BLURRY IS STILL A BLESSING – WEEK 1

FULL SERMON – 42 MINUTES

ICE BREAKER:

Share how you started coming to Freedom Church and why you decided to participate in Life Groups. What are you hoping for in this group?

SCRIPTURE:

Mark 8:22-26 NIV

Jesus Heals a Blind Man at Bethsaida

²²They came to Bethsaida, and some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him. ²³He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit on the man’s eyes and put his hands on him, Jesus asked, “Do you see anything?”

²⁴He looked up and said, “I see people; they look like trees walking around.”

²⁵Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. ²⁶Jesus sent him home, saying, “Don’t even go into the village.”

KEEP IT UNCOMPLICATED:

Observation Questions

What did Jesus do first when He met the blind man? Why might he have done that?
Psalm 119:105 NIV says “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” What can we learn from this?

Understanding Questions

Can you think of a time in your life when God gave you a “blurry” answer before the full picture became clear?
Pastor Justice taught us that God doesn’t always show us the big picture, but enough to take a next step. What can we learn from this about taking a step in faith?

Application Questions

Where in your life right now are you feeling like things are still “blurry”?
What next step might God be asking you to take in faith?

Next Steps

Spend time praying together that God would illuminate for each person their next step in faith. Lift up specific needs and encourage one another to ask God for a miracle in our lives.
