SEE

“Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot SEE the Kingdom of God” – John 3:3

The Power to SEE is foremost among the spiritual senses, through which we operate in the spirit realm. These are similar to how the physical senses help us to function in the natural realm. This ability to SEE in the Spirit is part of the package of redemption. Many believers are yet to fully comprehend the total ramification of redemption – all the reasons and benefits of Christ’s death and resurrection. Redemption was accomplished to achieve more than deliverance from darkness and damnation, as important as these are. There is a lot more to what we have inherited by redemption: “And Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not SEE may SEE, and those who see may be made blind” (Jh.9:39). Jesus came that the sinner, who did not see while in the kingdom of darkness, would be able to see now in the Kingdom of Light.

Sight and vision are very significant in God’s Kingdom. God is Light and everything in His Kingdom – in heaven and on earth – is full of light. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Personification of Divine Light. John testified of Him, “That was the True Light which gives light to every man who comes into the world” (Jh.1:9). Jesus Himself declared, “I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the Light of Life” (Jh.8:12). Light makes all things visible (Jh.3:20-22). The devil hides in darkness but when the light of God shines, darkness is dispelled and everything becomes visible. We are then empowered to know and destroy the devices of the devil. However, the things of the spirit are invisible, yet they control that which we see in the physical. Therefore, the word ‘SEE’ in Scriptures often goes beyond physical seeing.

Jesus replied Nicodemus, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot SEE the Kingdom of God” (Jh.3:3). He said in verse 5: “he cannot enter the Kingdom of God.” It is the dimension of God’s Kingdom you SEE that you can ENTER. To see the Kingdom means to have the ability to look into the things of the spirit or to see through the realm of the spirit. Jesus’ death and resurrection brought back the Kingdom of God to humankind. This kingdom cannot be seen physically, but in the spirit. What you cannot see or perceive, you cannot enter or attain. The New Birth gives us the ability to see and grasp the essence of the Kingdom. Jesus chastised his disciples whenever they did not see with their spiritual eyes or understand spiritual realities: “Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?” (Mk.8:18a).

God empowers His children to comprehend truth in His divine light; to observe things which are unexplainable in the physical realm; to see with the eyes of faith; to set eyes on things as we would desire them to be fulfilled; to envision what God has said; to catch glimpses of heavenly insight; to be obedient to the heavenly vision; to perceive with full assurance and persuasion of faith the outcome of His promises through the eyes of the spirit. It was written of Abraham: “and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform” (Rom.4:21). One of the gifts available to the believer is the ability to see the invisible while here on earth; to see all that pertains in God's Kingdom to our lives and destinies. You must activate this ability in order to maximize your potential in the supernatural realm. It is vital to your Christian walk with God and to your manifestation as a son of God!
