See A New Start - Pt 6

<p>Hello and a beautiful Wednesday morning to you in the name of Jesus.&nbsp;</p> <p>We’re still talking about the transforming power of seeing when it comes to starting afresh, having new experiences, having new starts. It takes faith to have a new start and the things you see go along way to affecting and influencing your faith.

Maybe there were in an elevated place on a mountain and the Lord could see Sodom and Gomorrah and he moved there and it looked nice. But Abraham saw in his mind’s eye. He saw beyond Sodom, he saw beyond Gomorrah, he saw Canaan, he saw all that whole place...northward, southward, eastward and westward.&nbsp;</p> <p>God said look from where you are. It doesn’t matter what you’re going through, it doesn’t matter where you are now, look from where you are. He said all you can see I gave to you.&nbsp;</p> <p>I remember the story of Walt Disney. I read his biography a couple of years ago and when they were dedicating the first theme park and the govern
