SEE RIGHT
Exodus 2:1-10

“And a man of the house of Levi went and took as wife a daughter of Levi. 2 So the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months.” (Exodus 2:1-2) The child was born at a time when every other parent could not see beauty because of the killing of the Hebrew sons. As a believer, it is important to know that out of the abundance of the heart not only does the mouth speak but the eyes see. Speaking, seeing and every other provoking agent of blessings should be rooted in faith. Whatever is seen with the eye is processed in the heart and the heart is where God holds us responsible. This can be confirmed in the word of Jesus, “But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” (Mathew 5:28) What Jesus is saying here is like see with your eyes and sin in your heart. However, if one could get on the bad side (sinful side) of the Lord just by looking, one should also be able to get on His good side (blessed side) just by seeing. How do you see when all are seeing ugly? At the time Moses was born, Pharaoh had commanded the killing of every male born by a Hebrew family in Egypt. The mother of Moses saw that her son was a beautiful child. She saw him as, unqualified for death and found it unacceptable for him to be killed. The mother had faith in what she saw and hid him from untimely death. Unlike every other woman that must have lost her child or children, she refused to give up her beautiful child. After she could no longer hold on to him in hiding, she set him up in an ark in the direction of where he was picked up by the daughters of Pharaoh. At the time he was picked up every identity revealed that the baby belonged to a Hebrew family yet Pharaoh’s daughter had compassion on the baby. “And when she opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby wept. So she had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.” (Exodus 2:6) Moses that was supposed to be killed was raised and cared for by the house of Pharaoh. Have you been marked for a situation that is not your portion, and there is no way out for you? God that changed the command of Pharaoh over Moses, from death to life is still on the throne. If you will begin to see life in the place of death, whatever is bringing down tens and hundreds around you will not touch you in Jesus’ name.
