2 Kings 6:15-17 (Contemporary English Version) When Elisha's servant got up the next morning, he saw that Syrian troops had the town surrounded. "Sir, what are we going to do?" he asked. "Don't be afraid," Elisha answered. "There are more troops on our side than on theirs." Then he prayed, "LORD, please help him to see." And the LORD let the servant see that the hill was covered with fiery horses and flaming chariots all around Elisha.
We are to walk by faith believing what God says not what our eyes see. When we focus on the circumstance then we do not give God the freedom to change it. Things will often get worse in the natural before they get better. No matter how bad things look in the natural when God opens your eyes your outlook will change, your faith will grow. Stop looking at your circumstances and look to Jesus. We need God to open our eyes so we can see.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Forgive our weak faith, Oh Lord, open our eyes so we may see. Let us see our circumstances through Your eyes. Increase and strengthen our faith. When we see through Your eyes, open our minds and hearts to see others who need a touch from You. Show us how to be Your hands and feet, to be Jesus with skin on. Through it all giving You all the glory and praise, in Jesus name, amen.
Love and God Bless,
Cindy Irwin
