Eyes To See

DAY 1 OF 3

You Have Spiritual Eyes

God is Spirit, and He can communicate directly with us through our spirit. He can speak to us through thoughts, with words, but also images and visions.

The prophet Joel, taken up by the apostle Peter on the day of Pentecost, announced that in the last days, Christians would have visions. This is an experience that many biblical characters have had. It is now available for all those who have become the temple of the Holy Spirit after being born again.

The apostle Paul prays that the Ephesians open their spiritual eyes, which means that we have spiritual eyes that can be closed or open (Eph 1:18). This is also what Jesus shared when He said that those who have eyes see (Matt 13:15-16).

Our spiritual eyes allow us to perceive spiritual realities--what God is doing. They also let us see the images that God wants to transmit to us. They are called visions.

The first important thing about visions is to be attentive to what we can see in our minds.

You may be wondering, “What’s a vision?”

Take a few moments to imagine a pink elephant.

Do you have a mental picture of it?

A vision is a mental image except that it is spontaneous, it is not a figment of your imagination, and God is the source.

I discuss other types of visions in more detail in the book Listening to God (a practical and biblical guide to recognizing God’s voice) [especially through visions].

It is through faith, knowing that it is a biblical promise, that you will be able to grasp God’s visions so that you can receive the whole message.

God’s visions can be simple to understand. This is what Jacqueline, a reader of Listening to God, experienced.

“This morning, I was reading your book Listening to God anddecided to put it into practice. I asked God how He saw me. In quietly listening to him, I had a vision.

“I saw a little girl hiding, and her father was looking for her. They were both playing hide-and-seek. The father found his daughter, who threw herself into his arms as her father hugged her.

“He said, ‘I will never forsake or abandon you, I love you, and you are my child, my beloved.’ I felt many emotions and had tears in my eyes because the love that this father had for this child was so strong, so pure, and so sincere! I still have tears in my eyes as I’m writing this to you.”

Do you understand the power of vision? Through this simple vision, Jacqueline received a powerful revelation of God’s love for her.

Would you like God to speak to you through visions too? I invite you to pray with me.

Heavenly Father, thank You for saving me and placing Your Spirit in me. I ask Your forgiveness for all the times I neglected what You showed me. Open my spiritual eyes so that I can see what You want to show me. Holy Spirit, what do You want to show me now?

Take a few minutes to focus on Jesus in you and receive what He shows you.

About this Plan

Eyes To See

A picture is worth more than 1000 words! This is why God speaks to us through visions so that He can communicate very deep revelations, emotions, and imprint His thoughts on our hearts in a fraction of a second. I propose to discover how to receive visions from God, how to interpret them, and the effect they can have on your life.
