Seen by Heaven

God Sees Beyond the Ordinary, so should you.
“For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”— 1 Samuel 16:7
Man’s view: You are defined by what can be seen.
Heaven’s view: You are defined by what cannot be seen — the heart that belongs to Him. God measures not by the temporary, but by the eternal.
You Carry His Glory
“But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.”— 2 Corinthians 4:7
Man’s view: You are just ordinary clay.
Heaven’s view: You hold a treasure that cannot be measured — the power of His Spirit within you. What looks fragile to man carries the extraordinary strength of God.
You Are Set Apart
“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people…”— 1 Peter 2:9
Man’s view: You are one among many.
Heaven’s view: You are chosen, royal, holy, and His own.
The world sees common; God calls you uncommon.
Seated With Him in Heavenly Places
“And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.”— Ephesians 2:6
Man’s view: You are bound to earth.
Heaven’s view: You already share a seat in His realm — a place of honour, intimacy, and authority.
Your location in the natural is not your position in the Spirit.
You Reflect His Image
“As we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.”— 1 Corinthians 15:49
Man’s view: You bear Adam’s dust.
Heaven’s view: You bear Christ’s glory.
The same face man calls ordinary, Heaven calls radiant.
Declaration: Seen by Heaven
I am not defined by man’s opinion, for the Lord looks at my heart (1 Samuel 16:7).
I carry His treasure in this jar of clay (2 Corinthians 4:7) — power that is not my own, but His.
I am chosen, royal, holy, and His own (1 Peter 2:9).
I walk this earth, yet I am seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6).
I bear the image of the heavenly Man (1 Corinthians 15:49).
When man calls me ordinary, Heaven calls me extraordinary.
When I feel small, I remember: Heaven knows my name.
See with His eyes!
