John 11:39,40 – “Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.” Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?”
“I’ll believe it when I see it,” is a cliché in our western culture. It has a cynicism about it that keeps one guarded from hoping for something that may or may not happen. This type of mentality won’t cut it in the kingdom of God. Jesus is saying, “You’ll see it when you believe it.” Faith comes first, then reality of it manifests. Faith is the currency of God’s economy. There is something very pleasing to God when we believe Him without seeing it first. You have to get it before you get it. Get it? You have to obtain it before you obtain it; you have to possess it before you possess it. This is the language of faith and it is very challenging because you cannot go by what you see with your natural eyes. We must operate in a totally different realm. It is a kingdom substance, kingdom material.
Do you really believe today? If so, you will see things others will not see. You will experience things others will not experience. To you the kingdom of God will be manifested.
