HOW FAR AND WELL ARE YOU SEEING?
SONG:
I can see everything turning around,
Everything turning around,
Everything turning around,
For my good.
TEXT :
"And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever."
(Genesis 13 verses 14 and 15)
Our destinies are often dictated and limited to what we see. In other words, what we see can define the limits of our destiny.
I want us to ask ourselves these questions:
What am I seeing? How far am I seeing? Am I seeing well? What am I doing with what I'm seeing?
There are certain things that are affecting our visions that we need to do away with. Besides, there are certain people we need to separate ourselves from, if we want to see far and well.
Abraham needed to separate himself from Lot before he could see well and far. We tend to be surrounded with many things and people that are not adding value to our lives; that are rather subtracting values from us.
In Genesis 15 verse 5, the Bible says,
"And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be."
Abraham also needed to come outside his tent before he could see clearly to count the stars of heaven. We may need to do some things which are likely to cause us some pain or discomfort in order for us to attain our God given destiny.
In Hebrews 12 verse 1, the Bible says
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,"
Perhaps, there are some little weights that do so easily beset us, which if not done away with can result in setbacks and unproductiveness in our lives.
For example, the company we keep, the kind of job or business we do, our character, our attitude, faith or lack of faith in the Word of God, etc. All these and many more can affect our advancement or otherwise.
The year 2025 has just begun. It's a year of joy, rejoicing, and celebrations. Do not let it be like the previous years that came and passed away without experiencing good success in life. Pray the Holy Spirit to help you to do what is expected of you. You may need to stop that business, or end that relationship, or change that job, or to relocate to some other place in order to experience the breakthrough that you so earnestly desire to see in life. I pray that before the end of the year and through the Holy Spirit's help, you'll experience an entrance into your next level in life, in Jesus name.
PRAYER
I separate myself from everyone and anything that is obscuring my vision, that I may see my destiny fulfilled, in the Mighty name of Jesus. 🙏 🙏 🙏
