Living in the Invisibles (Part 1): How to See the Unseen in Christ
What does it mean to live in the unseen realm—and can we truly see what is invisible?
In this profound teaching, we explore one of the most overlooked realities of the Christian life: that the invisible world is more real than the visible one. Drawing from powerful passages like Romans 8:24, Colossians 1, and Hebrews 11, this message challenges believers to shift their perspective—from living by what is seen to living by what is unseen.
Scripture tells us that “what is seen was made from what is not visible.”
This means the invisible realm is not secondary—it is foundational.
In this session, you’ll discover:
- Why faith is rooted in what cannot be seen
- How early believers lived from the unseen reality of Christ
- What it means to “see” Jesus Christ today as the visible expression of the invisible God
- How to begin speaking and living from spiritual reality rather than physical appearance
- Why the unseen realm carries greater truth than the visible world around us
This teaching invites you into something deeper than doctrine—it’s an invitation to practice a new way of seeing. Not imagining. Not pretending. But believing what God declares is already real.
You’ll also encounter a practical challenge: to begin speaking from the identity God has already given you in Christ—seeing yourself and others not by outward appearance, but by spiritual reality.
This is not about striving. It’s about learning to live by faith in what already is.
If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, identity, or spiritual dryness, this message offers a radically different approach:
Look away from what is visible… and begin living from what is unseen.
I am complete in Jesus Christ. I am perfectly holy. Now, I want to share with you something out of the book of Galatians that Pete and I got up here the other morning, and we just took it to the Lord and whatever. Please start by saying I’m a holy one, or I’m holy, or something right there, because that’s what the first-century Christians said. Good morning, holy one. They called one another holy one. They didn’t call one another saints. They called one another holy ones. “Saints” is a transliteration; it’s not a translation. But when you also find out you have many, many other things, you can start using those two. I have been something I am not now, but little by little, my Lord changed that situation completely. I’ve forgotten what I used to be, but I can tell you what I am now. I have been “holified” by God.
That’s just the word “sanctification”, by the way. The word sanctification should have come into the English language as you have been “holified” by Jesus Christ. If you would use that term, if you’re going to use the word justification, let’s scare them to death. While we’re doing something else in the Scripture, there is no such thing as the word believe. In Greek, there was “faith”, and there was the word “faithed”. Can you distinguish the different sounds? Faith and faithed. I faithed Him and was saved. I didn’t believe in Him and was saved. I “faithed” Him.
The word “believe” to me is a very weak word compared to the word “faithed” or even the word faith. So, we have to say I had faith in Jesus Christ and He saved me, or I believed “in” Him, or I believed “on” Him, and He saved me. But boy, to say I “faithed” Him that has a certain power to it. Perhaps it doesn’t right now to you, but if you take the word believe anytime you find it there and turn that into “faithed” – we’re going to “faith” the invisibles into physical reality. They believed. They faithed the invisibles. Brothers and sisters, we’re going to “faith” the invisibles. Praise the Lord.
