A Book Review #14 (Chapter 13)
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
See All Things New!
2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; BEHOLD, all things are become new."
There's a powerful word here I want us to study; it's that word "BEHOLD." It means "SEE." Paul, by the Spirit, was saying, "see, all things are become new!" This is a charge, an instruction by the Spirit.
What are you seeing? Someone says, "Since I've been born again, things haven't changed." But that's not what the scripture says here. If you've not been seeing all things new, then you've been looking at the wrong thing.
Stop seeing yourself with the natural limitations you were born with. Stop seeing yourself as subject to the misfortunes that may have plagued your family. You belong in a new family now-the family of God.
This is why it's so important that you go to the right church [where you] are exposed to God's Word. When people go to the wrong place, their vision is altered, and they start seeing the wrong things. God's Word gives you the right pictures and visions.
Let your focus be on what the Lord has shown you. If you keep looking at what negative minded people are showing you, that's what you'll have. It doesn't matter that God has already done something for you, you've got to "see" it to possess it!
What can you see? The extent of your vision is the boundary of your blessing! How far can your mind go? What do you see about your career, business, family, ministry, academics, etc.? It's time for you to SEE!
