Introduction

Are the things that we see, what we really see? Or do we really see our own personal desires? Well that totally depends on what our intentions are. What is our personal interest or investment in it? Well let’s find out why we think that what we see is what it is.

See What?

I can look to the north, to the south, west and then east. Each direction that I look I should see something different. But perception through the human eye comes from experiences. If you saw a vicious animal how would you respond?

If you see a broken bridge you know not to cross it. Or would you attempt to if you had a different perception of it. This depends on your ability and your resources. If you have a way to repair the bridge, had the desire and motivation then you would still cross the bridge. To consider that crossing the bridge is just to get from point A to point B is it really that difficult?

This depends on your motivation and revelation. Motivation is something that you have control of, revelation is what you have been shown or it has been revealed to you. Typically I have seen revelation come through confession of His word, which then gives me an image and motivation; it can also come through your positive attitude and confession.

Knowing that his word will not return to him void, but it will accomplish that in which he sent it to, I am now able to accomplish the task.

I should have no fear when He sends His word or reveals things to me. Immediately when the word or vision is sent receive it, grab it, plant (speak) it and see the image within you, have the physical image to manifest in your life. See the end result. See peace, pleasure and mission accomplished.

Don’t try to reason within yourself saying “I don’t know how” or “that it is impossible”, control your thoughts and your tongue. Say yes, I can do that. Take the image of victory over defeat, success over failure, good health over sickness, and all good over any bad. This is what we do in all things.

The images that you allow to remain within you, over your life and the way you see others has a major affect on every action or reaction to the situations in your life. If a friend was to ask you to help them move to another home but you know that they have a handicap, what do you see next? That you’re going to have to do all of the work? That it will be a long day?

There are many things that you can imagine about it, but why give the thought that things will be difficult before you even approach it?

Bless the situation before you get there. You should have an image of just “yes” and one of ease. Do not take on the thought of how hard it’s going to be, because thoughts are images and typically after we receive images we begin to speak them, which then sets off spiritual forces.

Isaiah 55:10-11

as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it

April Showers Bring May Flowers

Some of us love the sight of flowers but what about the rain showers that help produce the flowers? Why do some people like red flowers, some blue, some yellow and some all or just various colors? Is it because of experiences?

Some might say I like red roses because my husband always gets me red roses for my birthday or special occasions. That must be a good experience for that individual. They see happy moments, it is pleasurable for them to recall and it all came from an experience. The flowers give them an image of past experiences.

Well if I were to tell you that you are healed, why don’t you take that image. We all have had some type of illness, maybe a scratch or bruise and watched it heal. So when I say, you are healed why can’t you take that image the same as the person who sees the roses and it makes them happy, but you see yourself healed?

Some people hear April showers and they think of how they are going to have to wash there car constantly to keep it clean, or maybe clean the floors more often. Some would maybe think of streets washing out, roof leaks, or basements flooding. You can let your mind wander off to where ever you want it to it’s your choice.

If you enjoy flowers and April showers give birth to the May flowers then shouldn’t you be thankful for the rain showers as well?

To hold negative images over things can damage your entire spirit, because one bad image will spill over into something else, your negative thoughts will reproduce into other things or other areas. It’s a part of seed time and harvest because everything produces after its own kind. This will make you wonder, do I like the flowers more than the rain?

Think of the flowers because the rain will pass, you need to see the end result.

Genesis 1:11-12

Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed,andthe fruit tree thatyields fruit according to its kind, whose seedisin itself, on the earth”; and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, the herbthat yields seed according to its kind, and the treethatyields fruit, whose seedisin itself according to its kind. And God saw thatit was good.

Hide Me Please

Make me like the winds that blow, to be here then there. When I get there no one will really know and when I leave the same also. What I am speaking of here is the desire to be more of a spiritual person, rather than depending completely on my five senses.

We may hear the winds sweeping through the trees or feel the delight of them across our brow but we never actually see them. We see and feel the affects of them. The same as when lightning strikes and you hear and feel the rumble of thunder but you have no idea where it dissipates to. Does that rumble continue on forever? If the rumble goes deep enough within you it very well could last forever in you at least in thought, because of the image that it gave you.

How does the wind lose it force and then gain it again? Does its members just disassemble themselves and then reassemble again? If I could only walk in the Spirit when I choose to I could be like the winds. Because the Bible says that everyone that is born of the Spirit is like the wind, so it must be possible.

If I walk only according to my reasoning (human knowledge) I will surely fail and I know that I am more than a conqueror. I must seek first the Kingdom of God and He said it is his pleasure to give me the Kingdom. The Bible says that the Spirit searches all things, yes even the deep things of God. We need that intimacy with Him. Holding back the Spirit can cause death in so many ways. Don’t take the term death so literal but consider
