'YEA LORD'
By
Submitted By Dr. James Schirtzinger, D.D.

MATTHEW 9:27-31 27) And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him crying saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.

28) And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? they said unto him, Yea Lord.

29) then He touched their eyes, saying, according to your faith be it unto you.

30) and their eyes were opened: and Jesus staightly charged them, saying, see that no man know it 31) But they, when they were departed spread abroad his fame in all that country.'( KJV) We see here two blind men who believed in Jesus--went to Jesus and inquired of him their need. Jesus did not heal them at their first request.

So they followed him until he entered the house--and again they requested that he would fulfill their need. They were blind and wanted to see.

Then Jesus questioned their faith by saying, believe ye that I am able to do this? They admitted to him by saying, yea Lord.

It was then when they expressed their true faith in Jesus that He touched their eyes and told them according to your faith be it done to you.

This is how we today can get our prayers answered.

We must go to Jesus with our request.

We must believe that Jesus could answer our request .But our prayer will only be answered according to our faith.

We cannot accomplish anything in our prayers or our life without trusting, having faith in God, believing in Him.

MARK 11:24 says ' Therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.'(KJV) When you pray do you believe your prayer will be answered? Is your faith strong enough to say,Yea Lord?
