EYES

Proverbs 30:12 “There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness. Proverbs 21:2 “Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.”

Psalms 36:2 “(To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD.) The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. 2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. (Proverbs 12:15) “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise. (Proverbs 16:2) “All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the LORD weigheth the spirits. (Isaiah 5:21) “Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! “

Deuteronomy 12:7-8 “...ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein the LORD thy God hath blessed thee. 8 Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.

Then came the day of the Lord. Jesus appeared upon the scene and opened the eyes of the blind; figuratively and latterly. Following the law had drastically failed to turn human kind from their old blind worship methods. Some even transgressed and lowered themselves to the worship of foreign gods and their idols. Jesus descended from heaven through a virgin birth; the only begotten Son of God. He made a final sacrifice that all eyes could look upon and turn from their wicked ways, pray and be converted. He became the building block and alignment stone upon which even the gentiles (us) could focus our eyes and mind.

Mark 12:10-11 10 “And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner: This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

We are given statement proof of Jesus in the flesh by St. John who also delieniated Jesus’ spiritual existance as God Almighty; Christ our Lord. John1: 1 “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) Jesus told his desciples that they were blessed to be in a position to expierence the things John wrote and to witness the miracles and teachings of Jesus.

Luke 10:23 “And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

John 4:35 “Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.”

Paul is one example of the obedience to this commandment of Jesus our Lord.

Acts 28:27 “For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.” Apostle Mark also noted:

Mark:8 18 “Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? “

We must obey and do the works God has set before us if we are to inherit the riches promised to us. We are to deal diligently with the merchandise He offers.

Revelation 3:18 “I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.”

The great reward is eternal life in heaven. Peace of mind forever. Pure love abounding.

Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” Know God, know peace. Amen 02-23-2020 BLL
