THE EYES OF A SERVANT

The Eyes of a Servant

Isaiah 6:9 talks about a people

who ‘keep on looking’, but do not understand, that ‘render their hearts insensitive’, their ears are dull are their eyes are dim.


Is 42:18 – 2018 Hear, you deaf! And look, you blind,

that you may see. 19 Who is blind but My servant,Or so deaf as My messenger whom I send?Who is so blind as he that is at peace with

Me,Or so blind as the servant of the LORD?


Is 42:18 – 20

20 You have seen many things, but you do not observe them;

Your ears are open, but none hears.


Is 42:16

"And I will lead the blind by a way they do not know, In paths they do not know I will guide them. I will make darkness into light before them

And rugged places into plains. These are the things I will do, And I will not leave them undone."


Supernatural eyes are

Jesus eyes

Servant Eyes are:

EYES OF COMPASSION

The Eyes of a Servant -1

Luke 19:37-41

37 And as He was now approaching, near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles which they had seen,


Luke 19:37-41 saying,"Blessed is the King who comes in the

name of the Lord; Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"


Luke 19:37-41

39 And some of the Pharisees in the multitude said to Him, "Teacher, rebuke Your disciples."

40 And He answered and said, "I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry out!"


Luke 19:37-41

And when He approached, He saw the city and wept over it.


Jesus knew what it was to weep

He saw with compassion

James 2:14-17

15 If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food,

16 and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,"


James 2:14-17

and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?

17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead.

THE EYES OF A SERVANT ARE SENSATIVE.


Matthew 9: 20-22

20 And behold, a woman who had been suffering from a haemorrhage for twelve years, came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak;


Matthew 9: 20-22

21 for she was saying to herself, "If I only touch His garment, I shall get well."

22 But Jesus turning and seeing her said, "Daughter, take courage; your faith has made you well." And at once the woman was made well.


Isaiah 11:3

He will not judge by what His eyes see,

Nor make a decision by what His ears hear
