Spiritually Blind
The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
2 Corinthians 4:4
Not everyone will be able to see the light of Jesus. The enemy who comes to kill, steal, and destroy, also has put a veil over the eyes of many so they cannot see Jesus.
The god of this age can be many things, Satan, demons, evil spirits, and the tools they use to distract us. I believe it is most likely the internet and social media. I look for what easily takes our eyes off Jesus. What do we seem to worship? We have set information up as a god, and it uses all the platforms to try to blind us.
Many people who do not believe in Jesus will be hard to sway because their eyes have not seen His light or goodness. Often, we look at unbelievers in disgust thinking they have just rejected the truth of Jesus. However, we neglect to recognize the blindness upon them from the enemy.
This teaches us how to pray. We pray for the veil to be lifted, for sight to be restored, and for the light of Jesus Christ to pe*****te the darkness that has been covering them. We have spiritual weapons to use when fighting against the enemy. God’s Word and prayer are two of the strongest.
The Word is clear that the enemy is blinding unbelievers from seeing Jesus. So our next move is to pray against it. Pray for healing of the unbelievers. Pray for sight, spiritual sight, so that blindness will be lifted!
Father God, let Your light burn through the darkness that the enemy has placed upon Your people. Set them free from spiritual blindness. Come for the rescue, Father. Open eyes to see, ears to hear, and hearts to receive Your Son. In Jesus Name!
