What Do You See?

I’ve always heard this analogy: one person saw an orange fruit, another saw the variants of the orange—orange juice; yet another saw a groundnut, while someone else saw peanut butter. This highlights the importance of what we see as we walk with God.

God created us to always see something. Our ability to see determines how far we can go in Him and what we can receive from Him.

Exodus 7:1 — “See, I have made you as god to Pharaoh.”  

The word "see" here comes from the Hebrew word:

- Hebrew: re’eh

- Root: ra’ah (רָאָה)

- Meaning: to see, look, perceive, or behold.

In this context, it’s used as an imperative — a command: “Look!” or “Behold!”

In that moment, God was awakening Moses—calling him to rise from spiritual slumber. The victory wasn’t only going to be won on the day of confrontation, but had already begun when God gave him the assignment.

As far as our eyes can see—God’s word for that situation, His victory over the enemy—we can war with it. Our physical eyes aren’t the only thing needed, but also the ability to perceive what’s happening in God’s agenda. We see it, look at it, perceive it, and then behold it.

God is asking us today:

- “Have you seen what I said concerning this battle?”  

- “Have you seen that victory could be yours if you simply posture in this direction?”  

- “Have you seen the path, even if it doesn’t look like it physically?”  

- “Have you seen that I once turned water into wine, so turning water into bread is no new feat? I am the One who thrives in impossibilities.”

I build on impossibilities—but I need you to see it first*. Let it become so real that it becomes your reality. This isn’t walking in deception. It’s like Abraham believing he was the father of many nations despite having no physical evidence.

We are in times where trials, rejections, pain, and failure try to limit our sight. I’ve been there too. But today, together, let’s acknowledge God’s word and say:

“Lord, I see You. I see the miracles You will give me. I see the victories that can be won. I see the rest You have given.”

That’s how we give hope more life.

Run with it

When a word of prophecy is released, as children of Abraham, we are called to run with it, work with it, and faith it until we see it come to pass.

Many times, people say, “Someone gave me a prophetic word that I would do this or that.” But they fail to realize that just because a prophetic word is spoken does not make it automatic. Every word from God must be warred out in prayer, obedience, and faith.

God’s Word says,

 “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.”

 Habakkuk 2:2 (NKJV)

God gives visions to keep us from growing weary. He gives visions to keep us stable and focused. He gives visions so that we can carry a mental picture of what He intends to do. When we see it—when we hear the word of prophecy—He expects us to act on it, to nurture it, and to, by faith, make it our reality.

Vision gives divine strategy for the seasons ahead. It helps us navigate new paths and prepares our hearts for what is to come.

Vision is a revelation from God. It brings guidance and clarity. Whenever a word has left the mouth of God, the person who holds on to it in prayer, obedience, and work is the one who sees it fulfilled.

Habakkuk says, “Run with it.”

Run with what God has said! And whenever you meet a wall, go back to God and say, “Lord, Your word cannot return to You void. Show me the way.”

If He says jump, it is a strategy.

If He says run, it is a strategy.

If He says wait, that too is a strategy.

The dream Joseph interpreted was not just a revelation—it was a warning and a strategy to prepare for what was to come.

Friend, has God given you a word, a phrase, or even a sentence for this season?

Then take it to heart. The strategy for this season is simple:

Run with it. Build on it. Faith it—until it comes to pass.

The people of His Life

When God's word said Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, it is a solemn reminder that when we choose to come to God, we were once dead, but because we chose the Way, we received His life.  

Each day, we are faced with a choice—or the choice. Sin is at our door, but what is your response to it? Our response to the knock on the door determines if we choose life that day.

John 14:6 (KJV)

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

As a trained linguist, as I look deep into the noun phrase "the way, the truth, and the life," I came to realize that Christ wasn't just giving a speech, but beyond that, He is giving a descriptive introduction of who He is—His entirety, His office, His mark upon us, and everything He represents to us.

Constantly through the Bible, the Holy Spirit inspired the writers to introduce God and His kingdom to man. When we study this, we come to the knowledge—and continually walk in the knowledge—that Christ is "The Everything."

We walk each day consciously knowing that we are not just living the kind of life we want. So when God says, “Talk to that person who said that thing that hurt you,” we forgive—not because we want to, but because we are the people of His Zoe—meaning life, eternal life, divine life, or the God-kind of life.

Our forgiveness, our repentance, our yes, our no, and every alignment isn't tied to the world’s definition or standard, but we live by the standard which Heaven prescribes and await the moment our works will be tested by fire.

Today, choose to say this: "I am a person of His Life."

It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me and through me.

Imitate me Ephesians 5:1

In a time when people create images of themselves—whether or not it truly reflects who they are, or simply to mimic the trend of the moment—how do we cope? The enemy has set strategies to prevent people from knowing their true identity and from coming into the full knowledge of who they are in Christ.

It is very easy in these times to lose our essence when we follow trends without setting Godly and relevant standards to resist the devil. Without this, we risk losing our place and essence.

But Apostle Paul, in 1 Corinthians 4:16, declared: “Imitate me.” Paul foresaw what was to come. He saw how the followers of Christ would be treated as fools, old school, and despised. Yet he said, “I do not write these things to shame you, but to warn you.”

Friends, we are living in a season where the enemy is fighting tooth and nail to strip God’s people of their essence, to push them from their place, and to make them wanderers upon the earth. Yet Paul’s instruction remains: “Imitate me.”

In this time, we must cry out for the Holy Spirit to quicken our perception, breathe upon our minds, and cause us to be super-sensitive to the times and seasons. Without Him, we lose our essence and our position in the Kingdom. The Scripture commands us: “Be imitators of God.”

Friends, the gospel of Christ is not old-fashioned. It is eternal. It speaks to the past, the present, the future, and the hereafter. There is no better person to imitate than God Himself.

The Lord once said to Job in Job 38:1–3:

“Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:
‘Who is this who darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
Now prepare yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer Me.’”

This word reminds us not to despise the Scriptures as though they are outdated. God asks, “Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?” Much of what the world calls wisdom today is nothing but dark counsel that leads astray.

So, when God asks you today: “Who are you imitating?”—what will your response be?

There is none as timeless as God. He is both ancient and ever-present, both eternal and relevant. There is no better model to imitate than the Lord Jesus Christ himself. He saw the past, the present, and the future, and yet He chose to walk in obedience.

Friends, the time has come for us to be Christians not just by words, but by action. Let us live as imitators of God, holding firmly to our essence in Him.
