What Do You See?

Mark 11:24
24Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

A blind lady was led to a great healing evangelist for prayer. After he had prayed for her, he asked her, “Now, tell me what you see.” She opened her eyes, only to be told, “Close your eyes. Tell me what you see.” She tried opening her eyes again, only to be told, “I didn’t say to open your eyes. I asked you what you saw. Close your eyes! Now, tell me what you see.”

This went on for a while, until the lady realised that the evangelist was asking her what she saw on the inside. Did she see herself seeing? When she understood that, she said, “I see myself with sight.” Then, the evangelist told her, “Now, slowly open your eyes.” That moment, she opened her eyes to perfect vision!

When you prayed just now, what did you see inside you? Were you praying for someone’s healing but that person in a coffin? Were you praying for a financial breakthrough but the banks pursuing you till you are bankrupt?

Many people don’t get what they pray for — they get what they believe they receive when they pray, because Jesus said, “Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.”

“Whatever things” includes everything. And believing that you receive them comes before having them. Jesus once told a centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And the centurion’s servant was healed that same hour. (Matthew 8:13) The centurion saw his servant healed. He believed that he had received his miracle, even before it came to pass.

So when you pray, what do you really believe and see on the inside?

“Well, Pastor Prince, I really can’t see it.”

Then don’t pray yet. Change your vision on the inside first. Start seeing yourself with the answer. See yourself healed, see yourself staying in the house that you want, see yourself enjoying more than enough. Then pray, and you will have whatever you ask for!
