Fix Your Eyes on Jesus - (#1089 - Elim)

Send us a text

What does it truly mean to "fix our eyes on Jesus"—especially when we can’t physically see Him? This deep spiritual question lies at the center of today’s message, offering clarity and hope for those facing fear, anxiety, and uncertainty in a chaotic world.

In this powerful episode, Reverend Ben Cooper unpacks the profound truth found in John’s Gospel: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” This changes everything. The Bible is not just a book about God—it’s a living encounter with Christ. When we open Scripture, we are fixing our eyes on Jesus Himself.

As financial pressures mount, war looms in the Middle East, and personal fears escalate, many find themselves overwhelmed. But the Word of God offers refuge. Hebrews 12:2 urges us to “look unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith,” and Philippians 4:6 reminds us to “be anxious for nothing.” These scriptures aren't poetic metaphors—they’re weapons of peace, guiding us to supernatural calm in the storm.

This message challenges our view of church itself. “It’s not about getting into the building—it’s about getting into the Word,” says Cooper. The call is clear: move beyond performance religion and step into an intimate relationship with Christ through Scripture. Whether you're at home, commuting, or walking through a valley, Jesus is present in the Word, waiting to meet you.

We’re also reminded of our call to pray for Israel and the Middle East, understanding that today’s headlines align with biblical prophecy, not as cause for fear, but confirmation that God’s hand is moving in history.

This episode is both a pastoral comfort and a prophetic alarm—urging us to re-center on what matters: Jesus, the living Word. If you're feeling anxious, disillusioned with church culture, or spiritually dry, this message is a timely call to return to the source of hope.

The Word is your anchor. Open it, and see the face of Christ.
