Luke 18:35-43 "Blind"
Sunday, 22 February, 2026
In this teaching from Luke 18, Pastor Landon walks through Jesus’ prediction of His suffering and the healing of blind Bartimaeus near Jericho. Though the disciples had walked closely with Jesus, they still struggled to understand His clear words about the cross. Their spiritual blindness reminds us that proximity to Jesus does not automatically mean clarity. Meanwhile, a blind beggar sees what others miss — that Jesus is the Son of David, the promised Messiah. When Bartimaeus cries out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me,” the crowd tries to silence him. But faith persists. Jesus stops. He listens. He restores the man’s sight. This teaching explores: • Spiritual blindness from Genesis to the Gospels • How Satan blinds minds from seeing the gospel (2 Corinthians 4) • Blind spots in every season of life • Identity confusion in today’s culture • Misplaced hope in politics, relationships, and self • The humility required to cry out for mercy • Why Jesus’ healings point toward the coming resurrection The deepest blindness is not cultural or political — it is failing to see Christ clearly. Like Bartimaeus, we are invited to pray: “Lord, have mercy on me.” “Lord, let me receive my sight.” When Jesus gives sight, the response is simple: he followed Him. May Christ Himself be our peace.
