The Bible ​in Depth

These studies are meant to direct you to a deeper look into the Scriptures. Open your Bible to the Scriptures I have written out for you and look at the context in which they were written. If other Scriptures are suggested that pertain to the same subject, look them up as well, as these Scriptures will give you a larger picture about the different subjects I have highlighted for you. Remember, the Word is God and God is His Word.

​Study Twenty-Two
 
The Eye of Faith
 
 
​While we do not look at the things that are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things that are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal (2 Corinthians 4:18).
 
When I was a baby Christian, the Lord encouraged me to take a trip in the spirit realm. I wanted to know how to get into the Spirit, so He took me to the spiritual world to teach me. It’s really very simple. All I have to do is want to go there and imagine I am there, and then—I am there. On that first trip I sat on His lap, and we chatted for a long time. Then He said I could visit the throne room any time I wanted.
 
At first, I was in that throne room day and night, looking around, investigating where I would be living for eternity! Then the natural world pulled on me to attend to things there, and slowly my trips to heaven were taking a back seat to what needed to be done on this earth. But by this time, I had learned the spiritual world cannot be seen with the human eye. However, I can see eternal things in my spirit right here on earth.
 
Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth (Colossians 3:2).
 
That’s the answer. No matter what you are doing on the earth: washing dishes, mowing the lawn, it doesn’t matter, just set your mind on heaven, on His throne room and while you continue with that lawn mower or the dishwasher, you can also be conversing with God.
 
For we walk by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7).
 
As valuable as our physical eyes are to our life here on earth, what we see by faith is what creates this physical world. That’s far more interesting than always encountering things you already know or own.
 
22 The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light in you is darkness, how great is that darkness (Matthew 6:22, 23).
 
I don’t need to comment on Matthew. Whatever your father or mother admonished you with, if you’ll obey what they said, you’ll be full of light. You know what to look at and what not to look at.
 
20 My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. 21 Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart (Proverbs 4:20, 21).
 
How can we keep His words before our eyes? Read His Word. Don’t let a day go by that you don’t live and breathe His Word. Imagine yourself in that word. Replace one of the biblical characters with yourself and see what lessons you learn. The Word is our handbook, our dictionary, our encyclopedia, our lessons. Everything you ever needed to know is in there; don’t let it run away. Apply it to your life!
 
105 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
130 The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple (Psalm 119:105, 130).

    ​​​Writing has been in my blood, so to speak, but when I surrendered my life to Jesus Christ and He told me to write, all my trepidations rolled away and I began in earnest! After all, if God Almighty says it was His idea that I be a writer, who am I to stand in His way? My hope is that you not only like what I write, but that your life is moved by it, and that your party to Jesus and with Jesus turns your life into days of Heaven on Earth.
