Have you ever seen the invisible?
"What do you mean?"
I mean exactly what I asked; Have you seen the invisible?
"How can I see something or someone who is invisible? Doesn't 'invisible' mean that it cannot be seen?"
Yes, it means that it cannot be seen with our natural eyes, but it doesn't mean that it cannot be seen with our 'unnatural' eyes.
Let me explain. We have natural eyes that see the natural world around us. We see colors, shapes, etc. If you're physically blind, you cannot see. The Bible tells us of several people whom Jesus healed of physical blindness.
However, the sight or blindness I am talking about here, is the spiritual blindness. Jesus reprimanded the pharisees for their spiritual blindness. They were not physically blind, but spiritually blind, and didn't even see it themselves.
"Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, "What? Are we blind too?" Jesus said, "If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains. (John 9:40-41). They believed they could see, but Jesus rebuked their being blind, just like the people in Revelations;
"You say, `I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.` But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked" (Rev 3:17). They thought they were ok, but they were not, they were blind.
Moses got a totally different testimony;
"By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible" (Heb 11:27). Moses saw him who is invisible! Moses saw into the realm of the unseen. And the same "seeing the invisible" is available to us. We just need to take our "spiritual glasses" on; we need to read God's Word and ask God to give us "sight".
When we see the invisible world, and see that it is more real than the seen world, that's when being a Christian becomes interesting.
I encourage you today to dig into the Word of God, become aquainted with the Invisible and begin seeing the invisible and The Invisible.
