Still Working On Me | Waiting on a Miracle | Pastor Devin Gough

Sometimes God is doing more than fixing a problem, he’s forming a person! This weekend Pastor Devin Gough continued our WAITING ON A MIRACLE series with a message about Jesus’ healing of a blind man.Mark 8:23-25Jesus took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then, spitting on the man’s eyes, he laid his hands on him and asked, “Can you see anything now?” The man looked around. “Yes,” he said, “I see people, but I can’t see them very clearly. They look like trees walking around.” Then Jesus placed his hands on the man’s eyes again, and his eyes were opened.Sometimes breakthrough is incremental. Sometimes God works in steps. What can we learn from this unique story of healing?1) Jesus will lead you outside before he heals you.Bethsaida had a reputation for spiritual resistance. Before working in you, God may lead you away from environments and associations that have aided your dysfunction.2) Partial progress is still proof that God is working.The blind man was honest. Things were better, but still blurry. In many seasons of our lives we need to be honest that what God has begun is still in process. 3) Jesus doesn’t stop until your vision is clear.When the man’s vision wasn’t completely healed, Jesus didn’t shame him. Instead, he touched him again.Thank God that he isn’t frustrated by our process! He is faithful to finish what he has begun in us!
