming back to life to save us on the third day. We don't always understand everything but this I am so thankful for that when you died on the cross to save humanity shedding your precious cleansing blood to provide the antidote for the virus known as sin, you became the Initiator of man's Salvation when man accepts the invitation to come to you. I have accepted it Lord because you chose us first and I pray others will come to know you as their Lord and Personal Savior knowing that you have already chosen them by your grace to deliver them. It is not anything they can do to earn your Salvation because it is by your wonderful grace. Thank you so much Jesus! In Your Name I Pray Jesus! Thank you for hearing my prayer and answering me! Amen!

Jesus has been working in my life to transform and change me. Jesus will do that for you too no matter where you are. So, please come to Him as you are and allow Him to work in your life and transform you. Pray this prayer to the Lord and mean it in your heart to be saved.

Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, thank you so much that you came for hardened hearts to soften them and transform them. I know Lord you continue to do that in my life. Thank you Lord I did not choose you first but you chose me when you came into this world to die for those around you and those that would be born so their wickedness can be taken away when they turn to you. You have provided so many ways for people to come to know you as their Lord and Personal Savior. I thank you Lord for that but you will not force yourself into our lives unless we open the door of our heart. You stand at the door and knock and since you are knocking we thank you that you have chosen us. Now Oh Lord help us to choose you always knowing you are the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through you. Thank you for working in my life and giving me an opportunity to come to you. Help me to always remember the price you paid to set me free and give me new life. You paid it with your own blood for me so my heart does not have to stay hardened. Oh Lord Jesus, God of our Salvation please help us so we do not get hardened. We know when we take our mind of you, it will happen. But we thank you too that when we came to you, you saved us for eternity and you who began a good work in us will continue to do that . Thank you that we always have your blood covering over us. When we go our own way and sin we do that because we do not focus on you but on ourselves. Thank you when we turn to you, you forgive us. We give our life to you and ask you to be Lord and Savior of our lives. Thank you Jesus! Please come into my heart and make my heart your home. Live in me Jesus and I will live for you and serve you the rest of the days of my life. Thank you Jesus for being my Lord and Personal Savior. Thank you Jesus you have heard my prayer and answered me. In Your Name I Pray Jesus! Amen!!

Friend, if you have prayed this prayer and meant it in your heart, you are a new creation in Christ and all old things are passed away and everything has become new! You may feel something or may not but don’t base it on feelings but base your new life in Christ on the promises of our Savior who will never leave you nor forsake you! Amen!
