How are you looking at yourself today? As a child of God, redeemed by God with a heavy price through the Holy Son Jesus Christ, do we still often look at ourselves through our naked eyes and feelings that fluctuate today? When Zechariah's heart started to grow cold towards the promise of God because of the many unfulfilled prayers, God was still faithful and preparing the greatest blessing for him that transcended all his physical conditions - a blessed son, John the baptist. Like Zechariah, we also often lose hope in God in various circumstances, for we are always deceived into seeing ourselves outside the covenant, and narrow-mindedly, when God is still working mightily at the background to carry His perfect will to completion through our conditions. Despite our narrow-mindedness, Holy spirits is still empowering us both strongly and passively so that we will not lose faith. If we start to pray according to the truth today, we will be guided by the Holy Spirit again to look at ourselves through the lens of God and His covenant, instead of our micro circles of thoughts, emotions and desires today. Indeed God is worthy to be praised, not only "did He rescue us from the hand of our enemies, He also enables us to serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before Him all our days.”
