28 When he went into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to him, "Yes, Lord." 29 Then he touched their eyes saying, "Let it be done for you according to your faith."
Matt 9:28-29 (NET)
The word faith came from the Latin word fidēs which means belief and trust or simply the word itself. Trust is always tessellate with faith and will always be. When Jesus ask the blind men, He is also questioning him for his trust. But the blind men never came a second thought but quickly respond to Jesus and trust in Him. For the blind men know who Jesus is and he also know what Jesus can do. 'Yes, Lord' should be a habit for us believers like the blind men for the Lord is always asking 'Do you trust me?' or 'Do you believe in me?'
Trusting someone or something is putting your faith on it. Which is why it is the first thing you need to do when asking Jesus. You need to trust Him first so whatever you ask will be granted.
When trust comes, there will be miracle. So whenever we trust Jesus, we are putting faith on Him. And after we put faith on something, Jesus then will do the miracle on it. We should learn to trust Jesus and put faith on Him in prayer and everything for He is powerful and able.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding." from Prov. 3:5 (NET) which proves that we should always trust the Lord and never doubt on it. Never assume and expect on something for the Lord only knows what to give and to be granted.
