Luk 18:35 And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging: 36and hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant. 37And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by. 38And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
They told the blind man that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. But when the blind man cried out, he did not say Jesus of Nazareth, but rather Jesus thou Son of David. The blind man knew that Jesus was something more than just Jesus of Nazareth. He addressed him as the Messiah. Maybe because he knew that one of the prophecies about the Messiah was that he should open the blind eyes. When Jesus asked him: What do you want me to do for you, his reply was: Lord that I may receive my sight. He received his sight because he knew who Jesus was.
When Jesus met the woman at the well, he told her: If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, give me to drink: though would have asked him...
Your prayers reveals if you really know who Jesus is!
