ONE THING I DO KNOW….

John 9:25 – He then answered, “Whether He is a sinner, I do not know; one thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.”

This man’s miracle is irrefutable. The Pharisees had taken an unsupportable position, that it was impossible for Jesus, a sabbath breaker, to be able to heal the sick especially heal a man who had been blind all of his life. Why do I say their position was unsupportable? Because the miracle was standing right in front of Him. This man who had been born blind had been totally healed. All of the religious arguments leave the room when the Lord begins to pour out His signs and wonders. How do you answer someone who says I was blind but now I see? For that matter how do you argue with someone who says I was an alcoholic and now I am not or I was a sexual deviant and Jesus saved me and now I’m not. The list is endless, I was broke and now I am blessed. I was having horrible back problems and now I don’t. My family was a mess but the Lord restored my family. Here is how the HKNTC describes the power of a miracle.

“As the story progresses it becomes increasingly clear that this man is not an ordinary individual. He is not easily shaken. Evidently the vaunted knowledge of these eminent judges has failed to impress him. He answered, Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, I now see. Boldly he places both his “I do not know” and his “I do know” over against their “we know.” We say “over against,” for instead of assenting to the proposition “This man is a sinner,” he openly declares that he, the one formerly blind, is not aware of this; but that he is very definitely aware of the fact that, though blind, he is now fully able to see! Between the lines of his terse saying one can surely read this much: “Over against your mere say-so I place this one great fact of experience: though I was blind, I now see. Facts are more stubborn than unsupportable opinions.”

So what is your story? What is your story of redemption? God intervening in your world, is the reason you were born. His intervention brings healing and peace into your life, to all that hear your story it brings glory to God.
