Looking At All Things Through The "Eyes of Faith"

We Must Be Found Looking at all Things Through The "Eyes of Faith" Glenn H. Jackson Words of Prophecy*       Tell My children to seek My Face, and to seek the thoughts and intentions of My heart concerning all those things that cross their path - for THEN they shall no longer live in fear of the "counterfeit", but in the joy of the knowledge [revelation] of their Lord. *       My Church is no longer going to be a church that only "talks" of Me. Truly I say to you, they shall be a Church with "Me" in their midst! *       "All" disappointment stems from a "misplaced" faith [trust]. Every one of My children must take as their only standard, the revealed knowledge of My Word - for it is then and only then, that they will be able to walk above the "certain disappointment " that comes from a continued reliance upon the things which are "seen" [perceived through the five physical senses]. Therefore, if one of My children are found to be suffering disappointment and defeat in an area of their walk, they need only seek My Will and Wisdom in that area and, as they "fix" their eyes solely on the revealed knowledge of My Word, they will no longer suffer any disappointment and frustration, for their faith shall no longer be misplaced and they shall surely gain the victory [Romans 9:33]. *       It is a dangerous thing for any of My children to "underestimate" the call I have placed upon their lives. For if they "view" things only through their own understanding, they will most surely be "limited" in what they believe they can accomplish in My service. But as they keep their eyes "fixed" upon My Word and, as they continually place themselves in a position wherein they might continually come to a deeper understanding and revelation of who they are in Christ Jesus, THEN their faith will no longer be in their "own" abilities, but rather in Mine alone. And truly I say to you, all things are possible to those who will be found believing in this final hour. *       My children must continually strive for [diligently pursue], by My Spirit, the "perfection" that is theirs in Christ. They must "continually" resist the schemes of the Evil One, and never "allow" themselves to be moved by the "imperfection" that is all around them. For as they keep their eyes "fixed" on Jesus they shall surely reach the exalted position in My Kingdom that I have prepared for them, and they shall surely come to "abide" in My perfection [Matthew 5:48]. And, in this final hour, the nations shall see a "spotless and unblemished" Church [Ephesians 5:27] raised up before them - a blinding and powerful light set on high, in their midst. *       Keep your eyes "fixed" on the things above that I might renew your mind to the "supernatural". Draw near to Me in the "inner chamber" daily that I might acclimatize you to My presence - for in this way you shall bear maximum fruit for both the Church and the Kingdom in the glorious days ahead. *       Rejoice, for this is a time of unprecedented blessing for you, My faithful and beloved ones. Only continue to keep your eyes "fixed" on the things that are "not seen" [revelation].*Every lying scheme of the Evil One against My faithful and obedient ones shall be both exposed and brought to nought in this season. *       If My children will keep their eyes "fixed" on My Word they will maintain an "eternal perspective" - for I am the Eternal One. Truly I say to you, all those who are faithful to Me[My Will] in this final hour shall receive much revelation of My plans for the remainder of this dispensation [the Church age] - as well as the ages to come. For in these days "Heaven" will begin to be revealed in the hearts of all those who are truly seeking first the establishment of My Kingdom in the earth [those maintaining a "Kingdom-consciousness"]. *       Take no preconceived notions - for truly I say to you, I shall do exceeding abundantly beyond all you could ever ask or think. Continue to "expect the unexpected"!           ...."'And many peoples will come and say, 'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; That He may teach us concerning His ways and that we may walk in His paths'. For the law [Word] will go forth from Zion [the Glorious church]".... Isaiah 2:3 NASB         ...."Arise [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you - rise to a new life]! Shine [be radiant with the glory of the Lord], for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you! For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and dense darkness [all] peoples, but the Lord shall arise upon you, and His glory shall be seen on you. And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising".... Isaiah 60:1-3 The Amplified Translation         ...."For all things are for your sakes, so that the grace which is spreading to more and more people may cause the giving of thanks to abound to the glory of God. Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, 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 4:15-18 NASB "tantamount" - equivalent, as in value, force or effect;         It is of the utmost importance in this VERY critical hour for all those who are truly seeking God to focus their eyes "perfectly" [constantly] on their Leader - thus maintaining both an eternal perspective and "Kingdom-consciousness" in ALL things. To look at things from a "worldly" perspective [in any form of pride, selfishness {self-desire}, fear etc.] from the "cave" or the "prison" [the place of persecution, trial, tribulation or isolation] would surely be "tantamount" to one looking into a mirror in a dark room with the lights turned out [as far as "spiritual reality" goes]. Let us be found looking at [viewing] ALL things through the "eyes of faith" in this hour for that which has been [established by the hand of the Enemy] shall soon be no longer in the lives of all those who have been "faithful" [loyal to the highest Will and purpose of God] - to the greatest Glory of the Father.         ...."let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing [focusing] our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God".... Hebrews 12:1-2 NASB
