Summary

As we grow up into God, a continual upgrade of our lenses is required. The good news of the gospel is that our new-creation status not only changes the way we walk, it also changes the way we see. When we allow our perspective to align with that of heaven, we begin to see a lens full of peace, hope, and endless possibilities in the Kingdom.

Key Scriptures:

+ Acts 2:12,37. And they were beside themselves with amazement and were greatly perplexed, saying one to another, “What could this mean?” […] Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and they said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what are we to do?”

0:00.0	Welcome back to the Brilliant Perspective's podcast. I'm your host J. Lynn Bowden.
0:07.0	And today we're learning to see our circumstances through the lens of the kingdom.
0:12.0	We're continuing our month-long exploration of
0:15.8	what we like to call New Man theology, which is a joyful exploration of our
0:21.2	identity in Christ. It's about understanding that when we
0:25.3	accepted Christ, our old self died and we became a new creation in the likeness of
0:31.6	God. We're full of his love, kindness, patience, and peace.
0:37.0	And this new man doesn't just change who we are, it changes how we see. We're no longer looking at our circumstances
0:46.7	through our own eyes, but we get to see everything through the lens of the
0:51.4	kingdom.
0:53.0	As we journey together through this topic,
0:55.0	I encourage you to listen with your heart
0:58.0	and allow God's perspective
1:00.0	to completely transform the way you see your circumstances.
1:04.4	Without further ado, let's dive in with Graham Cook. As we grow up into all the fullness of Jesus, it requires a continuous upgrading of our lens.
1:26.7	So I wonder right now whether you're a new believer
1:31.4	or you've been around for a long time in the kingdom.
1:35.0	Right now, right now, in your life,
1:40.0	you're having a lens change about something. What is that?
1:44.0	You're having a lens change about God,
1:48.0	you're discovering something new about who he is.
1:51.0	It doesn't matter if you should have seen that year's about who he is.
