The Spirit of Seeing and Knowing in the Light of the Glory of God!
To give the glory due his name... all of creation! The vision... to bring up a many people learning and growing, being healed and made whole, giving glory to God!
The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God.
Psalm 14:2
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
Matthew 6:33
For the Lord is (absolutely) righteous, He loves righteousness (virtue, morality, justice); The upright shall see his face.
Psalm 11:7
So... go after God to 'see and know'.
Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good, Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!
Psalm 34:8
Walking in the Spirit of Seeing and Knowing
This was the order of march of the sons of Israel by their armies as they moved out... then Moses’ father-in-law... “We are going to the place of which the Lord said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will be good to you, for the Lord has promised good [things] concerning Israel.” But Hobab [Moses’ brother-in-law] said to him, “I will not go; I will return to my own land and to my family.” Then Moses said, "Please do not leave us, for you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you will serve as eyes for us [as we make our trek through the desert]. So if you will go with us, it shall be that whatever good the Lord does for us, we will do the same for you.” So they set out from the mountain of the Lord (Sinai) three days’ journey; and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went in front of them during the three days’ journey to seek out a resting place for them. The cloud of the Lord was over them by day when they set out from the camp. Whenever the ark set out, Moses said, “Rise up, O Lord! Let Your enemies be scattered; And let those who hate You flee before You.” And when the ark rested, Moses said, “Return, O Lord, to the myriad (many) thousands of Israel.”
Numbers 10: 22-36
What's to see and know?
There was a pattern, a learning and an order in how it goes that came before the 'being able to serve as eyes for the people'.
There was belief in what the Lord had said... in what was promised, and a knowing that good things come from a good God.
There was a value given to and an acknowledgement to those who had walked there before.
There was encouragement, teaching and a drawing toward the unified blessing, a knowing that it is to be accomplished with many gifts.
Further, there was wisdom in the adherence to the known wisdom.
There further still, was a knowing that God was no respecter of persons, in that what good God wills to do for one God also wills to do for all people... to prosper them.
In doing so together, there was a spirit of 'seeing and knowing' that not only guided them as they went but carried with it a belief in the blessing to come!
The wilderness is ending. The rest is in the blessing.
Believe to see it and know!
...And his eyes see every precious thing.
Job 28: 10
...What is hidden he brings forth to light.
Job 28:11
...From where then does wisdom come? And where is the place of understanding? It's hidden from the eyes of all living and concealed from the birds of heaven.
Job 28: 20-21
So, seek Him as to seek out great treasure!
I rejoice at Your word as one who finds great treasure.
Psalm 119: 162
...but those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.
Psalm 34: 10
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
Matthew 6:33
Seeing and knowing in the light of God's glory!
The seeking. The believing. The receiving. The knowing.
However you are led towards God, become like this man that did not see though now that he received healing and he both sees and also knows...
"One thing (unified thought that has been brought to a unified vision)... I know that though I was blind, now I see."
John 9:25
Now we have received, not the Spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
1 Corinthians 2:12
For it is God who commanded light to shine out of darkness (from the beginning), who has shone in our hearts (in the receiving) to give the light (seeing and knowing) of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:6
Those who seek God will know Him!
...give to you the spirit of wisdom (practical principles) and revelation (clear perception to understand) in the knowledge of Him...the eyes of your understanding being enlightened that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints... and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe according to the working of His mighty power.
Ephesians 1:17-19
Blessed are the pure in heart. For they shall see God.
Matthew 4:8
The key to the spirit of seeing and knowing is in the light of God's glory!
