Jesus is in hot pursuit of the spiritually blind. He may use a vision or he may use the kindness of a friend or the message of a sermon or the splendor of creation. But believe this, he came to bring sight to the blind. maxlucado.com/listen/in-hot-…
This story of the blind man in John 9 answers the question, “What does a person need to know to become a follower of Christ?” The man received sight simply because he trusted and obeyed the one who was sent to open eyes that are blind. maxlucado.com/listen/simply-…
Sometimes God uses the less than pleasant to initiate a miracle—layoffs, let downs, bouts of loneliness. Do not assume that Jesus is absent or oblivious to your struggle. Just the opposite. He is using it to reveal himself to you. maxlucado.com/listen/miracle…
You and I aren’t invisible. We aren’t overlooked. Jesus spots us on the side of the road and he makes the first move. maxlucado.com/listen/jesus-s…
From Heaven’s viewpoint, our earth is populated by sightless people. They do not see the meaning of life or the love of God. How else do we explain the confusion and chaos? maxlucado.com/listen/those-w…
“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I’m found. I was blind, but now I see.” maxlucado.com/listen/from-bl…
The next time you pray, “Is anyone coming to help me?” listen for the response of Jesus. “I AM with you in this storm.” maxlucado.com/listen/never-l…
“So they gladly took Him aboard. And at once the boat reached the shore that they were making for” (John 6:21). The moment the disciples invited Christ into their boat was the moment they reached their destination. maxlucado.com/listen/upward-…
Your greatest need is God’s presence. Yes, you want this storm to pass. Yes, you want the winds to still. But yes, yes, yes, you want to know and need to know and must know that the great I AM is near. maxlucado.com/listen/hear-go…
Storms overtake us, and it sometimes seems they will never end. But then the unimaginable happens. “They saw Jesus walking on the water” (John 6:19). That’s all we need to know. Before Jesus stills the storms, he comes to us in the midst of our storms. maxlucado.com/listen/jesus-i…
The next time you feel overwhelmed, remind yourself of the one who is standing next to you. Give God what you have, offer thanks, and watch him go to work. maxlucado.com/listen/watch-g…
What do you have? All you have is a wimpy prayer, give it. All you have is a meager skill, use it. All you have is the strength for one step, take it. God used three nails and a crude cross to redeem humanity. maxlucado.com/listen/give-ch…
What we cannot do, Christ does. The problems we face are opportunities for Christ to prove his point. maxlucado.com/listen/christ-…
God is the God of forward motion. The God of tomorrow. Ask him this question: “What can I do today that will take me in the direction of a better tomorrow?” maxlucado.com/listen/god-of-…
“’I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’” [Jeremiah 29:11 NIV] maxlucado.com/listen/our-job…
Life feels stuck when life makes no progress. When you battle the same discouragement you faced a decade ago or struggle with the same fears you faced a year ago. Friend, Jesus sees you. He has a new version of you waiting to happen. maxlucado.com/listen/get-uns…
“When Jesus saw him and knew he had been ill for a long time, he asked him, ‘Would you like to get well?’” (John 5:6). What an odd question to ask a sick person. Why would Jesus pose such a question? maxlucado.com/listen/questio…
“Wherever Jesus went, he healed people of every sort of illness. And what pity he felt for the crowds that came because their problems were so great and they didn’t know what to do or where to go for help” (Matt 9:35-36). maxlucado.com/listen/waiting…
Set your compass on the pole star of God’s promise. Place one weary foot in front of the other. Jesus has spoken. Let his word do what it was intended to do: lead you home. maxlucado.com/listen/at-his-…
“God began doing a good work in you, and I’m sure he will continue it until it is finished when Jesus Christ comes again.” [Philippians 1:6 NCV] maxlucado.com/listen/studio-…
