Topic:  THE MYSTERY OF THE SEEING EYES

Content: 

 *Jeremiah 1:11-12*

 
*Genesis 3:7* - “Then the *eyes* of both of them were *opened*, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.”
 
There are a set of eyes connected to our spiritual faculty. There are another pair connected to our brain.
 
Your spiritual eyes can navigate both the spiritual and the physical plain, whilst your natural eyes can only steer you through the physical dimension.
 
*1. What Do You See?*
 
*Jeremiah 1:11-12* - “Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Jeremiah, *what do you see?*” And I said, “*I see* a branch of an almond tree.” Then the Lord said to me, “*You have seen well*, for I am ready to perform My word.”
 
When God asks “What do you see?”always remember He has the marking script.
 
*Seeing in the spirit means seeing accurately what God is seeing.*
 
When you ‘see in the spirit,’ you command the ability to:
1. Discern - “*I see..*”
2. Distinguish - You not only see a branch, but a branch of an almond tree
3. Declare (with confidence) - And *I said*, “I see a branch of an almond tree.”
 
*Reflection*
1. What do you see concerning your destiny in God?
2. What do you see concerning your family, the territory God has assigned to you, your ministry, your career?
 
 
 
 
 
*2. Eyes That Do Not See*
 
*Genesis 13:10-11* -  “And *Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan*, that it was well watered everywhere (before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar. Then *Lot chose for himself* all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east. And they separated from each other.”
 
*Spiritual blindness* (- having eyes that do not see -) is one of Satan’s potent weapons to keep men in spiritual darkness. In this state, we have eyes but no vision or perception!
 
“*The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.*” - Helen Keller
 
*There is nothing invisible in this universe. There is only lack of vision!*
 
*A man’s dependence on his physical eyes will continue to dim his spiritual eyes.*
 
 
 
*3. As Far As Your Eyes Can See*
 
*Genesis 13:14-15* -  “And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward; *for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever.*”
 
*Your destiny and those of your posterity may rely on your accuracy to see clearly in the spirit.*
 
“*Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.*” - Jonathan Swift
 
*If you can see it, you can have it.* That is, in this Kingdom, you can only have what you can see.
 
 

Prayer Points: 

 

*Prayer Point 1* - Father, as Elisha prayed in 2 Kings 6:20, open my eyes that I may see what you see and also behold wondrous things from Your law.
 
*Prayer Point 2* - Father, according to Revelation 3:18, I receive Your counsel to buy gold tried in the fire, so that I may become truly rich, and white clothes (representing righteousness) to be clothed so that the shame of my nakedness will not be seen; and *anoint my eyes with eye salve, that I may see*.
 

*Prayer Point 3* - Father, enlarge my faith to accurately capture the length and breadth and depth of my destiny and the resources you have designated for me.
