I have learned from Peter that looking at the boisterous
wind will only cause me to sink (Matthew 14:30),
I have learned from Lot’s wife that looking behind might
result in me, becoming a pillar of salt (Genesis 19:26),
I have learned from Gehazi that looking at riches may lead
to leprosy (2 Kings 5: 20-25),
And I have learned from Pharaoh that looking to idols will
only result in plagues after plagues (Exodus 8-11).
Therefore,
I will keep the covenant that I made with my eyes and look only to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God (Hebrew 12:2).

Like Abraham who looked to Him and became the father of many
nations (Genesis 17:4),
Like Moses who looked and parted the red sea (Exodus 13;
15),
Like Joshua who looked and the sun stood still (Joshua
10: 13)
And like Paul and Silas who looked and from prison was set free
(Acts 16:25-26).
I will look to Jesus, I will lift up mine eyes unto the
hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made
heaven and earth (Psalms 121:1-2).
Looking to Him, brings healing to the body (Matthew 4:24),
Looking to Him, brings healing to the mind (Matthew 17:15),
Looking to Him, brings healing to the soul (Psalms 23:3)
And looking to Him, brings eternal life (John 3:16).
