The Glass
2020
Many prophetic words have come forth about this year. Some have made mention to 20/20 vision: that Believers will have spiritual insight, being able to SEE and understand what is taking place in the unseen realm, which affects the natural realm.
Now let’s pretend that you are sitting at a table and before you is a glass of water. The water line is in the middle of the glass. How do you SEE it? Is it half full? Or would you say no, the glass is half empty!
The Kingdom of God
Let’s look at some examples of how Believers SEE earthly circumstances and the results that follow.
Jesus’ Ministry … He didn’t SEE sickness and disease; He saw the multitudes healed! “Then great multitudes came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at Jesus’ feet, and He healed them.” (Matthew 15:30)
If Jesus was focused on the horrible conditions of the “great multitudes” He would not have had faith to heal. “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.” (John 5:19)
This is very important for The Church to remember. To walk and live in the Spirit, Galatians 5:25, we must go inward and SEE what God says. Jesus desires His Body to do the greater works! (John 14:12)
Elisha and his servant…The King of Syria was making war with Israel. “When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked.
“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. As the enemy came down toward him, Elisha prayed to the Lord, “Strike this army with blindness.” So He struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked.” (2 Kings 6:15-20) Elisha had NO fear because he was in the Spirit and saw the armies of the Lord encamped about them.
You also have mighty angels beside you.
“The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them.” (Psalm 34:7 and also Psalm 91:9-13) SEE that!
The Twelve Spies… God told Moses to send out one leader from each tribe to spy out the land that God was giving them. Ten leaders said they could not take the land. “… the people are too strong, the cities are fortified, and the giants live there.” Caleb and Joshua saw the same circumstances but believed what God said. They replied, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.”
Faith is bold and takes possession of what God has promised.
Sadly, the ten leaders transferred their fear and unbelief to two million people who then wept all night. They spoke what they saw in their hearts: “... we will fall by the sword!” (Numbers Chapter 13 & 14)
Secrets of The Kingdom of God
You cannot speak boldly what you cannot SEE.
Faith in God/His Word produces vision and boldness in the inner man.
If you can't SEE it it is because you are in doubt/fear.
Faith requirement: meditate on His promise day and night. (Joshua 1:8-9)
Satan desires to steal all traces of the Word of God from you, The Church, and the earth!
Satan’s job is to limit and keep you in your mind and natural senses. “This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. (James 3:15)
Your Kingdom inheritance comes in proportion to your knowledge and acting on who God says you are.
You must know/SEE who you are…in Christ!
We are written epistles! (2 Corinthians 3:2-3)
Holy Spirit is waiting for your faith-filled words…words that carry what you SEE, whatsoever you desire.
Grace Knowledge or Revelation Knowledge comes from the Father so we can act on it.
Job said, “For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.” Job saw it inside first…
Abraham did not see his aged body, but believed that what God had promised He was able also to perform. (Romans 4:21) He saw himself the "father of many nations!"
You have to SEE it before you can speak it. The “abundant life” is in you.
Jesus endured the cross, by looking at “the joy that was set before Him.” (Hebrews 12:2) Jesus SAW His resurrection. Jesus saw you and me born again!
You control your world. Say to the mountain … Mark 11:222-23
Difficult times are here but “Faith is the VICTORY that overcomes the world.” (1 John 5:4) But faith requires you SEE the end result before you speak it! (Mark 11:23)
God saw these “perilous times” before the foundation of the world and ordained that you and I would be born in this time to establish His Word and His Kingdom: to bring in the lost before Jesus’ return in the air! Can you SEE that?
Is the glass half empty?
Are you negative and without hope? You don’t know who you are in Christ or the power of the Holy Spirit within you. Turn off the News and get in the Word of God! Your hopelessness infects The Body. (Ephesians 4:14-32)
Do you see the glass half full?
Caleb and Joshua SAW God with them and released their faith! “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.” How you SEE is a reflection of what you’re seeing, hearing, and thinking about day and night!
When Caleb and Joshua were spying out the land they must have been so excited, “This good land belongs to us!
This is That … The Kingdom of God
“…on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” (Matthew 16:18-19)
God will not do what He told YOU to do first!
Take the land, Saints.
The Power of Intercession must go out first… and we have an election to take now for this President and for our great nation!
