Living the Multidimensional Life
by Keith Moore
Have you ever considered the fact that you are a multidimensional being? By that, I mean you are comprised of an inward man and an outward man.
We all are.
We are called to occupy both the physical and the spiritual dimensions at the same time.
Sadly, most people only live in one of those dimensions—the physical. They completely ignore or miss what is right in front of them.
Consider this: If you and I were standing in the same room, but I closed my eyes and turned away from you, would I be able to see you? No I wouldn’t. To see you, I would need to open my eyes and look in your direction. I would need to focus on you and turn toward you.
In the same way, you can be in a room with the Lord right there with you, and never see, hear or acknowledge the spiritual reality that He is there.
We need to learn how to live focused on the Lord and what He is doing—to live multidimensionally, with one eye on the physical and one eye on the spiritual.
Focus on Your Blessing
In Matthew 13:9, Jesus said, “Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.” That phrase occurs numerous times in Scripture, but what does it mean? Verses 12-17 explain:
"For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them."
