February Fast - 21 Days Of Seeking HimSample

Clear Sight.

The other day, I got my new glasses and I tell you, the world around me now looks a bit different! Now I’m able to see what I couldn’t see clearly before and it brings a dimension to my life that I haven’t experienced for a long time. The biggest difference now is that I see the details in the world around me. 

What we see, and how we see it, determines the way we live life. In this season of fasting, we have a great opportunity to get our sight fixed. When Mary is standing outside the grave talking to Jesus, she thinks He is the gardener. She is looking at Jesus but she doesn’t recognize Him. But when Jesus speaks to her, her eyes open and she cries out, ‘My Lord, my master!’ The whole situation changed when she saw Jesus. This is what we pray for, too, during this fast. A fresh revelation of God, where we see Him as He really is in detail! 

When we see Him, our faith grows. When we see Him, we’re being transformed into His likeness. When we see Him, our faith and approach to life and the world around us becomes courageous, influential and attractive. If your sight, for one reason or the other, is blurred, or maybe you’re totally blind, the Holy Spirit can touch your spiritual eyes today. He can bring back sight again so you are able to see all who God is and all the good things He has in store for you.

Father, today I ask you to touch my eyes so I’m able to clearly see who you are. Help me also to see myself, the things and people in my life through your eyes. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
