I love the way Jesus Christ teaches while performing a miracle. In many of the miracles Jesus Christ performs, he is surrounded by Pharisees or other parties who doubt His divinity. He uses these moments to teach important principles. I especially love how He often uses their words or actions to display those principles too.
In Mark 10: 51-52 it reads:
In Mark 10: 51-52 it reads:
And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
I love how Jesus first asked the man what he wanted. In the bible dictionary under Prayer it actually says that God has many blessings in store for us, but he waits for us to ask for them! So hear Jesus is asking the man to state what he wants and then Jesus will give it to him.
It's also important to note that he says that the man's faith is what made him whole. Christ cannot perform the miracles he performs without our faith to empower them! So let us have faith and ASK for the blessings we need/want!
