Be wise-don’t overdose yourself on information and knowledge that does not infuse you with God’s life and power. What I am saying is this: Know what is good for the wholeness of your body and mind. I am not asking you to become an ignoramus or to live in a cave. Such information may even be necessary for the industry that you are in. It is all right to keep yourself abreast of current world events and be in the know about what is happening in the Middle East, trends in the economy and developments in the political arena. There is just no nourishment for us there. If we are only feeding on the news media, magazines, or the unending stream of information on the Internet, it is no wonder that we feel weak and tired. The more we hear and see Jesus, the healthier and stronger we become! Our mortal bodies become infused with His resurrection life and power! The Bible shows us that there is a direct correlation between hearing and seeing Jesus, and the health of our physical bodies.

The result of tuning our ear- and eye-gates to Jesus is that He will be life and health to us.
#Eye for an eye bible verse full#
It is all about beholding Jesus, and as we behold Him, we are transformed more and more into His likeness, full of unmerited favor and truth! Don’t miss this powerful promise, my friend. John 1:14 says, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” That’s what “give attention to my words” means today in the new covenant, for Jesus is God’s Word made flesh. He wants us to have our ears full of the gracious words of Jesus, our eyes full of the presence of Jesus and our hearts meditating on what we have heard and seen in Jesus. God tells us to guard what we hear, what we see, and what is in our hearts. Do not let them depart from your eyes keep them in the midst of your heart for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh.” The Book of Proverbs, which is chock-full of God’s wisdom, tells us, “My son, give attention to my words incline your ear to my sayings. Essentially, this means that we need to be conscious of what we watch and hear on a regular basis.


I always encourage my church to be mindful of their eye- and ear-gates.
