Psalm 1:3 3 He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper.
When
darkness covered the face of the earth, God said, “Let there be light,”
and there was light. (Genesis 1:3) When a certain man paralyzed for 38
years lay helpless at the pool of Bethesda, Jesus said, “Rise, take up
your bed and walk,” and immediately, the man was healed, took up his bed
and walked. (John 5:8–9)
You
don’t say such words unless you see something others don’t. God does
not see the way man sees. Man, however, must see the way God sees. We
must see the vision of the Almighty.
The
prophet Balaam saw the vision of the Almighty when the Spirit of God
fell on him. As he looked down from a mountain at the camp of the
Israelites, he found himself saying, “How lovely are your tents, O
Jacob! Your dwellings, O Israel! Like valleys that stretch out, like
gardens by the riverside, like aloes planted by the Lord, like cedars
beside the waters.” (Numbers 24:5–6)
Balaam
would not have said this unless he saw Israel not in the natural, but
as God saw it. At that time, the Israelites were a discontented lot,
always murmuring and complaining in the wilderness. But when God looked
at them, He saw them like flourishing gardens planted by the rivers —
fruitful and prosperous.
Beloved,
God wants you to see yourself the way He sees you — “like a tree
planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its
season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall
prosper”. So see yourself like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
bringing forth fruit in your season. See yourself as one who will not
wither, whose health will not fail. See whatever you do prospering!
See the vision of the Almighty. That
vision is always a good vision. Whenever you see your situation through
God’s eyes, you will find that your situation will change because when
you see as He sees, you allow Him to work as the Almighty in your life!
