While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:18 KJV)
The bible tells us to live by faith, and not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). Living by faith is living according to what the Word of God says and by the leading of the Holy Spirit. Living by sight is living according to your feelings (your five physical senses) and allowing circumstances and situations to control you. We need to learn how to live from the higher realm, where things are enforced. The spiritual realm controls the natural realm. What we see is subject to change, we can control what we want to see by faith.
For example, you may be feeling really sick and a doctor might even give you a terrible diagnosis. But you don’t have to be sick, it is not God’s Will for you. Isaiah 53:4-5 says, 4 Surely our sicknesses he hath borne, And our pains — he hath carried them, And we — we have esteemed him plagued, Smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 And he is pierced for our transgressions, Bruised for our iniquities, The chastisement of our peace [is] on him, And by his bruise there is healing to us. Jesus took our sicknesses and carried our pains, we don’t have to take sickness or pain! Many people are quick a pill to relieve their symptoms and pain. However, God has given us something that can erradict it forever. It is the Word of God! Believe it, recieve it, confess it and act on it!
Prayer starter: Heavenly father, I ask for the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of you. And that the eyes of my understanding are enlightened. So that I will know the hope of your calling and live in a way that always honors and pleases you. Amen
You’re blessed!
