Text: Psalm 119 vs 18
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
Seeing and looking are not the same. Looking involves turning your face to a particular direction while seeing means to pay attention, notice or become aware of (someone or something) by using your eyes.
Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the gospel (good news) of Jesus Christ. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God. 2 Corinthians 4:4. This is why the word of God does not make sense to sinners when they read it. The more they look, the less they see. It takes the power of the Holy Spirit to remove the veil or covering that makes seeing impossible.
“Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law,” was the prayer of the Psalmist in today’s text- Psalm 119:18. The word of God contains deep treasures that usually not found on the surface but by the revelation of the Holy Spirit.
Read and meditate on the word of God with an open heart and ask the Holy Spirit to illuminate your heart and give you your own personal revelation of His wondrous word.
Prayer Nugget: Holy Spirit of the Living God, please, open my eyes to behold wondrous things in your Word in Jesus name.
