Luke 18:35-43

35As He was approaching Jericho [on His way to Jerusalem], it happened that a blind man was sitting beside the road begging.

36Now when he heard a crowd going by, he began to ask what this was [about].

37They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.”

38So he shouted out, saying, “Jesus, Son of David (Messiah), have mercy on me!”

39Those who were leading the way were sternly telling him to keep quiet; but he screamed all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”

40Then Jesus stopped and ordered that the blind man be led to Him; and when he came near, Jesus asked him,

41“What do you want Me to do for you?” He said, “Lord, let me regain my sight!”

42Jesus said to him, “Regain your sight; your [personal trust and confident] faith [in Me] has made you well.”

43Immediately he regained his sight and began following Jesus, glorifying and praising and honoring God. And all the people, when they saw it, praised God.
