A Book Review #12 (Chapter 11)
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
See It First From Within
Whatever you want to accomplish in life, you must see it first and take possession of it from within. It all starts from the images of your mind.
One of the beautiful things you can do for yourself as a Christian is to always build in your mind the right pictures about what you want in life.
It pays when you activate your faith-eyes to see beyond your present horizon, and envision yourself living out the very best of what God has prepared for you in this world.
God never created us to suffer or live the average life...He created us to excel and flourish in all areas of our lives. However, you must first ENVISION yourself living in that realm, living God's dream.
It's important that you help your vision so it becomes clearer to your mind. You can do that by focusing your mind on things that strengthen or enhance your vision (Study: Genesis 13:14-17).
The Three Realms Of Vision
1. The Eyes of Your Spirit
The eyes of your spirit can only see what God shows them. You can't put them to work by yourself (Study: Ephesians 1:17-18).
2. The Eyes of Your Body
The eyes of your body are your physical eyes in your head. Simply open them and you can see what's around you. They can't see the invisible.
3. The Eyes of Your Mind
The eyes of your mind are your creative eyes. [It] can produce what you want to see in the physical. [Get my book: "Recreating Your World," for more emphasis]
With your mind, you can choose what you want to see. Seeing only what exists in the physical is living at the lower plane of life. God wants you to lift your vision and see the unseen.
