Wake the faith up

 

Business Professor and economist Aaron Levenstein once said, “statistics are like bikinis. What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital.”

You know what is most important in life? Believe it or not… you can’t see it. 

 

 

What does it feel like to be deceived? 

It feels good, it feels right…it feels normal because you don’t know any better. But what does it feel like to find out you have been deceived…well now thats a whole new ball of wax. 

 

2 Cor. 4

18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

what if I told you that we can get deceived but we get deceived by what we see…. 

what do I mean? Well satan takes our eyes and fills them with pictures of the world… good or bad and distorts them. We see others with stuff, trophies, parties, money, accolades… and we get deceived thinking that this is what is life is about… but if we focus on what is unseen - that is the kingdom of Heaven, the kingdom of light… then we will never be deceived. 

 

So as verse 18 says… want to be deceived? focus on things that don’t last. 

What doesn’t last?

Youth, sex, parties, money, fame, popularity, business, mindsets, politics, my rights… 

But what is unseen? Heaven, God the father… oh in time we will see him, but here on earth we can only feel, taste and be filled with the unseen…

What’s the point?

Well if you really want a great life, if you really want a strong spiritual life- realize that what is most important, what is most true, what is most dependable and what is most necessary and fulfilling is what is invisible - what is unseen

Faith is unseen Heb.11:1

Again what is eternal is what is invisible - focus on the invisible and do not be deceived… what you can see is not what is important.
