STELESCOPE

In a world where sensory inputs are rated as the peak of logical perception, it is quite out of place to try convincing an Einstein with loads of scientific formula upstairs that ‘we walk by faith and not by sight’ or “what you see in the eye of the spirit supersedes what you see in the physical”. This being on the count that he even accepts that life has a spiritual dimension.

That you haven’t seen a Mexican physically doesn’t negate the fact that Mexicans exist (ignore the banters of philosophy for now). Truth is, there is a spiritual dimension to life and that dimension controls every activity in the physical. Out of nothing a spiritual God created a physical world. Simple logic purports that if there is a spiritual dimension, then there are spiritual sensory organs.

On this note I ask you to bring out your stelescope (spiritual telescope).

Enter Elisha’s servant with reports about the Syrian army that had surrounded them, eyes about to drop, heartbeat rounding the corner of a cardiac seizure, flight/fight instinct searching for the surest escape route and all Elisha does is smile; Elisha even asks the dude to chill, for the Assyrian troupe that he sees hold nothing against the Heaven’s host that was with them. At this point, the servant must have been another guy who thought that Elisha was nuts.

What does Elisha do? He simply prays that his stelescope be decrypted – when this happened, dude chilled. He realized that the heavenly host that was with them could decimate the entire Syrian army with one swipe. That’s what made the difference in the situation; the enlightening of his stelescope. So, do you see with the physical eyes or with your stelescope?

God asked Abraham to look around him and any land that He SAW, would be given him and Abraham SAW the world. How do I know this? Cos God promised him the entire world after Abraham had looked round – go to Sunday school please. How is it possible that Abraham SAW the entire world with his physical eyes? Nope, his stelescope did the job. He was blessed with even the land that Lot his nephew saw as beautiful with his physical eyes.

It’s apt that we visualize our purposes, not by what the immediate environment offers our physical sensory organs, but by what our spiritual antenna pick up.

See with your stelescope and not with your occularis.
