SCRIPTURE READING: LUKE 1: 5-25, 57-66
FOCUS: “18. And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years. 19. And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God…” (Luke 1: 18-19)
MEMORY VERSE: “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” (Hebrews 11: 6)
In our Focal Scripture, Zachariah asked the Angel of the Lord how the promise of the birth of a son would ever happen given that he was old and his wife well stricken in years. The Angel of the Lord assured Zachariah that he was Gabriel that stands in the presence of God. Zachariah spoke from the standpoint of his situation; the Angel spoke from the standpoint of who God is. Zachariah saw through the binoculars of his situation; the Angel saw through the binoculars of the greatness of God.
Friend, no matter how compelled you feel about your situation, never see the future through the binoculars of what you are going through at the moment. Do not view your tomorrow through the eyes of that negative medical report. Do not view your future through the binoculars of what is going wrong in the economy. Do not see your future through the eyes of what the enemy has thrown at you. Do not see tomorrow through the eyes of yesterday. Don’t let situations determine how you see.
Like Angel Gabriel, see through the greatness of God. See the possibilities ahead of you through the binoculars of the wonders of El Roi. See the future through the eyes of a God who is able to do exceedingly abundantly, above what you ask or think. See the future through the eyes of what God is able to do. See the future through the eyes of faith in God’s ability to fulfill His word. See your results through the eyes of El Roi.
If God says it is possible, then it truly is possible irrespective of what the protocols of men say about it. If God says He will make it happen for you, then get set to receive it and forget the opinions of those who believe that it is impossible. If God says you will get there, then be rest assured that you truly will get there even if there is no way to get there. If God says He has made a way, then wait for it, it will surely manifest before your very eyes.
Don’t allow the situations that your eyes can see, to make you think less of what God can make happen. If God says it, it will come to pass if you believe.
