Which set of eyes are you using?

Were you aware that you have two sets of eyes, which are your natural eyes and the eyes of your spirit. Psalm 119:18 (TPT) says: “Open my eyes to see the miracle-wonders hidden in your word”. David knew that if he asked God to open up his spiritual eyes, he would be able to see the hidden wisdom, miracles and wonders contained in His word. God’s word is spirit and it is truth. It cannot be understood with the natural mind. It is foolishness to those who whose spiritual eyes have been darkened by the spirit of this age. There is great treasure hidden in God’s word and it is available for those who truly hunger after God with all of their hearts. If you really want to understand and know the hidden miracle wonders in God’s word, then its time to get serious with God and ask Him with all of your heart to open the eyes of your understanding.

Ephesians 1:18 “the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints”

Who are you trusting in?

Trust is a powerful factor in relationships. Trust engenders honor. Trust ascribes value. Trust says you are important. Trust says I’ve checked you out and you have character and integrity. Psalm 118:8 (AMPC) says: “It is better to trust and take refuge in the Lord than to put confidence in man.” This is not saying that we cannot trust people. There are trustworthy people around us. It is saying that we need to primarily trust God and His word. He has to be first. If we trust what people say over what God says, it will lead us astray. When God is the bedrock of our lives, nothing people say or do will lead us astray. Jeremiah 17:5 (AMP) says: “Thus says the Lord, “Cursed is the man who trusts in and relies on mankind, making [weak, faulty human] flesh his strength, and whose mind and heart turn away from the Lord”. Note how the prophet emphasizes that we must stay away from trusting in weak, faulty flesh. We are not to allow “flesh” to turn our hearts away from the Lord. So today, we need to make a personal assessment and see where our trust is. If it is in the wrong place, today is the perfect day to make the needed adjustment. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths”. Proverbs 3:5,6.
