What Do You See?" is a sermon theme urging believers to shift from a physical, fear-based perspective to a spiritual, faith-filled view (2 Cor. 5:7). It challenges whether we see obstacles or opportunities (Numbers 13:26-29), asking if we see Jesus as a Savior or just a tool. God asks, "What do you see?", inviting us to align our vision with His promise.

Sermon Points: What Do You See?
• The Problem of Perspective (The 10 Spies vs. Caleb): Like the spies, we often focus on the giants (problems) instead of God, leading to defeatism.
• The Spiritual Lens (Jeremiah’s Almond Branch): God asks what we see to check if we are looking at our circumstances or at His promise to fulfill His word.
• Beyond the Physical (Blind Bartimaeus): Many saw a beggar, but Bartimaeus saw Jesus as the Son of David/Merciful Healer.
• The Call to See New Things (Isaiah 43:19): God is constantly working, even in the wilderness; we must look for the "new thing" instead of being trapped by the past.
• Correcting Vision (Mark 8): Sometimes we need a second touch from Jesus to see situations clearly, moving from blurry, earthly perspectives to divine clarity. 
Key Takeaway: What you focus on determines your response. Choose to see through the lens of God's power.
