​ as is the ear.  Fiveamprayer we have to be cautious of what we see and hear.  There are several layers of interpretation for the study of God's word.  When we look at blindness we find that those who are blind seek, grasp and stumble to find.  This is Adonai's will for our lives that we would seek and grasp His word--even if we stumble along the way, keep in search of Him and His word!  This is that deep down 'there has to be something more' that believers talk about.  We have a heartfelt desire to know Him again--we knew Him before we were created.  This desire shows that we could and would return to our Edenic relationship with Yahweh.  Fiveamprayer what are you laying your eyes to?  What is it that you seek with a serious focus and sometimes desperation?  Every time we learn something, that increases our insight.  The eye is often used as a metaphor for the condition of man.  Sight, vision and blindness are all in His hands.  He is drawing is to Him through our search, that we would study to find Him!  This time of study in Elohim's word gives us His truth and corrected sight!  The power to see comes from Yahweh!  The trick of the enemy was to have them in the garden to obtain sight in disobedience to Adonai's word.  This action caused them to loose what they had and what was to be revealed to them.  Click here​ to listen to this one!  That we would all come out of blindness into His marvelous light!​
