look with your spiritual Eyes
To all my fellow minister and friend
You stand as one in the middle of a bridge over a river, and there are two ways you may go. On the one side of the river is lush countryside, green and full of growth. On the other side is dry land and barrenness.
Which route should you take? Do your eyes not make the choice obvious? Surely the ground that is lush and fertile is the obvious choice to make. Surely that is the way you should go. But is that the way that will lead to the fulfillment of My promises to you? Not necessarily.
My child you have not yet learned to see through the eyes of your spirit. You are looking only with natural eyes. And what may seem good to the naked eye could lead to disaster and failure.
Therefore, instead of going by what you see, you must learn to hear the voice of My Spirit within. You must sense the tugging in your heart that comes from My voice deep inside you. For I will never lead you astray.
The barren land might not look very inviting, but it could lead to far greater treasures and blessings than the way which seems so lush and pleasant.
For the ground that looks lush from a distance might contain thorns and thistles, and hidden pitfalls that you cannot see. And the way of barrenness might contain hidden treasures that you cannot see from afar.
So stop says the Lord, and listen to My still small voice within you, as the Prophet Elijah did. For he thought that I was in the mighty signs that were before his eyes. But I was not in them. I was only there in the still small voice. And in that still small voice, he received the directions that he needed to break free and rise up.
Be not hasty in your decisions, but learn to wait and move only when you hear My voice. Learn to see with spiritual eyes and not the natural. Then you will always make the right choices, and you will always walk in My blessing says the Lord.
