"Eyes To See" Session 1 by Jamie Galloway

Wow welcome can you hear me alright welcome I'm so glad you're here we have an incredible few days ahead of us and I want to just jump right in I believe that God wants to open up your eyes to see and see like he sees the world around us heaven has a certain perspective and how many know that the way heaven sees something is the right way to see it and for many of us we live on the other side of what Jesus has provided for us we don't live on the side that that he says hey come I want to show you things that you haven't seen before I that that eyes have not seen ear has not heard nor has entered into the heart of man the things that God has prepared for us but it says in first Corinthians 2 that the Spirit of God searches things things out and tries attempts to reveal them to us by the Holy Spirit he's right now looking for the things that you and I may not know that are on the heart of God in the mind of God and he wants to reveal those things to us by his Spirit and we look what does scripture say it says we look in a mirror dimly we do see and for some of us we see maybe less than what war desire is to see but I want to encourage you right now God wants to raise the bar for you giving you eyes to see ears to hear and a heart of understanding and many of us we know that we can hear the voice of God it's been a it's been a a truth I believe an established truth in the body of Christ that we can hear individually the voice of God we no longer need someone to hear for us God can speak to us individually by his Spirit Jesus has provided us this grace and so we can all hear what it is that God wants to say to us why do we think that seeing is any differently we think that seeing belongs to special people gifted people weird people have normal people and we somehow think about C as sort of this thing only reserved for the spiritually elite if you weren't born with a birthmark on your forehead somewhere or some kind of special angel story and you know that saved you birth then maybe you're not called to C but just as we're all born with eyes that hopefully see that is the rule not the exception we are also born from above with eyes that can see from heavens perspective and so what is the difference between these two we hear the voice of God we hear them the thing that he is trying to tell us he speaks to us sometimes the scripture says plainly but other times he gives us dreams he gives us visions he illustrates his word to us and he's trying to share something that we may not comprehend in the moment but it takes time to unpack it takes time to unlock my goal is to help you unlock what it is that God is sharing with you now we are aware that God is speaking to us by his voice and he's telling us hey I want to speak to you I've got something to tell you and so we we come up with ideas like hearing the voice of God but I want to prepare you for something different there is a real reality to hearing the voice of God but we can also at the same time while hearing his voice missed the message we can actually miss the message because there's a message within the sound there's a message within what it is that he's trying to share with you when my wife says Jamie I need you to get in here she says your socks are on the floor she's not trying to tell me the location of my socks there's a story she's trying to communicate to me there's a message and if I go yeah I know I know that they're in there I'm gonna pay for it what if God is trying to get a message across to you each and every day and it doesn't always come with a moment where he he like turns the micron he said is this on is this are you listening I've got a I got a hate I just want I want to capture your attention in fact God if you look at scripture he doesn't always speak in first person he speaks often in third person he comes to Moses and he says the Lord the Lord God merciful and gracious he's speaking about himself in third person and so he often speaks in a mystery he speaks as if it's him but yet is it him is that something else and we miss what it is that he's trying to share with us because we're looking for something that's so plain and simple but God he's drawing us into mystery how many know that God's not the author of confusion it's not of God of confusion however he is a God of mystery and a God of secrets and I have in my heart made an attempt to discover the spiritual secrets that God has for each and every one of us at least for me because I want to know the secret things says the secret things that Deuteronomy 29:29 belong to the Lord they belong to God but the things that are revealed belong to us into our generations God has revelation for us and he doesn't just get it to us one way he gets that message to us revelation in multiple ways whether it's hearing seeing understanding visions dreams visitations he has different ways because God is original he doesn't always do it in a way that we're familiar with because God is not a familiar spirit and in order to understand who God is we have to get outside of our norms he was here way before we're here he's not trying to keep up with the trends he's a way ahead of everybody else God has been always he is and he always will be and so we have to learn to adapt to his ways he doesn't adapt to our ways how many know that God's first language is not English God doesn't always speak in a language that we are familiar with he doesn't always share things with us that we think that's the way God is if I was God I would come with sort of you know an announcement hey I'm God and I want you to know this and therefore that it ended up but God hides himself hidden in plain sight he's not a God that is attempting to get everybody's attention but he's looking for those that have eyes to see do you have eyes to see the truth is that each and every one of us have eyes to see but we may not know what we're looking for if I asked you what are you looking at would you be able to tell me God asked this question over and over for those that walk with Him whether it's Oh Kevin Anu come they walk with him and he would say what do you see it was a question that they knew he knew the answer God was not looking for answers he was looking for a discovery and do you know how to discover God do you know how to discover are you curious can you see what's often hidden in plain sight Moses is a great example of this Moses he's walking in the desert for multiple decades he's off on his own tending his father-in-law's flock and every day he's passing by this anomaly it's the burning bush you might have seen it but he didn't see it he didn't recognize it at the time for us in hindsight it makes so much sense but for him it was just another day in the desert it's not a weird thing to see something burning in the the desert this is a hot arid climate where things catch fire and he's walking past this thing every day and he notices after a while this thing has been burning for some time I must turn aside to see why it is not being consumed what if there are moments in your life that God has put in in your in your day in your present moment that he's put in your day that look absolutely ordinary but if you look closer there's something extraordinary happening he's postured you with eyes to see what is often hidden in plain sight he's given you an ability Moses he says I must now turn to the Lord or turn to this thing and see what it is that is causing this to happen it's in this moment that Moses has the visitation that opens for us the rest of the story of the Israelites and their exodus out of Egypt the freedom from the bondage which ultimately led to this incredible story that we now have today in Jesus what if there are moments in your life signature moments that God is trying to get into your eyelids he wants to he wants you to see those moments he wants you to be before those moments and if you seize those moments you could turn it into momentum he's put you in front of signature moments trusting you that you're gonna have eyes to see and rise to the occasion you're gonna meet him there but we think that God when he speaks he makes it so simple angels show up they always announced themselves like hey by the way I'm the angel you know that you've been looking for and I'm right here but the scripture tells us something very different Hebrews 13 it tells us this that of us entertain angels unaware we don't even realize we might actually be meeting with angels on a daily regular basis entertaining angelic beings heavenly visitors that come into our space not with wings not with a halo but entertaining angels unaware they look like you and I sometimes they're there hidden in plain sight do you have eyes to see this is the invitation I want to give to each and every one of you and why we're here right now because God wants to give you eyes to see in fact he's already given you eyes to see but do you know what you're looking for I want to draw your attention to a moment in Scripture there's a moment in 1st Samuel 9 where Saul is anointed as king he's anointed and appointed the anointing on your life is to appoint you to something it's for a purpose it's power for a purpose and God has given you an anointing but do you know what you're looking for he anoints him he pours out oil on him and for Samuel 8 and as he's anointing on me kiss him and he said is it not because the Lord has made you commander over his inheritance he anoints of and he prepares him for a visitation saul was ready says in 1st samuel 8 that samuel the seer even recognized that samuel the seer he even recognized that he was the desire of all israel like israel literally desired for saul to become king there was something unique he had an x-factor about him have you ever seen one someone with a sort of a tangible charisma this was Saul he had a VAT Angie invisible reality that attracted people to him not saying that he was a great leader not saying that was a great king but he had something of the kiss of God on his life Samuel notices this and even kisses him himself and so he's he's he's consecrated with a kiss and he's let go to do what it is that God has called him to do and Saul was chosen to be king he's anointed first samuel 99 I want you to go there it says this formerly in Israel when a man went to inquire of God he spoke thus come let us go to the seer for he who is now called a prophet was formerly called a seer when we think of prophets we think of gifted people highly gifted people we think of people who are able to tell us the future they're able to share with us the hidden things the secret things before someone was called a prophet they were called a seer and in that day whenever you would visit the seer you would bring bread you would bring something of a meal as an offering and you would break bread with the seer and they would say come let us go to the Sears house and Saul is out looking for this seer he's he's told he actually is there by an accident looking for some donkeys and as the people of the village come out to him and say well I know you're looking for these things but the real reason why you're here the real reason is you're here to see the seer that sounds very mystical doesn't it sounds kind of out there kind of weird right but you have to put yourself in the environment in the situation everyone knew that there was a special person in their community and he had the ability to tell you the things that were in your heart he had eyes to see the hidden things and while Sol's you know looking for the donkey's he also gets intrigued and he goes well I want to see this seer as well and as he's looking for the serious someone he says do you know where the seer lives and Samuel says I am he because Samuel knew he was looking God was looking for saw God saw saw he saw that he was ready there was something on him in that time and Saul is anointed to be king this word seer it means to see it means the gaze it means to look at SEC Acrisius 4:18 tells us this we do not look at the things which are visible but the things which are invisible for the things which are visible are temporary but the things which are invisible are eternal what if God has given you eyes to see eternal things invisible things when I was a kid I played this game maybe you remember this game made you look we'd sit for hours in the car you know talking to one another you know pestering each other my parents driving them crazy and I'd say look at that over there and then made you look hey check out that tree look at that cow made you look and it was the hours of made you look made you look made you look we felt powerful we felt like we had power over other persons eyeballs right made you look I want to make you look I want to make you look at the invisible realities that God is setting up in your life each and every day and I want to give you a different perspective on things that you might be passing by that are actually supernatural realities happening and they're they're wrapped in ordinary moments ordinary moments we may not realize that God is trying to get a message to us in the midst of ordinary moments each and every day but when you have eyes to see you look at the invisible thing that's going on that's hidden in plain sight Adam is an example of this he's the first to name all creation actually only a certain portion of creation that's just a myth that he named all creation he actually only named a certain portion of the creatures that got created and it says that Adam God brought the animal sat on the certain set of animals the ones with the four-footed animals and all and different different creatures of the earth he brought them to Adam to see them Adam needed to look at them he needed to see these animals but then we have a moment where later Adam and Eve their eyes it says their eyes were opened how did they look if their eyes were closed they they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil some say he was an apple I've never been tempted by an apple I've never been tempted by an apple but there they eat from this tree and it says and then their eyes were opened and when their eyes were open they they got to see that they were naked and they were naked the whole time and they didn't even know it this is like we're naked eye can see Eve going how did you not you didn't even tell me you know like he knew something they were naked and didn't even know it but it says something very interesting that their eyes were opened their eyes were opened I believe that what we call eyes open might be in darkened and darkened because when they open their eyes to one reality their eyes were shut to a different reality Adam saw the animals and he was able to name them in fact Avenue walk with God in the garden they saw God face to face they had intimate relationship communion with God they spoke to God what a beautiful beautiful moment they're talking to God having fellowship having a relationship with the Trinity and something's going on in them there there's just this beautiful thing going on and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil has put there right in the middle of the garden it was pleasant it says to the eyes the eyes what if the biggest thing the enemy uses to get you distracted from God's purpose and plan are your eyes it was pleasant to the eyes how powerful are your eyes they were the very thing that actually caused Adam and Eve to fall from this state of grace this state of glory this constant flow of God's intimacy he was in love with that there was a love connection but their eyes are drawn off of the glory of God and on to something else it was seducing his attractive and there's something very interesting about this because for me it's the it's the moment that that something captures their attention that that it was almost like they were compelled to look they were compelled to look have you ever walked in downtown Manhattan at night you're seeing the lights all over the place or you may be somewhere else you know and and Tokyo you know your lights are all over and and and there's images being displayed you know it's the new cologne the new perfume it's this is that and everything is all around you it's the day and age we're living in where your eyes are literally like distracted by everything there's so many lights so many things we'll look at what are you going to choose to set your eyes on stuff is trying to constantly grab your attention and we're trusted with these set of eyes because there's a place in us that when we look at things with the glory of God we actually cause things to come to life the original way that they were called to be seeing is something that we think is sort of passive it's something that happens to us we sit in a movie theater we watch the movie that was a good movie you know and we're kind of late they're glazed over watching this whole event take place it's two hours I mean movies are so outrageous now and you in order to really capture the attention of this generation has to be something so brilliant flashing lights fast everything right just to keep us awake hey have you ever been out walked out of a 3d movie and you're like my head hurts what was that like I just got beat up by transformers you're receiving signals your eyes they're just being fed things and you don't have to use them they're being used by the movie seeing and looking are two different things looking is something that you do seeing is something that happens to you in order to see beyond what you see you have to look you have to put yourself in a state of assertiveness with your eyes and make a choice what am I going to look at there are tons of images whether on the internet or or anywhere else thank you that are trying to grab our attention and get our eyes off of the glory of God off of God's goodness off of his presence and God wants to give us eyes to see a different set of eyes and he's given those how do we begin to use those I want to think about this moment Samuel he's called he's anointed he's kissed by Saul's anointed he's kissed by Samuel and and then Samuel says this in 1st Samuel chapter 10 after he kisses him he anoints him sort of a holy moment going on here and he's declaring over him his kingly leadership what Saul will now be he will beat a king to the people the first of the verse he will be a king all the people of God wanted a king and they got they got they got Saul but he says this very interesting thing in verse 2 of 1st Samuel 10 he says when you have departed from me today you will find two men by Rachel's Tomb in the territory of Benjamin as Elsa and they will say to you the donkeys which you went to look for have been found and now your father has ceased caring about the donkeys and the worrying about you saying what shall I do about my son he's looking for these donkeys and Samuel the seer uses a natural moment to bring him in to a supernatural encounter he says hey there's some donkeys you're looking for but here's a moment for you that's about to happen it's gonna totally change your life then you shall go on forward from there and come to the terebinth tree at a bar it says there three men going up to God at beth-el will meet you one carrying three young goats and there another carrying three loaves of bread and another carrying a skin of wine and they will greet you and give you two loaves of bread which you are you shall receive from their hands now you have to understand something Samuel is not setting these things up Samuel is not saying hey I've already orchestrated this whole event there's going to be a real you know incredible catering business at the top you know they've got phenomenal stuff I've already prepared for just go up there I've told them that no he's telling him natural signs that he's going to look for and this is just like any other day possibly any other day in Saul's life natural science happening all around him and he has to have eyes to see he needs to pay attention it's the one thing we have a very interesting dilemma on our hands is a generation that doesn't know how to pay attention I was starting to say this to my kid my son is a he's I know he's gonna either be a professional athlete or UFC fighter I mean he's he's like bumps in everything and then and and then jumps off everything right and I would say be careful be careful and the Holy Spirit convicted me and said don't say that to him say pay attention pay attention because I needed to shift him out of being living life carefully to paying attention living life assertively with an attention on what it is that surround him are you paying attention or are you being too careful your posture would determine the level of encounter are you paying attention he says after this it says they will greet you give you two loaves of bread which you you will see from their hands and in verse five First Samuel Tim after that you shall come to the hill of God where the Philistine garrison is and it will happen when you have come there to the city that you will come to meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place with string and instrument tambourine and flute and heart before them and they will be prophesying I mean he's detailing this event put yourself in Saul shoes this weird guy just met is a hey go ahead on the journey go up this hill there's going to be these four you know the basically the circus up there and a catering business you know like we've got there's a lot of different things but I'm gonna give you details about what they look like and so you know he says they're gonna come down playing all these instruments a harp even and they will be prophesying and then it says this interested thing in verse 6 then the Spirit of the Lord will come upon you and you will prophesy with them and be turned into another man an ordinary moment that brings about an extraordinary exchange the Spirit of God is about to invade his space and verse 7 it says this and let it be when these signs come to you that you do as the occasion demands for God is with you these signs what signs were they was that a healing sign no was it a miracle sign no did the waters part before him no was there a rock there was gushing out rivers of water no those are signs that we typically think of when we think about signs and wonders but what if there are actual signs and wonders all around you every single day that are not so obvious someone comes up to you cheese and a cheese wheel is like hey and you're like that just looks like cheese and it looks like a really good day right I love cheese but what if God's trying to share something with you that sounds crazy but accorded this to Samuel Saul's visitation is dependent upon whether he sees these things as signs he says let it be when these signs come to you that you do as the occasion demands for God is with you when I was writing my book secrets of the seer something happened a friend of mine who's a dream dreamer in a dream interpreter he said this interesting that he came to me said I had a dream about you that's always I love it when people have dreams about me and if it's a good thing and so he says I had I had a dream about you he says in the dream you had a red balloon form in your heart yeah it's swollen the red balloon had expanded and then the red balloon moved from your heart to your head and then it moved from your head in a popped out side because if the balloon became too big and as it popped outside it was tethered by string you reached up to grab it when you reach up to grab you actually touch the balloon the red balloon and it popped and burst open inside of the red balloon was a scroll you took the scroll into your hand and he says and then in the dream I interpreted it the the actual dream the the order of events I interpreted it in the dream and I said to you he's talking to me telling me this he says Jamie I said to you you have let the fear of the Lord develop in your heart it has caused you to think differently it has given you a different perspective on things and gotten outside of you fully developed he says and now it has become a book just as it was a scroll and you will write a book that will completely transform the way people do life I knew it was this book secrets of the seer in it I put 10 keys to activate the frequency of seer encounters why 10 I didn't have room for 11 I what I would have written 11 but I wanted to put as many as I could the thing is that each and every one of us are given keys keys that access the kingdom of God jesus said to Peter I'm gonna give you the keys of the kingdom and he said binding and loosing and we think that that those are the keys but those are not the keys binding and loosening are two different polar extremes they're polar opposites that whether you bind or you loose heaven will respond the way that you're using these keys what was the key that he gave to Peter afterwards forgiveness he said how many times should I forgive seven times he says I tell you seventy times seven as if to say like how fast should I go with this thing how far do you want me to take it he says look if you want to bind or you want to loose you want to go fast you want to go slow you want to use it all day it will it will be unlocked for you heaven will respond to the level of forgiveness that you give what Keyes has he given you maybe he's put keys in your hand in the middle of writing this story in this book in these 10 keys something happened to me and it totally shifted the direction of of this revelation for me in my life I wanted to put together a book that was something more along the lines of you know sort of like a rehashed version of maybe some of what everybody else has already read things that I've read before but I thought nah that's not good but I don't know really what the answer is and so much of what we've heard whether it's prophetic or seer the only kind of place for it to be activated is church life and so we fail to meet the glory of God because we only allocate these things that God has given to us for church life but God began to speak to me that he wanted to do something that was designed for lifestyle adaption the entire message of the good news of Jesus is about lifestyle transformation that it's imparts a new way of thinking and a new way of doing life not so that you could just be another apostle or a prophet to the nation's but that you could be a dad a mom you could be a son a daughter you could be a brother a sister you could be a friend you could be a work or a co-worker you you could be a teacher at school and activate seer encounters in your life what if every day you're called to look at life from a different perspective and the world is waiting for you to see it yeah something happened for me at this time while I was writing this and talking I actually got through about three chapters and I was I was confused I said god I need you I need you to give me something different because this is not where I feel filled this is going I didn't know the direction and I had put the you know when you put something on your computer in the and the trash bin on your computer but you leave it there just in case you want to bring it back out I had deleted what I had written I had put it in the trash file and when I left it there just in case God didn't give me anything else and my wife and I we're down in Florida in Orlando we went to Disney we're in the middle of a move and God starts speaking to me and he says I'm going to do signs and wonders in everyday situations for you you're gonna see it and I'm going okay god I need some I need something he says I want you to have eyes to see once you get ready and so we're down there at Disney so many things going on Disney is just it's it is one of the main reasons why Christian adults backslide you know kids crazy they're going crazy you're going crazy you're like hold it together you know your life run away for like ever and then and the to our waits to ride that ride is purgatory it is you know it's the closest thing to forget or and you're sitting there waiting to ride this right any left like II I'm checking my salvation the entire time I'm I'm repenting Am I I know I've sinned I know I did something bad I don't even know what I did you're not going okay I need I need something so we we leave there and we go back to the resort the next day my wife's like we wanna go to the other Disney parks I'm like no thank you mom I'm going to the pool that's my vacation and so I'm going to the pool and

we make sure he's good okay he's like waddling and and so I'm laying out I'm thanking God for what he is doing that day and I'm just like thank you Jesus and he started speaking to me he says I'm gonna do extraordinary and I'm like yes Lord I have meetings next weekend I'm thinking I'm he's telling me this he's gonna I'm gonna do the extroyer got that's gonna happen uh you know on the west coast you know and I'm thinking it's he goes no no I'm doing I'm gonna do and also my wife comes over and I'm I'm just I'm in swim gear and she comes over she tasked me on the shoulder and she says

setting over us I grabbed them by the arms and we walked to the car we marched the car we're like it's all like so fast we get to the car I'm loading the kids in the car and my kids are like it's the boy okay he could I say yeah he's good he's good and I'm loading them in you know and my wife's loading my daughter on the other side I'm strapping my son in and we both come around the car the door back doors of the car to the front and simultaneously we come to the front and we look up and we both see there's a man standing there looking at me he's standing there like it's awkward he looks at me he says hi Jamie and I go hi he says is the boy okay I say yeah he goes good and he gets in his white van and he drives away I [Music] looked at my wife I said that was an angel he knew my name she says yeah I saw few days later and they actually brought in the evac and helicopter hit him out of there checked his vitals and his brain function because he should be without oxygen that long and he should be a vegetable and I call my my wife went back to the pool a few days later and see she sees a man there and she says I know you he says I am the uncle of that boy and this she says what is he okay she says he's totally fine in fact he's right here at the pool my wife says what happened and she says this I mean this is soulmate she actually has a picture of them like they all took a group selfie with her she says that the uncle said well he told me he has no recollection he has no remembrance of anything the only thing he remembers is that he was in a place where he could breathe underwater I believe he was a with the Lord and the spirit and made me realize there are moments like this that's an extreme but there are moments like this hidden in plain sight all around us or that angel he didn't have wings he didn't have a halo look like a look like another person in life it's another another person walking passing you by and Jesus has sent his angel to raise a boy from drowning what if there are moments like this that you and I could have eyes to see and recognize father we thank you that we have eyes to see we've been given the ability to look at the hidden things the things that are hidden in plain sight we thank you God awaken our eyes give us understanding and give us a fresh perspective I thank you for that in Jesus powerful name I because of time I would like to continue to the next session is that okay and I realize some of you have kids in children's care and they're there till nine o'clock and so what we're going to do is just go till 9:00 and at that time I won't make an announcement if you need to go get your kids at that time you can go we might run a couple minutes over past nine then we'll do ministry after this this message has been so life-changing for me because when I began to realize that there there are moments outside of what are what we think our spiritual moments are our typical idea of you know times for ministry or times for God to intervene or even times for us to use our gifts are at the altar or at times where the ministry is happening but what if every day your life is filled with moments that God wants you to take advantage of what it is that he's given you because that X Factor separates you it distinguishes you you have an edge that no one else has you have ears to hear his voice and you have eyes to see you've been given an ability to see the unseen things this is this is the amazing thing about God why do we only make it about the four walls what happens in here why don't we take it into our businesses why don't we take it into our classrooms when we look at that kid in the class and we know who they are in the spirit and we can see having eyes to see and and and discern what's going on in their hearts things from me like this started happening years ago and when I started getting called to this type of development it was something in my life that began to shift I started having these supernatural moments and what it just happened one morning I was out making eggs in my house in my house and all of a sudden I start hearing a sound I start hearing a voice and worship that sounds like Handel's Messiah it's going off in my house while I'm making eggs I'm like what's going on here and I've run through the house I'm looking for you know some kind of radio or something playing at this and I can't find it it's like it's there all around completely enveloping the the room completely enveloping the atmosphere and I can hear it and I'm go what is this and things start happening at night I would go to bed only to be awakened by lights moving into the room makes you think of room you know about closely counters of the third kind but they would be lights moving into the room and dancing on the walls and I would be so like disturbed by it I go and I'd wake my wife I could get up there's things there's lights there's like colorful things happening and she go oh that's nice honey and she'd go back to bed at the time we were living in this condo in Nashville Tennessee and I would in our bedroom we had a wall that the the people who decorated this place and created this place they did a spectacular job but they created like the see-through panels that from the bedroom the master bedroom that can actually see out over the loft area and you can literally see through the wall and in inside of the see-through panelist is sort of a steel or metal wiring and it's just it's a really really beautiful job like iron wiring excuse me and and so I'm sitting there looking at at this and I go to bed I go to bed and I wake up and when I wake up I see a man in white walking on the other side of the wall talk about scary and things like this start happening in another time another die I'm I'm a wanderer so I wander out into different areas looking for cooler temperatures in the house at night and so I fall asleep on the couch it's the middle of the night I fall asleep and I wake up and I'm like oh it's 4:00 in the morning I just fell asleep why am i awake and when I wake up I'm like why is my wife dressed in a white gown I'm thinking in my head because what we often think is the angel comes and the angel has wings comes over to you and says hey I'm the angel so so I just what you know I'm here with you okay we got this high-five okay we're going but they don't always announce they're coming and sometimes they don't even know that you could see them that's the interesting thing about angels we that's walking past me and I'm watching and I'm like oh that's not my wife and when it's happening I'm like be perfectly still things like this started happening and at the same time I started having these internal inner visions and inner thoughts and I it was just like all of a sudden I'd get something I catch something almost like a signal or catch you know like this flash image that would come across the screen of my imagination and it started happening in weird situations I was not in ministry I was serving tables and I'm sitting there at this table I'm talking to them and they are they had eaten this incredible steak dinner and at the end of it I say you know this we got some phenomena all desserts but you know my favorite dessert is and they said what I said grape juice they go what we didn't even have grape juice at the restaurant I said I love grape juice because all of a sudden in my imagination grape juice became like this thing I'm thinking my grape juice this is not all day I'm talking about within the last 30 seconds and I'm thinking grape juice is awesome grape juice is incredible and they're looking at me they're going grape juice and I said I know it's amazing [Laughter] and they said do you know who we work for I said no I said Welch's I want to tell you my tip was incredible that now I'm coming to a table now I'm having these weird encounters at night and then and then other things are happening I'm coming to a table and I've got two salads for a husband and wife they're out on a date and as I'm coming to the table I see the man he's eating the salad this is a man in an inner vision inside like I'm in imagination and as he's eating the salad he's like this he takes a bite and he goes and I'm like oh my gosh he's allergic to nuts and I have these nuts on the salad and I'm like should I chance it [Laughter] enema I just tell them so we get to the I get to the table and I set it down and as I'm setting it down he goes Wow get that out of my face I'm allergic to nuts and I'm like something's happening to me it's like the moment where you realize you've got superpowers I'm sitting there with the man at the next table and I'm talking to him and I go I go up I go what would you like tonight for your steak and he says I want a steak in it and then he says and I want a potato and I don't know why I go way to go Idaho [Laughter] and I see Idaho on a map in my imagination I go way to go Idaho he goes that's where I'm from I had to pay attention because their inner thoughts imaginations that God is giving to us and if scripture says take every thought captive not just the bad ones the good ones because the seer nature that's inside of you is not just about what's outside of you it's what's going on within it's how you see the world with a different set of eyes the book of Revelation tells us that that this that there are four living creatures at the throne that constantly worship God there if you think about it they're like God's pets living beasts God has pets right and they're beautiful and I I realized what they looked like not I'm not saying that because I've seen him I'm saying that that and I've had encounters where they actually one of them has actually come to me but what real when I realized something about them was when I was at a friend of mine I was in Fairfax Virginia at his farm and he has peacocks and when he had these peacocks they would come up and he goes oh it's mating season watch what they do and they bring out their beautiful feathers and they show off their beautiful feathers and in it there's these little round what looked like eyes eyes and when I looked at that I go that's like the living creatures because it says about the living creatures they have eyes around and within now how do you see the eyes within John who has a revelation on the Isle of Patmos he has a visitation he's caught up to the third heaven he has an encounter the angel of the Lord is sent by Jesus to tell him about this future things things that are to come and things that are even in heaven right now and he says and I saw them the four living creatures having eyes and around and within they have eyes on the inside and they have eyes on the outside as I read that I thought that's just like the believer each of us have eyes outside and eyes inside we'd be given a different set of eyes or we're more trusting of the outside set of eyes than the inside set of eyes there's a book by Malcolm Gladwell called blink Malcolm Gladwell who recently came back to his faith wrote this interesting book called blink and it was basically about how we by instinct we know things in the blink of an eye we know things and we know that we know but we trained herself out of knowing these things they had a individual who was able to look at paintings and within a split second tell where whether or not the painting was a real one or a fake they had a coach who is able to tell whether a tennis player by instinct from the second they stood there with the ball out of the their instinct out of the inner set of eyes the blink that's going on inside of them tell whether that tennis player is going to fault or they're gonna actually hit an ace what if God has given you a set of eyes to see and but we've been trained to doubt then skeptical we've and we investigate but we over investigate we investigate to our own hurt and we don't trust our instinct we don't trust the inner set of eyes how did the inner set of eyes work I want to propose to you that God has given you an ability to live in two places at one time you are living in heaven and on earth at the same time now that sounds spooky weird but it's actually what Jesus came to reestablish for us when God spoke to Adam in the garden where are you it wasn't because God did not know where Adam was in the garden God could no longer see Adam and Eve at the right hand in heavenly places Adam was created to live in heaven and on earth when Adam and Eve walk with God they were able to live interacting with this world in interacting with the other simultaneous interaction what if we're living in parallel universes where heaven is having a direct effect an impact on what's going on here and what's going on here is having a direct effect on how heaven is responding we're living in this tension and it's like this dance if you could see it in the spirit it's this dance that's going on and it's hidden in plain sight it's moments where you give and you give when you shouldn't every natural reasoning says don't but you give anyway you're generous whether it's to the homeless person or to Fran or whatever and you reach in your pocket and you give and you unlock Heaven's wealth in your life there's a dance going on and are we putting our feet in the right order do we know how to dance with what it is that God has given us this is what we've been called to and the parallel universe became real to me because I started to see evidence of it all around moments like these with angels showing up things happening in my day and all of a sudden something happened that broke opened my eyes to see in another way I was not in ministry I didn't really want anything to do with it I was happy working creating a life for myself I started doing real estate I it's a noble thing we have any real estate agents here okay we're believing God for a house and multiple houses actually it's so I'm going I love houses I love owning houses so I want to do real estate and I'm sitting there at the class looking at the realtor and I see an angel like to the realtor I'm not telling anybody I'm not like you know some people there they're kind of like you know they're the signal in the room whether God is there or not you know for me I'm silent but deadly so I'm watching this thing you know what that's a that's a stinking angel right there as I as a angel from heaven right there what is that angel doing and it looks like a light and it's hanging staying there and I'm going what second day it's back again I try and pay attention I'm like god I gotta take this class and I gotta pass this test and it keeps coming all throughout the second day the third day it comes again and it's standing next to the teacher and just watching this whole thing take place and the teachers teaching out of material and she's opening up the book she's like okay class we need to learn about a lot and plot you need to learn it's like super dry and boring nothing spectacular no worship going on you know know what no it's just it's as dry dry dry and I've sitting there watching this and also and this angel shows up I'm like angel is there again she's talking out of the text and all this is she goes what the heck and the class goes what what is it she goes oh my god what's going on in here she's looking behind her look at all around she's like this has this place has ghosts and the class is like whoa is she's like oh my gosh I don't know what just happened but we need to all take a break something is something's here and I'm like I know what it is I walk up to her in the middle of the break and I say excuse me she's like white as a ghost I say excuse me she says yeah honey and I said I see angels I'm sitting there going what she goes she does you do I said tell me what happened I'm curious and she says all I know is I'm standing there and something pushes me my back is up against the wall and it whispers in my ear in the sweetest southern voice I've ever heard excuse me I've got to get by now a southern angel she's like what is this I said that's amazing I don't really know but I do see angels that was there and I have I don't know anything else beyond that and she's like oh my gosh so she regains composure we go through the rest of the day class comes back in order and I'm just in there like the whole rooms like talking you know it's hard to concentrate the next day I come to class she's opening the text she calls a little break time come up I can't understand anything going on in the text she goes I said excuse me I need to talk to you she says what about she goes I said I I can't understand what you're talking about earlier and she goes forget that honey we need to talk about the angel I said oh oh yeah she goes oh yeah a friend of our in a person in a class the student in the class comes up and says what are you all talking about and then the teacher says we're talking about angels honey do you see angels and it student goes no I don't see angels teacher says okay these shoes are away things are happening in my life and I can't I can't I'm just like God something's going on and it set in motion this message that I'm speaking today because there are secret things going on God is up to and you and I are there being planted waiting for moments that we can go that's what Jesus is doing Peter stands up in the book of Acts on the day of Pentecost and he says this is that which the Prophet Joel spoke what if you're being sent out into the marketplace into culture into society to be able to go this is that having eyes to see this is that moment the world is astounded when God shows up there are things happening all around us that we scientists are trying to explain away why is it all the sudden frequencies and sounds and this sound what sounds the only way that I can describe it is the sound of a shofar blowing and it's going out across nations right now and people are uploading these videos to YouTube and it sounds like a horn or a deep brass and it's going out over nations scientists have tried to explain it away they say there's something from outer space I've done the research there's something from outer space trying like waves or something coming into our ozone layer and and causing friction and when it does it creates this sound this frequency and that's what it is easy I love it when scientists try to explain away God moments it gets even more supernatural for me when they say that I'm like you mean God knows how to make the ozone layer sound like that he's even more of a genius I remember watching on Discovery Channel over Christmas at one point are they're talking about Jesus and a positive light but they always got to kind of balance it out so they go through the D mithilai you know deep demystifying and and taking away anything that you know scientifically proving that the miracles of the Bible are not real I'm reading this watching this and going I want to watch this so then they go yeah actually the time when the when the Egyptian armies were chasing after Israel and Israel crossed over it says they crossed over got part of the water as well it was because the tide was low at that one time and they were able to cross over that's why and then I'm like oh my gosh that's even more miraculous how did God drown Egyptian armies in ankle-deep water oh my gosh he's amazing you know like in Daniels time when Shadrach Meshach and Abednego they get cast in the fiery furnace it was because in that big oven there was a certain section that if you stood on that you you would not be touched by the hot scorching fires and like oh my gosh God's even more of a genius he knows how did you locate those thermal areas they're less hot quantum physics is spiritual science I believe as quantum physics grows and evolves we're going to begin to discover things even the god particle is being discussed in popular science and and quantum science we're starting to see in incredible discoveries in quantum science in the field of quantum physics that help us discover the ways of God and the ways of the kingdom of God and Jesus said this interesting thing he said the kingdom of heaven is at hand why why would Jesus say the kingdom of heaven is at hand if if Jesus also was trying to bring heaven at a later time we think about the kingdom of heaven like heaven is gonna come down and then everything's gonna change it's gonna be one radical moment I believe that but Jesus had a different idea about heaven at that moment he said repent Matthew 4 he said repent because the kingdom of heaven is at hand we pray heaven on earth heaven on earth got three heaven earth I believe heaven is on earth and I believe it's coming but do you have eyes to see where it already is here see we have eyes that are be given to us to be able to detect where heaven is already touching earth this is the dance this is the parallel universe these are the this is the time when when heaven touches earth and things start to work together this began to be a reality to me when I was working not wanting to go back into ministry and a good friend of mine dear friends of our family Kimberly Rivera Alberto Rivera we're spending the night at their house and she speaks to me she says Jamie you know you're going back into ministry in fact everything is gonna shift you're gonna have a geographical relocation and everything is gonna change for you and I'm like what what are you talking about I know happy and she says yep you're going you get you're gonna be stepping into something and it's gonna happen tonight I'm like dirt dirt dirt you know so I go to bed and all of a sudden I wake up I'm asleep but then also I wake up in them in a place it's like a dream but I'm there it's another place and in this place it's like a room I hear a knock on the door and when the knock happens I'm like who's at the door and all these instinctual things are kind of coming up in me and I'm going I better hide I don't know who that is at the door so I go and run and I hide I'm trying to hide this is a dream this or something but I'm there and the door opens and the angel Gabriel walks through the door and I see him he's walking to the door and I'm like ah his angel Gabriel and I I'm thinking I'm gonna miss my moment to meet the angel Gabriel I don't get over my fear and so I I were looking at him and as he's walking in he's not tall he's short he looks like a like renegade poet he has this sort of weird mysterious look to him he has skin that's made of gold and silver he has jet black eyes he's got long black hair and he walks in and he's got clouds billowing at his feet and when he walks in the room I'm like ah I gotta see him and so I run out and I fall down on my knees in front of him I lift my hands and I say out of my mouth praise Jesus Christ I wanted him to know that I was not worshiping him we read in Revelation 19 it says don't worship me as John fell at the feet of the angel he says don't worship Me I'm one of your brothers who had the testimony of Jesus worship God for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy I was going that's going through my mind I'm thinking I do I'd be better he'd better know I'm not gonna worship Him and so I fought I go praise Jesus Christ and he looks at me and he says what are you waiting for and instantly I'm back in my body in my bed my wife is there 4:00 a.m. I wake up and there's rain pounding on the door we were going through a drought a massive drought at that time in the southeastern region of the United States Tennessee was under drought much of the southeast was under drought it was bad and I wake up and rain heavy rain is falling and all of a sudden the drought breaks overnight I get up and I'm crying rains falling outside and it's also coming out of my eyes and I'm like what is this ha of crying and I wait and I go honey how do I go she's like huh that's it the angel Gabriel just visit Lee he said huh what are you learning for she says that's nice honey she rolls over goes back to bed something is shifted all of a sudden I start getting phone calls I started getting ministry events things are happening so so powerfully people are wanting to speak about what this message is and it starts to break open so much so that even my tables at the restaurant I'm still at the restaurant are inviting me to the church to speak not to get safe to speak I'm not even telling them I had one and I sit down I'm telling them about the specials that night and they go could you pray for our meal I'm like okay every head bowed every eye closed and it becomes it gets more it gets more and more and more intense the angels are showing up I'm getting I'm getting these pictures these images and it's the seer nature starts to awaken I begin to see and I realized that everyone has this everyone has this but what about this parallel universe heaven is touching earth I realized that there's always a cause and effect there are things that mirror this supernatural the spirit he when he ever he does sup the Holy Spirit does something in the spirit there's a mirror evidence in the in the natural and I begin to look for these moments and I realized that the dance between the natural and spiritual is happening all the time but are we paying attention are we looking for it and as the drought broke off the southeastern region of the United States it finalized with this moment where a tropical cyclone formed over North Carolina and the name of that cyclone was Gabrielle they named it Gabrielle that broke August 24 that was September 8th when that happened when I had the visitation and then the the Gabrielle cyclone what if there are moments like this they that that just did there but you could even explain them away because someone could say well Gabrielle's not Gabriel metropolis cyclones not an angel it's actually when the north wind comes together with a south wind hate mates called at science God created science sometimes we we kind of like go well God in science they're just like God created it science just is just the study of matter quantum physics is study of invisible realities they're things happening all around us and we're discovering this and it's important that we know and recognize these moments because how you see the world changes everything we're starting to realize and recognize that in this parallel universe there are certain realities that are from your consciousness that are shaping the world around you even things like consciousness are being you know put on the table as far as talks go like how do consciousness happen if we're all if if we're all created out of you know out of a big bang then where did consciousness come into effect because consciousness seems to be this create this created thing or this real thing that has some sort of substance to it but they can't detect it they can't like where did it happen personality this is a very real thing how do these things type these type of things happen it's started a study and look at different ways that we look at the world even quantum physics is discovering this the way that we look at the world changes the way the world behaves there's a an effect called the quantum Zeno effect and the quantum Zeno effect is is sort of the a watched pot never boils when you look at something it doesn't change while you're looking at it but when you take your eyes away it gives a its beginning it's given the freedom to change that's why wary causes things to stay the same worry is you keeping your eyes on it going good you got to change you got to do you know you're tailing your kid you're telling your fourteen-year-old you got to change you got to be different you can't be that say you know and they can't change because you have your eyes on them when you take your eyes off of it and you give it to God and let them have a look at it what happens it changes it gives us a due meaning to how God sees things when he looks at things what happens the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth seeking for a heart it's completely his he's looking who will heal and on who will heal and on on one side of these observable laws in quantum physics because they are observable they're not yet they're not as we call laws every law even that we we call a law is an observed law it's an observed behavior that nature does what why you know even that the understanding of gravity was given in a dream invisible realities you know they're shaping the world around us do you know that dreams and visions have completely revolutionized our life as we know we may not even realize it Google itself was given in a dream the concept of Google we may not realize it but dreams are one of the primary ways that God is speaking to us why dreams in our dreams like little visions that we're having on our eyelids every night closed my eyes my eyelids play movies for me know what eyes are you using when you sleep how are you seeing those dreams those dreams are as real - sometimes so that sometimes they're out there as real as as real can be we see it and now that's what we call lucid dreaming and I've discovered ways to enhance a lucid dreaming in their life that are not connected to drugs God wants us to dream he wants us to have visions he wants us to see and when we do have those moments are we paying attention on the other side of things there's another law called the law of observation it's an observable law in quantum physics that when you look at something and depending on how you look at it it changes in its in its life form or the way it is they've frozen light slowed down light so slow that they can now look at it and the big discussion when I was a kid in school is no one knows where their light is a wave or a particle remember that I remember going through school grade school learning is the weight of the light a wave or a particle if for some reasons like a month long topic and I couldn't understand why such a big deal but they were wanting to know well physicists have slowed down light so much and they've discovered that depending upon how you look at it light will change from a wave to a particle or a wave or a particle back to a wave how you view it changes the way it reacts to you responds to you what if people are the same what if your projections of them matter you look at them like they're failures they're gonna be a failure you look at them like their success they're amazing they're lovable the love they're gonna be lovable they're gonna prosper they're gonna be bitter they're gonna be better that's how we look at our kids I'm like Mary saying even when their kids are my kids are sinning I'm like you ever had when your kids did something naughty and you know you have to discipline but in your heart you're like that kid is such a genius that's how God looks at us he sees you heaven is interacting with us every single day invisible realities I want to help you have eyes to see I don't give you those eyes Jesus gives you those eyes but I might I might through what I'm learning be able to help you discover what to look for are you paying attention to what heaven is giving you is showing you all around you I hope you are pay attention to the moments hidden in plain sight there are moments when numbers are speaking to us why do you wake up to two to two every night or 1 1 1 why is it your meeting that same person every day you know or someone that is the name the same name three times four times in one day what is heaven trying to say to you well why do these moments happen and we dismissed them we have a dream about something pink elephant and then we're driving down the highway and I see a pink elephant on the side of the road that's like my dream all right I say pizza last night we dismiss it God wants to give you eyes to see I want to help you have eyes I see both in the natural and in the supernatural because it's not about just us phasing and looking at like hallucinogenic visions all day it's about us seeing the world around us from a different perspective I see you and I see who me who God made you to be I see how incredible you are that's what having eyes to see does father we thank you for your presence in this room you've given us eyes to see I asked for heaven to be in this room heaven to be released in this room there are people in here that are going to receive not just from the teaching but you're going to receive by the Holy Spirit in Awakening in your life tonight their dreams and visions and encounters but just as Jesus said the words that I speak are spirit and their life the flesh profits nothing the words that were declaring right now these mysteries they're going out over you as an impartation they're their spirit life spiritual substance that's like nourishment like bread is you're receiving these words not just as logic or a good teaching but as spiritual substance that's awakening your eyes to see I believe you're going to taste and see that the Lord is good you're going to taste and see that God is for you not against you we've yet to get into divine appointments disappointments bypassing disappointment getting into divine appointment setting ourself up for the frequency of dreams setting our heart ready for God to speak to us and not only in our ears but having open vision what does that look like how do we do that and how do we stay still scriptural and still sound and understand that this is not some new agey thing but this is the ways of God how do we do that some of you are going to begin to awaken to two things in your life and you're going to go I don't know what this means proverbs 25:2 says is the glory of God to conceal a matter but it's the glory of kings to search a matter out let him show you things that you have to sit on for a long time and search it out let him show you things things that help you discover the true nature of our Heavenly Father thank you father for doing this in Jesus name Amen
