Aug. 04, 2013–The Eyes of the Lord

eye of GodBehold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who hope for His lovingkindness, to deliver their soul from death and to keep them alive in famine… (Psalm 33:18-19)

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil. (1 Peter 3:12)

About a week ago I saw in a vision the eye of God.  It was an ancient eye filled with great wisdom.  His eye stayed on me as I looked at it.  It was like I could not escape it.  It was intimidating, fascinating and wonderful at the same time.

I never thought deeply about it except that I knew that I had a truly beautiful vision.  When I started to tell others about what I saw, they relayed the above two verses to me.  That is when the wheels within my head began to turn.

I had been sowing a lot of money into my ministry work and I had a sense that I was about to go into a famine in the natural.  Now I have sown a lot in the past and know what it is like to have breakthrough afterward, but I guess I was a little wary of what could happen next.

I never saw Psalm 33 quite that way before.  The Lord keeps our soul from death and keeps us alive in famine.  I know now everything will be fine because the eye of God is on me.

And then I got excited when I saw 1 Peter 3:12 because I felt the vision also meant that He was going to hear my prayers and my prayers are generally for God’s people to be revived.  I felt He was going to revive His church and that everywhere I go this will happen.

When you know that God is with you in all that you do great boldness begins to take over your life.  When God shows Himself to you and says He is with you, then you begin to act and pray differently.

What we need in this hour are people with faith who understand that the eye of God is on them.  We need people to get a revelation that God is going to fight their battles and that when they stretch themselves to accomplish great things for God then he is going to act on their behalf.

God is looking to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose hearts are loyal to Him.  Are you loyal to God?  If you are, then He will make Himself strong in your life.

The strength of the Lord in your life is a powerful testimony.  The strength of the Lord allows me to say that God is on my side.  I often tell people to look at my life and what He has done for me.  Can people see the hand of God on your life?  They see the prosperity in me and my children, they see the good health, joy and strength inside of you.

Do you trust God?  Do you know God?  It is not a judgement if you don’t.  I am asking you this so that you will seek His face because as you seek His face He will reveal Himself to you.

You will become what you meditate upon.  Are you focusing on all that is negative in your life or are you focusing on God?  When your worship is to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords then great joy and peace will enter into your life no matter what storm comes your way.

Turn to the Lord today and confess your weakness.  He will make himself strong in your weakness.
