Luke 18:41

Jesus
Sickness and healingPrayer

39 Those who led the way admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”

40 Jesus stopped and directed that the man be brought to Him. When he had been brought near, Jesus asked him,

“What do you want Me to do for you?” “Lord,” he said, “let me see again.”

42 “Receive your sight!” Jesus replied. “Your faith has healed you.”

43 Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, glorifying God. And all the people who saw this gave praise to God.
