FAITH CAPSULE: The face of God is what all need to encounter.

Psalm 121, Isaiah 45:14-25

Encouragement is in the word of God for the expectation of manifestation.
In the testimonies of the Psalmist, there is documentation for any believer to look up to God for manifestation.
The Psalmist testifies in Psalm 121:1-2, “I will lift up my eyes to the hills from whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD Who made heaven and earth.” 
Where do you look up to in times of any need for help? 
Are you looking up because others lookup? 
Looking up outside of the intervention of God is committing to the world.
John 2:24 encourages by not committed to anyone “But Jesus did not commit Himself to them because He knew all men,”
Do you consciously lift your eyes to the hills instead of looking up to God?
The deliberate and conscious act is a demonstration of understanding. Understanding what is activated is what produces results. 
Do you know what to get when you look to the high place, the enthroned of God?
In looking up, there should be an expectation to connect with the presence of God, the face of God. Psalm 34:5 states, “They looked up unto Him and were radiant, And their faces were not ashamed.” 
An encounter with the face of God will bring all that one needs to travel along the path of life without any agent of the wicked terminating such a journey to the expected end. 
John 3:31 records, “He who comes from above is above all…” 
Why not look above? 
There is only one God, and He is the One that is above all. 
The Word of God encourages, “Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.” 
Why not look up to God?
Looking up to God is a meaningful approach to gain manifestation for expectation. 
Jacob was with consciousness with expectation for manifestation.
Jacob, while on his way after moving from Laban, wrestled with an angel, and he gave the testimony of his encounter in Genesis 32:30, “So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: “For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” 
Jacob had an encounter face-to-face with God, the testimony to their experience preservation. 
The face of God is what all need to encounter in the life journey. 
An encounter with the face of God will carry one through, and such will pass over every force in life. 
Paul the Apostle prayed in 2 Timothy 4:18, “And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen! 
Every journey demands not to take eyes away from looking up to God.

Prayer for today: O Lord my God, I ask for strength that enables one not to look anywhere else but only at you.
