I am calling you to see in the spirit. To see things as I see them. To see people as I see them. My kingdom is not made of bricks and mortar but of living stones for my focus is on raising up sons and daughters. To meaningfully serve and lead in my kingdom is to pour yourself out for others and see them raised into fullness in me.
To be about the business of my kingdom is to have your eyes and ears focused on heaven. See things as I see them and you will know what I am doing. When you know what I am doing you can partner with me.
Do not be concerned with any worldly measurement of success for yourself or for those around you. Learn to see people as I see them. Be attuned to my voice and obedient to my directing. Then you can share in my great joy!
Activation: Think about the situation you are in that involves other people. Ask the Lord to show you how he sees those people. Ask Him to direct your prayers for them. If the answering of those prayers involves your own obedience in a particular aspect, be obedient to His directing.
1 Peter 2:5 (NIV)
..you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
Philippians 2:17 (ESV)
Even if I am to be poured out as a drink offering upon the sacrificial offering of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.
1 Samuel 16:7 (NIV)
But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
