What You See With Your Natural Eyes Is Not Always The Truth

 

I recently bought Bamboo Charcoal fluoride-free toothpaste. I must admit, the first time I squeezed the black toothpaste on my toothbrush was quite a mind challenge. While brushing, your teeth and mouth are black and yet it cleans your teeth. The black toothpaste on your toothbrush and inside your mouth, is quite something to get used to. Fortunately, your mouth and teeth feel refreshed and clean afterwards.

I want to share an amazing testimony with you.

What you see with your natural eyes is not always the truth.

End of August this year, a church invited Stephanus and I to minister at a Women’s Conference in Breyten Mpumalanga.

Earlier this year, my mother had given me a beautiful pair of emerald ear studs, something which belonged to her. I decided to wear the ear studs to the women’s conference.

After the conference, back at the guesthouse, I discovered, horror of horrors, my one ear stud was missing. We searched everywhere. Stephanus even moved furniture in the quest for my lost ear stud, but all to no avail. Even after we left, people were still looking for my ear stud, not only at the guest house but also back at the church where we ministered. But alas, it was nowhere to be found.

About four weeks later I was on the phone with Stephanus during loadshedding, with him explaining to me how to open the garage door manually, as I could not open it remotely due to no electricity. After our conversation I was trying to get my hands underneath the garage door to lift it and there, on the cement floor, underneath the garage door, was my lost ear stud. The stud was clean and unscathed, as before it was lost. That ear stud is so small, if it was not for the loadshedding, and my trying to lift the garage door, I would not even have seen it, laying on the floor.

Now remember, I lost it in Breyten, Mpumalanga and found it back in Klerksdorp, North West, almost four weeks later. It is nothing BUT a miracle.

In March of this year, Stephanus lost his wedding ring. We searched everywhere, for days, with no result, and because he did not want to be without a wedding ring, we replaced it with a cheap stainless-steel ring. Then about three months later he discovered his lost wedding ring at Life FM in the box of the Roadcaster. Another miracle.

It is as if the things we lost come back to us or it seems lost, but it was not.

What you see with your natural eyes is not always the truth.

Maybe. You have lost something. Maybe. You think it is lost, but it is not. I am not necessarily talking about natural things but relationships as well. Maybe. That relationship you think of as lost, is not.

Hebrews 11:1 and 6 says:

“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.”

Hebrews 11:1 in the TPT reads:

“Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen.”

In Genesis 11:6 in the Amplified Translation we read: “Nothing they imagine they can do will be impossible for them.”

So, what do you see?

What do you want to see?

Decide what you want to see or find because maybe that “thing” or “relationship” is not lost at all. Maybe. What is lost just needs to be found. What do you like to see? What do you want the outcome to look like? Now use your imagination and speak it into existence, ask God to restore, command the angels to find and return what was lost.

Maybe. You didn’t get that job promotion. Maybe. God wants you to start your own business.  Ask Him.  What do you see?

Set your focus on what you desire, feel it in your body, see your desire with your pineal gland. You are creating a desire to match “as it is in heaven” with “let it be on earth”.

Be surrounded by the joy that comes from the fulfilment of your desire. Hold it in your mind, in your heart and then release it into the earth, the natural realm.

Too many times we only consider what we can see in the natural, but we serve a supernatural God who is working in ways we cannot see.

Always remember, what you see with your natural eyes is not always the truth.

And remember:

Because of Christ in you,

You ARE blessed

You ARE protected

The Lord smiles on you

And He IS gracious to you.

His favour IS upon you.

And you already HAVE His peace inside you.

 

May you have many Godly encounters.  Until next time. 

 

 SHALOM.
