A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS.

A hard copy picture or a projected image can be inspected more intently, time after time

While a picture or image in our mind can last for a determined moment.

Some of them can have a lasting place in our memory.

A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS.

A Picture has a theme, a message. It speaks by itself. What I see in a picture is not what

others see in the same picture. Every person sees the picture with their

eyes. The soul or senses. And or of the spirit.

GOD GIVES US PICTURES AS A WAY OF COMMUNICATING WITH US.

God will give us information through a picture. This information is put in our spirit. It comes with a direct revelation. Then our spirit connects will our soul. We choose to think, speak and act with our

renewed soul in unison with the desires of God.

We relegate information from the senses, our body; which is in contact with the physical world.

 GOD GIVES US PICTURES AS A WAY OF COMMUNICATING WITH US.

It could be a clear or rather a vague image. We capture what calls our attention, two or

three aspects in the picture. We connect with the Spirit of God for an

input. We connect with the Word of God. With God’s heart for His feelings/emotions. We deliver the message

PICTURES CAN BE VERY SIMPLE

WHAT DO YOU SEE?

WHERE IS THE CAT?

CHANGE YOUR FOCUS AND YOU CAN SEE SOMETHING DIFFERENT

We need to train our senses. Become more alert of our surrounding. Hebrews 5:14 New King James Version (NKJV) 14 But solid food belongs to those who

are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR IN A PICTURE OR IMAGE?

The main message. Countenance expressions: emotions, race. Colors, forms, quantity, numbers. Location, surroundings. Foreground, background. Sounds, noise, music. Written message. Implied message.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR IN A PICTURE OR IMAGE?

Our own feelings. Is it connected to the person I’m

speaking to? Is it for my benefit so I can interpret it? How can I related to the Bible? How can I Show God through this

picture? Will the person be encouraged by the

relating of the word?

WHERE IS YOUR FOCUS?

Your focus is not on the picture. It’s just a tool.

Your focus is not in your personal experiences and emotions.

Your focus is on God, through the work of the Holy Spirit via His gifts.

Now see the person through the eyes of God. And let God’s love in you start to flow,

causing the person to receive it and experience it.
