The bible insists people to walk by faith and not by sight [2 Corinthians 5:7] so, that their Christian life can be based on faith i.e. believing in Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
In the Bible there is a place written several times called Gilgal [Joshua 4:19 – 5:12], a place of practicing faith; Israelites having been able to see many mighty signs, wonders and miracles of God physically in the wilderness, then it reached a time and place where God wanted them to practice their faith in Him; that’s why it was noted that manna ceased at Gilgal which means there at Gilgal was a perfect place at a God's time for Israelites to walk by faith in Jesus for the land to produce food for them, to have clothes, to have shoes so that through the faith in Him they can be able to live the blessed life.
Even Elisha after Elijah was taken away from him to heaven and Elijah's mantle fall on him; it was at that specific time and place where he was then required to walk by faith in God of Elijah the one he used to see performing signs, miracles and wonders from those years he walked with Elijah in order for him to live. [2 kings 2; 2 Kings 4:38]
Also Jesus’s disciples after He ascended to heaven; it was at that specific time they were supposed to practice their faith in Him for them to live, and the day they reached a glorious tone the helper came [Holy Spirit] and they all prospered and experienced supernatural life on earth.
One time TB Joshua said when you run out of robe is the time to grab onto your faith which means there’s always the place and specific time to test your faith in God, because it simple and easy to say I love God and I depend on Him in good times and calls on His name JESUS all the time but when the trouble times come is where divergence come, and that's where you shall be known if you are genuine Christian or not; the question is, are we really believing God even in the time of our troubles? I mean are we really depend only on Him in those trouble times?, because it well known that when seen things we depend on run out some begin calling on their mothers’ names, some their fathers’ names; so in that perspective can we really say we call on the name of the Lord [JESUS] in all times [good times and trouble times]?
The sight cannot grant you life but faith can i.e. that belief in Jesus of Nazareth; this means by sight people see and do but by your faith you became the apple of God's eye for Him to see and do for you in this sense the later is most powerful than the first. It is so glorious in the Lord when you are blind and yet you see by your faith than when you depend on your own eyes and ears to live. This means Jesus redeemed us on the cross, one, for us to know that He is our creator and two, for the very specific purpose that’s why we are still in this world, if it was not for His specific purpose then His redemption on us was meant to take us away from this sinful world because of His love on us. The glory of the Lord Jesus in heaven is also because of the righteous works on earth, therefore it would have mean nothing if He saved us from this corrupt world to heaven. We are to be the light of this world, since the salvation power means the power to save; this then was granted to us on that time when Jesus Christ redeemed us, so as to save others from this world of evils i.e. that Life of God in us should be the Life of all.
It’s also known that anointing of God teaches us all things about Him [1 John 2:27], then if so this is for what? Is it for being rich only, prosperous, peaceful, with Honor, Wise, Blessed or to be powerful [Revelation 5:12]. Are those a core purpose of our salvation? no not at all but to tell others about Him that’s why our names are in His book of Life and this should be the main cause of our joyous celebration [Luke 10:17-20].
Then what do you think the core purpose of the anointing of God in us is? The core purpose of anointing of God is for the glory of God, and the other things as desired by man for sure will follow you in all days of your life as long as that anointing is in you but first write the vision down and then walk by faith and not by sight. Let His Kingdom and His righteousness be part and parcel of your life, Amen.
