SEEING WITH THE EYES OF YOUR HEART 12/16/07
~ Where 2 Worlds Meet ~
I have been tasting a new kind of vision and the Lord
continues to give me so many immediate confirmations
that I am convinced it is another way to “see” visions.
Other kinds of visions that I see are as a picture flash
behind the screen of the eye where I literally see a
picture pop up without pre-thought at all, it just
suddenly appears. (I call them PIX:) Another is a
tangible movie (moving) vision that is seen in the same
unexpected way. (I called them VISION:) But this new
vision is rather an inner vision that is seeing with the
eyes of my heart in my inspired thoughts, kind of like
inspired day dreams. I rarely if ever put them
into my rhema for public, but I do receive them and see
God's hand interact them with His still small voice,
real PIX and real VISIONS. I have tried very hard to
keep my ear and eye gates pure and not contaminated with
self (and the world), and only recording what I know has
come TO me as an unexpected gift and not THROUGH me,
which can be connected with my soul. There is a
distinction and I have spent years discerning the
difference.
I have heard others describe similar experiences but no
one has really backed it with scripture that I have
noticed. I have asked the Lord for scripture to back it
up and He finally gave it to me tonight. When in prayer
and asking Him about a recent experience, I
HEARD: The eyes of your heart.
Eph 1:17-21 AMP
[For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus
Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a
spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into
mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate]
knowledge of Him, By having the eyes of your heart
flooded with light, so that you can know and
understand the hope to which He has called you, and how
rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His
set-apart ones), And [so that you can know and
understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and
surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who
believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty
strength, Which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him
from the dead and seated Him at His [own] right hand in
the heavenly [places], Far above all rule and authority
and power and dominion and every name that is named
[above every title that can be conferred], not only in
this age and in this world, but also in the age and the
world which are to come.
Eph 1:17-18 NKJV
...the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit
of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the
eyes of your understanding being enlightened;
WHAT OTHERS SAY
Bob Jones said that when we give our heart, soul, and
emotions to the Lord to consecrate, that He will use
them as expressions of His Word. I have understood this
and experienced this many times, through tangibly
feeling the heart and Words of the Lord when hearing and
expressing them. I have also heard Bob say that the
Lord will rain on our brains and give us inspired
creative thinking. In my understanding, I just never
put it all together before along with seeing on the
inner screen of my thoughts.
I heard one teacher try to explain similar kinds of
visions as though they are like inspired day dreams. I
have not really liked the term day dreaming, because in
those cases one can create them and make them go where
they want the dreams to go. But the way one “sees” a
normal day dream, is very similar, on the inside of
their thoughts and not with their literal eyes or behind
the screen of their eyes. I have heard another call
this visualization. I am not impressed with that word
either, but that word does describe the act of seeing
our thoughts as moving pictures on the screen in the
mind. I believe there IS a difference.
THE PROCESS OF “SEEING” IN OUR THOUGHTS
Seeing with the eyes of your heart, is the kind of
vision that is inspired thoughts that are seen like day
dreams, but they are being guided by the Spirit of the
Lord. He is the One inspiring them to go in the
direction they take and you can tell by the way they are
being led that it IS the Holy Spirit and not you.
When the Lord gave me this scripture, I could clearly
see that it describes the process of seeing with the
eyes of your heart and that is how you can tell it is
the Lord’s vision and not just day dreaming.
Eph 1:17-21 AMP
[For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus
Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a
spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into
mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate]
knowledge of Him, By having the eyes of your heart
flooded with light, so that you can know and
understand the hope to which He has called you, and
how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His
set-apart ones), And [so that you can know and
understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and
surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who
believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty
strength, Which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him
from the dead and seated Him at His [own] right hand in
the heavenly [places], Far above all rule and authority
and power and dominion and every name that is named
[above every title that can be conferred], not only in
this age and in this world, but also in the age and the
world which are to come.
God imparts wisdom and revelation and insight into
what you did not previously know about what you are
visualizing with the eyes of your heart.
Information that was held back from you is suddenly
disclosed and your heart is flooded with His light as He
highlights something of importance upon what you are
picturing in the inner eye of your heart. He is giving
you knowledge and understanding and guiding your moving
story that you are thinking about. There is a level of
participation in and with the Holy Spirit as we are
yielding our senses to Him. We can feel the emotions of
His heart, be led by the direction the inspired thoughts
are going, and then also see them on the screens of our
hearts as they are advancing. We become convinced it is
the Lord when there is the element of quickened
surprise, where He puts His spotlight upon a thought and
He reveals something we did not know or had not
previously thought about. In the process, there is a
knowing in our own hearts that something that was just
imparted to our thoughts that was not planned or
expected.
Perhaps another way of labeling this is having the Mind
of Christ. I have continued to ask for the mind of
Christ since my youth.
1 Cor 2:13-16 NKJV
These things we also speak, not in words which man's
wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches,
comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the
natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of
God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know
them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he who
is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is
rightly judged by no one. For "who has known the mind
of the LORD that he may instruct Him?" But we have the
mind of Christ .
TWO WORLDS OF THE NATURAL AND SPIRITUAL MEET
I turned with anointed hands in my 2004 rhema. On
10/12/04 I heard the Lord say the following:
HEARD: Come hither My bride. See
here where the two worlds meet. Natural and spiritual.
There may come a time when those roads are difficult to
separate. But for now it does not matter.
Abba set her free. Come to ME. It’s My way, the holy
way.
I am living in that time now where my daily walk is
filled with the Word of God as He is opening my eyes and
ears to see how the natural and the spiritual are
weaving in and out to tell His Word with confirmation
and understanding. My consecrated soul is a part of the
experience. When I dont walk in this daily merging of
the natural and spiritual, I start pressing into Him
because I KNOW it is there as daily manna for me to live
in. Each and every day He is giving me the
confirmations I need to be affirmed in this walk. The
more I live this, the more I cant live with out this
walk of abiding in Him. It is Jesus living inside my
natural life!
Ps 34:10 NKJV
The young lions lack and suffer hunger; But those who
seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
Col 1:27 NKJV
To them God willed to make known what are the riches
of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which
is Christ in you, the hope of glory . |
