“And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs” Mark 11:13 (ESV).

From a distance, the fig leaves gave Jesus the impression that there was fruit on the tree.  Upon closer inspection, the tree was fruitless.

Perfect church attendance and ministry activity cannot replace actual Christ-like fruit produced in our lives.

From a distance, it can appear as though we’re bearing fruit but what would we find with a closer look?

Are we content with fruitful appearance or do we yearn for the real thing?

“Then Elisha prayed and said, "O LORD, please open his eyes that he may see…”  Excerpt from 2 Kings 6:17 (ESV).

One morning, Elisha’s young servant went out first thing and saw the Syrian army surrounding Elisha’s home town.  The servant was racked with fear and cried out to Elisha, “what will we do?”  Elisha said “don’t be afraid.  There are more with us than are with them.”

Then Elisha prayed, LORD open this young man’s eyes.”

The servant then saw mountain full of horses and chariots of fire!!!

As opposition mounts in our lives fear not, the LORD who is in us and with us is greater than the hostility present in the world.

“Also take with you every sort of food that is eaten, and store it up. It shall serve as food for you and for them.”  Proverbs 18:17

God gave this instruction to Noah as he prepared to board the ark.

In addition to the specific dimensions of the boat, God also gave Noah instructions for food provisions.

Noah, his family, and the animals remained on the ark for an entire year.  But God’s plan for them included space to accommodate animal growth for the various animal kinds all the way to the necessary food, for an entire year.

If God employed such forethought in providing for salvation from the flood just think what He has in store for our eternal salvation.
