Hi dear friends ๐
I am your host, Bible blogger ๐
Greetings to you.
Strange prayer
I have selected a strange prayer for today’s discussion. You will wonder what kind of request it is? You will want to know how the Lord will open eyes of someone whose eyes are already open.
Different vision
Agreed. I know our eyes are open and we can see everything that is in our vision range. But there are some things which are beyond our vision range and for that we either need binoculars to view the distant objects or microscope to view the tiny little objects.
Supernatural
There are supernatural events which are invisible to human eyes and perception. To view the supernatural we need supernatural vision.
Illustration
Let me illustrate by referring your attention to an event documented in the scripture.
2 Kings 6:17 NASBS
Then Elisha prayed and said, “O LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” And the LORD opened the servant’s eyes and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
A plot
The king of Aram wanted to arrest Elisha the prophet and he sent his mighty army for this purpose. The servant of Elisha was terrified and expressed his concern to Elisha.
2 Kings 6:16 NASBS
So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
No worries
Elisha wasn’t worried because he had the supernatural vision. He prayed for the supernatural vision for his servant. The moment his servant was equipped with this new vision he was astonished. He saw mountain full of horses and chariots of fire all around.
Foiled plot
The king’s plan was spoiled by God. He stroke them with blindness and confusion.
Psalm 119:18 NASBS
Open my eyes, that I may behold Wonderful things from Your law.
Introspection
What is your prayer to the Lord today morning? Are you worried and concerned about the problems surrounding you and your family? Pray to God to open your eyes. And you will see wonderful things.
Psalm 121:1 NASBS
I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; From where shall my help come?
Lift up eyes
So lift up your eyes and you will be able to figure out great things from the scripture and also you will know from where your help is going to arrive.
May God strengthen you today with these words. May God grant all of us the supernatural vision to see great things.
Thanks for visiting and reading.

This is great! It made me think of the scripture, โwithout vision the people perishโ.

Amen, “open my eyes that I may behold wondrous things from Your law.” Yes, Lord. Our entire perspective changes as the Lord allows us to see beyond the natal and behold the supernatural. Very good post, thank you.
