Jesus said "lift up your eyes and look" to the dicples. He was talking about the fields of souls that are ripe for harvesting. The NIV puts it "see and look". It is an amazing thing for Jesus to say because He is talking about seeing with our eyes, but really He is talking about looking with our Spirit. There is a connection between our physical ability to see and our spiritual ability to see. It is not that the physical influences the spiritual but rather the spiritual that enables the physical!
To see with our physical eyes and see through our flesh (our human ability) is to disregard our spirits. Jesus in John 4 say we must worship in spirit - why? Because the spirit realm is what is real and lasting. Our physical bodies worship, but they only reflects our spirits.
We have got to listen to our spirits which have been born of God and stop looking and seeing through our eyes and our flesh. Life is in the spirit! So see with you eyes and look with you spirits what God is doing in the realm of the spirit. There you will find truth and life.
