The Power of My Spiritual Eyes

How powerful are your spiritual eyes? How far and what you can see determine what comes to you.  Many are looking but seeing nothing and this is affecting the full delivery of God’s promises to them. This post is a call to re-evaluate what you see with your spiritual eyes.

Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things from your law – Psalm 119:18 (NKJV)

So he said, “You have asked a hard thing. Nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it shall be so for you; but if not, it shall not be so.” – 2 Kings 2:2 (NKJV)

How much of God’s promises you experience in your life depends on how much of it you see with your spiritual eyes. If you can see the promise of God in the word of God, you will have it. When you see it, your understanding comes alive, and then will you have it. It’s not enough to read the word of God, you have to go beyond reading to seeing it, only then will the truth come alive in you. And when you see it with your spiritual eyes, no matter how long it takes you will see it with your physical eyes.

God demonstrated this principle in many places in the scriptures. In Genesis 13:14-15, God promised to give Abraham all the land he could see: northward, southward, eastward and westward. I believe he saw the land with his spiritual eyes, because the land God gave the Israelites when they came out from Egypt, a man’s physical eyes can’t see all of it.

Also in Jeremiah 1:11-14, God got Jeremiah to see His word before He could relate His message to him. In one, He told him, “You have seen well”. How well do you see? Jeremiah needed to understand God’s word before carrying it to others, and it was preceded by him seeing it first. God walked in the same manner with Zechariah (Zechariah 4:1-14, 5:1-4) Read more...
