Thought For Today

Open Your Eyes


Listen Later

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 3rd of July, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 (Amplified Version): 

“…but just as it is written [in Scripture], “
Things which the eye has not seen and the ear has not heard, 
And which have not entered the heart of man, 
All that God has prepared for those who love Him [who hold Him in affectionate reverence, who obey Him, and who gratefully recognise the benefits that He has bestowed].”
For God has unveiled them and revealed them to us through the [Holy] Spirit;…” 

Oh folks. We need to open our eyes. We need to get out of that little matchbox mentality and we need to realise Who it is that you and I are serving! 

I have just had the privilege of seeing one of the wonders of the world. Yes, I’m talking about the Victoria Falls, where millions of tons of water are going over the edge of a depression in the ground. You see, in order to have a waterfall, you’ve got to have a mountain so the waterfall can caress down the mountain, but this is not the case with the Victoria Falls. If you’ve never been here, it is flat. There are no mountains here at all, so what has happened? Well, from a distance, you see a cloud in the sky. You think it’s a cloud but it’s not a cloud, it’s just the mist from this incredible waterfall cascading into the depths of a literal cavity in the ground. Now, as a little boy coming from Central Africa, I’ve seen it many times, but you see the Lord talks about the Spirit of God that opens our spiritual eyes to see it in a different context. Oh folks. How can you believe that this happened by coincidence? No, this is the handwork of a mighty God!

Now, what is it in your life today that you feel is too big for your God to handle? There is nothing too hard for God. That’s what the Lord said to Sarah when she was close to a hundred years old and He said, ”You’re going to have a baby.” I mean, it’s impossible, but for God nothing is impossible. 

I want to tell you, I stood on the edge of that Victoria Falls. I got absolutely soaked by rain, but the rain wasn’t coming from the clouds. There were no clouds. It was coming from the mist that this incredible waterfall was making. Today, open your spiritual eyes and see what God has in store for you, and it will lift you. It will build your faith and you’ll start to believe for the impossible.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day, 
Goodbye.
