Faith Beyond Sight
from Starting Right · host DannyMac
Have you ever wondered what it really means to "live by faith, not by sight"? This morning, I dive into this challenging concept from 2 Corinthians 5:7 through two powerful stories that illuminate this spiritual principle in vivid, practical ways.First, I share the tragic story of John Kennedy Jr.'s fatal flight to Martha's Vineyard in 1999. Kennedy, who held only a Visual Flight Rating, experienced spatial disorientation when visibility deteriorated. Unable to trust instruments over his senses, he crashed into the ocean. The biblical parallel comes from 2 Kings 6, where Elisha and his servant were surrounded by enemy forces. While the servant panicked at what he saw, Elisha prayed for spiritual eyes to be opened, revealing the hillside filled with God's fiery army of protection. What looked like certain defeat from human perspective was actually divine protection from God's perspective.My challenge to you today: Get into God's Word, learn His promises, and choose to trust what He says over what you see or feel. Nothing is beyond His control. Join me again tomorrow as we continue starting our days by starting right.We would love to hear your comments. Send us a Text MessageSupport the show
