Healing Lesson 15 - Fixing Your Eyes on the Unseen: Staying Rooted in Faith

The walk of faith is not a journey based on what we see, feel, or hear; it’s built on the unshakable foundation of God’s promises. When it comes to healing, fixing our eyes on what’s unseen is crucial. This blog will show you how to focus on God’s truth, overcome distractions, and remain steady in faith as you walk in divine health and restoration.

Seeing Beyond the Natural

2 Corinthians 4:18 reminds us, “So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” This perspective is essential for living in faith. The physical realm—the symptoms, the reports, the circumstances—is temporary. But God’s Word and His promises are eternal. They remain true no matter what our natural eyes perceive.

“Faith looks beyond what the eyes see and holds fast to what God has spoken.”

Focusing on the unseen means deliberately choosing to trust in God’s character and His Word. It means believing that His healing power is at work, even if you don’t see immediate results. This shift in focus allows you to stand firm, regardless of external circumstances.

Refusing Distractions and Doubts

Distractions and doubts often arise when we pay too much attention to the natural realm. A doctor’s report, lingering symptoms, or well-meaning but negative opinions from others can cause us to waver. To maintain faith, we must guard our hearts and minds.

“Don’t let temporary setbacks blind you to the eternal truth of God’s Word.”

Practical ways to avoid distractions include:

  • Daily meditation on scripture: Feed your spirit with healing verses so they become more real to you than what you see or feel.
  • Limit negative influences: Surround yourself with faith-filled people and testimonies, and avoid voices that create doubt.
  • Speak life over your situation: Confess God’s promises aloud, reinforcing your faith and blocking out negative thoughts.

By taking these steps, you keep your eyes fixed on God’s eternal truth rather than the temporary challenges you face.

Walking Steadfastly in Faith

Walking in faith requires consistency. It’s not just about believing once; it’s about maintaining that belief daily. Hebrews 10:23 says, “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful.” Holding unswervingly means refusing to let go of God’s promises, even when circumstances seem slow to change.

“Steadfast faith is the key to long-term victory.”

When you stay consistent—reading the Word, praying, worshiping, and speaking life—you build spiritual resilience. This resilience helps you stand strong during tough times, ensuring that your faith remains anchored to the truth of God’s Word rather than the shifting tides of the natural realm.

Living a Life of Unseen Victory

Fixing your eyes on the unseen isn’t just about receiving healing—it’s about living a victorious life. When you walk by faith and not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7), you experience freedom from fear, doubt, and anxiety. You begin to see life through the lens of God’s promises, trusting that His Word is more real than any temporary trial.

“Living by faith leads to a life of peace, joy, and unwavering confidence in God’s promises.”

Seeing With Eyes of Faith

Faith isn’t blind; it sees what others cannot. By focusing on the eternal truth of God’s Word and rejecting the distractions of the temporary, you can walk in the fullness of His promises. Keep your eyes fixed on what’s unseen, and you’ll find that His truth becomes the reality you live by every single day.
