Seeing means to look at something. The Bible tells us NOT to fix our eyes on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
I like what one translation says: What we see is subject to change!!
If we are no longer living for this life, but for eternity, then why become 'fixated' with the things of this world which are temporary? especially as wisdom, insight, strength, vision, answers etc. all come when our focus is on God, His Word, His promises.
We are not to be blind to natural circumstances, and act as though they didn't exist, but approach them from Gods perspective, expecting and anticipating them to change for the good!
He wants to hear from you today in order to help you with what you are seeing.
Tell us how God gave you wisdom the last time you told Him about something.

There are so many times in life situations when you are tempted to lool at the cicumstances and not on God.
Thankyou for reminding us who our focus should be on regardless of what is going on around us.

God has been bugging me with this scripture for weeks and was teaching me only this weekend about 2 Corin 4.18 and how this verse shows us that there are two realms – the seen realm and the spiritual realm. We are instructed to look at the unseen realm, because if we focus on the seen realm we are not going to experience the spiritual realm. He said 'The realm that you look at Karen is the realm you are going to live in!' Praise God - I know what I am looking at! Thank you God and Pastor Julie - Blessings Karen

God has been showing me about renewing my mind with the word of God (the bible). If I take what Gods word says about a situation and meditate on it (keep thinking about what God said) it will renew my mind (thoughts and thinking)) about that situation and then I will see things how God sees them. It will work for anyone (if your an anyone it will work for you)!
