The Eyes of God

 “Judge not according to the appearance but judge righteous judgment (John 7:24).”

Affirmation – Our eyes are the eyes of God. 

In addition to your two natural eyes, God has given you spiritual insight and intuition which many people refer to as the third eye or the sixth sense. Your spiritual insight empowers you to walk by faith and not by human sight (II Corinthians 5:7). Through the eyes of faith, you see beyond your natural limitations to supernatural possibilities. 

Jesus, our Wayshower, saw people through his Christ eyes. His perspective of people was different from those who were only seeing others through natural eyes. Jesus even saw potential in people that they did not see in themselves. Despite physical appearances, he saw their capacity for health, harmony in all relationships and wealth.

When your soul is in alignment with your Spirit, it impacts your perception of people, places, and things. You see people from a divine perspective. Regardless of age, gender, race, orientation, culture, religion, socio-economic status, you see all people as the children of God, made in the image and likeness of God.  You see beyond challenges and behold the good in all people, places, and situations (Matthew 5:8). Even in the most overwhelming circumstances like we are experiencing now, our spirit gives us access to a vision of perfection, 20/20 vision in 2020. 

Reflection Question – How do you handle it when your natural eyes and your spiritual eyes see things differently?

Vision Activity – Close your natural eyes and spend 5 minutes visualizing yourself and your life through your spiritual eyes.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

There’s a Grace on Your Life

  There’s a Grace on Your Life "By grace you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."    Ephesians 2:8 (KSB)    In Ephesians chapter 2, one word stands out repeatedly: grace . But what is grace? Grace is God’s unmerited favor, His love poured out on us, not based on anything we've done or failed to do. It’s not about what we think or don’t think. It’s simply a gift. A beautiful, divine surprise.  Imagine receiving an unexpected bonus at work, you did your job, and suddenly you're given more than you earned. That’s grace. It comes when you least expect it and fills you with joy and wonder. This is how God extends His grace freely, abundantly, and lovingly.  Throughout Ephesians 2, Paul highlights how grace is woven into our salvation. “By grace you are saved” means you didn’t do it yourself. Salvation is the awakening in your spirit to the truth that  you are God's beloved .   ...

  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God. Why am I having this test, this trial, this tribulation? So God can get the glory. Why am I experiencing this persecution, this headache, this pain? So, God can get the glory. Why am I witnessing this miracle, sign, or wonder? So, God can get the glory. Why am I having this challenge in my local assembly, in my ministry, in my business, and in my organization? So God can get the...
