Today is day 6 of the 7 days of the Feast of Tabernacles, which is a reminder that God's glory is within us.
I once heard someone say that we can be sitting right next to someone but living in two different worlds. Not only that but two people can be in the exact same situation and respond in completely opposite ways. Last night I was reminded of this while reading Luke 17, where Jesus says that two people will be lying in a bed, one taken and the other left, two women grinding grain together, one taken and one left.
Then this morning I read 2 Kings 6 where Elisha is surrounded by a huge army and his servant is terrified. But, Elisha says "Don’t be afraid. Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
In science it has been shown that what we can see with our eyes is only one billionth of the spectrum that is out there. We can only see a very small percentage of what is really going on with our physical eyes. But, by faith we can choose to position ourselves in God's kingdom. The question becomes which world are you living in? There are two worlds going on all the time and God gives us the choice of which one we want to live in. We can live in the light or in darkness. Two people can be right next to each other but be in completely different worlds.
I am praying for you.
Daniel
