SPIRIT THAT SEES MEN AS TREES
READ Mark 8:22-26
Mark 8:24,KJV
"And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking."
Vision is very important. A blurred vision is not very much different from no vision. A blurred vision would miss what a thing is exactly. It misjudges whatsoever it sees.
Jesus opened the eyes of a blind man and did it by spatting and then touching him. Jesus affirms if he sees after the first act of healing. The man speaks sincerely and says he is seeing men as trees!
How can someone be seeing men as trees? Obviously, that man has missed the whole picture. You can't call that seeing. If food were placed before him and it was a plate of rice,he would have taken it as a mountain. That's at the first time. To clear his vision, Jesus had to lay hands on him the second time which was the very time his sight was then restored. At that time, he sees men as they were. He didn't take them for any other thing.
This inadequacy of having a thing weaved before one and taking it for an entirely different thing is possible in the spirit. There are spirits that God communicates to but which the communication is misdescribed. He has seen a snake in his vision but his own spirit that couldn't download it adequately presents it to him as a rope. You know that the devil has gotten such. The aim of the devil is to block man from anything called divine communication. If he can't block you from it totally but makes you see wrongly, I'll say he has achieved his purpose.
Many Christians there be that are stumbling in seeing. What God presents before them as revelation isn't what they're downloading. Such spirit needs cleansing. God needs to remove the scales and debris hindering its clear vision. When vision isn't clear, description will be distorted. When it is clear, description becomes accurate.
A spirit that is far from the things of God and has for long interacts with God shouldn't expect anything but to begin to see men as trees. Such spirit will be inadequate to capture vividly all that God may bring before it. May we all have a spirit that can describe accurately what it sees in dreams, visions, trances e.t.c. May we not be of the breed that forgets divine communication shown us.
PRAYER: Lord, cleanse my spirit man. Let it be free to detect You and devil's moves accurately.
