The Bible teaches that the works of God are manifested through Jesus, revealing His power and sovereignty, even in our afflictions.
The works of God are expressed in John 9:3, where Jesus explains that a man was born blind so that the works of God might be manifest in him. This highlights that God's sovereignty extends even to our hardships, orchestrating events for His divine purpose. This manifestation is not solely for physical healing but serves to point to the greater spiritual realities—the opening of spiritual eyes, allowing us to see Christ and the truth of God's word. As seen in the healing of the blind man, these works compel us to recognize God's glory and our need for His grace.
