In large part, we are spiritual beings. Our relationship with God is a spiritual relationship. In fact, the Father is seeking those who will worship Him in spirit and in truth. Any meaningful relationship with our Heavenly Father and with others that we love, requires that we learn to live in and understand spiritual realities.

Even if we are unaware, we have been given spiritual eyes and spiritual ears to see and hear Jesus. He tells us that His sheep know His voice. This is a spiritual hearing. And, we are to look to Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith. This is a spiritual seeing.

Much that binds our minds and thoughts, assails our health and relationships, and wounds our hearts, is spiritual. Our enemy is not flesh and blood. In our own life and the lives of those we love, there is a spiritual enemy attacking from a spiritual realm. We form beliefs and make decisions based upon facts we see with physical eyes or hear with our physical ears. But, there is a truth above the facts. Reality is what God sees, not what we see. He sees the whole picture and desires to share that with us.

As we desire healing, desire to see what God sees. He will illuminate His written Word. He will speak to our heart with His "still small voice" and illuminate hurts which He wants to touch. Often God will show us a foothold, or legal basis, that the demonic has gained in our life. Perhaps we need to forgive; or, repent for holding on to hurts or sins. Our experience is that as God reveals, He heals.
