SPIRITUAL EYESIGHT
II Kings 6:17
"And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.' Then the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha."
It's an old, old sermon, but it still preaches. Spiritual things seem foolish to the unsaved, and they can only be comprehended with spiritual eyesight. As the Apostle wrote: "The natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." We live and work among people who have no spiritual understanding, and godly insight seems "foolishness" to them. Belief in the Bible and Christian faith seems to them to be intellectually inferior because all they can see is the natural. May God open their eyes to the dimension of spiritual reality.
TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: The Spirit-filled person sees life differently than the unbeliever.

Have a "vision" day. Love you.
