You become what you See

Monday 16 February
READ: Jer. 1: 10 - 13
MORE LESSON: Heb 12: 2

The Bible tells us to keep looking unto Jesus because what a man sees is very important. Your destiny is determined by what you see: what you see determines your purpose and your purpose determines your destiny. Our first purpose here on the earth is to represent Jesus and then to end up with Him in heaven. Your purpose on earth is beyond marriage, career or even ministry. Your number one assignment in life is Jesus and to let everyone see Jesus in your life. This is why having your sight focused on Him is very important; because if people must see Jesus in you, you must first have your sight on Him. The people of Antioch saw the disciples and called them Christians because they lived, walked, talked and conducted themselves like Christ. (Acts 11: 26).

Your sight also determines your direction. A blind man does not know the direction to go because direction comes out of sight and vision. Only a man with sight can know whether he is facing east or west. You cannot operate in grace except your sight is properly fixed. Whatever you cannot see will never be yours. God saw a great man in Jeremiah but Jeremiah himself had to see correctly for there to be a manifestation of what God had seen about him. The Bible records thus; "What do you see, Jeremiah?" "I see the branch of an almond tree," I replied. The Lord said to me, "You have seen correctly, for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled." Jer 1:11-12 (NIV) Your sight is important in becoming what God has prepared for you and getting to where God wants you to. If you can see it you can get it.

No matter what people say about you always guard what you see about yourself and how to do this is by fixing your sight on the Word of God. You are not to be disturbed about what somebody says about you but rather be concerned about what God has said about you because your sight determines your direction. A man who keeps his eyes backwards and is trying to move forward direction is courting a fall.

As you keep looking unto Jesus by fixing your eyes on the word, your purpose will be clear and your destiny will be fulfilled. This is your portion in Jesus’ name.

Prayer/Action

PROPHETIC PRAYER
