Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of the law. Psalms 119:18

For the Christian, there is nothing more pressing than seeing reality God's way. Seeing life God's way is not an option that we consider for our own benefit; but to the glory of God, even if we don't understand in the given moment.

God's perspective on life is the driving instinct of the Believer and will always stimulate affection for an unswerving love for the Word of God. Only Christians who acknowledge their life is Jesus Christ will fervently and faithfully abide as committed doers of the Word and cannot be displaced by another kind of usefulness.

A growing believer understands the importance of a biblical perception of God's will. They find themselves disciplined enough to strip themselves of all that their imagination avails them. We yield to the essential discipline of the Christian life of saying YES to the influence of the Holy Spirit. The alternative is very unfortunate. It is not unusual for Christians to habitat in darkness (a self-willed motive)... Yet, a Believer yielded to the Holy Spirit cares only to glorify God.  Daniel's consecration stood out distinctly like a towering mountain peak. Why is this? How did he ascend to these heights? What brought him so near to God? What made him so Christ-like? The answer is easy: Daniel believed God... he saw life as God demonstrated it.  Thus, he prayed much, he prayed strong. He asked, he sought, and he knocked and there was God. The Lord swayed Daniel's intellect, enriched his emotions and filled and enlarged his heart. And all this was so because Daniel was preeminently a man with an eternal vision.

Seeing reality God's way takes a tremendous amount of discipline. It is the sense of worth that we gain from doing so that compels us to a habit of obedience regardless of what we see or don't see with our naked eye. We perceive that there is one reality that changes not: The Word of God.
