731. Seeing Saviour

Luk_19:5

Christ “looked up and saw Zacchaeus.” A seeking sinner is never lost sight of by the seeing Saviour. There are seven things the Saviour sees.

1. He sees what we are and tells us we have sinned, as He made known to Paul—Rom_3:23.

2. He sees what we have done, as He made the woman of Samaria to realise—Joh_4:29.

3. He sees what we cannot do, as He reminded Nicodemus when He told him he needed to be born again or from above—Joh_3:5-7.

4. He sees what we want, namely, eternal life, as the disciples discovered—Joh_6:68.

5. He sees what we would like to do, namely, “to do good,” and gives us the Spirit to accomplish (Rom_7:19, Rom_8:2).

6. He sees our difficulties, as He saw the disciples “toiling in rowing,” and gives deliverance (Mar_6:48).

7. He sees our trials, and supplies the sufficient grace, as He did the Apostle—2Co_12:9.
