CNN or HPN (Heaven’s Perspective News)?
The News which comes from Heaven is incomparable with the news from Earth -– they are from different worlds. The news from Earth is only the natural unspiritual view of happenings upon the Earth. The news from Heaven is much different; Its view of the same circumstances is complete and right and True being revealed from God’s perspective. They both see the same events but the perspectives are completely different. The view from Heaven will not only see the same circumstances but it will also see God’s Heart, God’s design, and His purpose for it; even how it fits in the eternal plan of things. The news of Earth cannot do this…It only reports what it sees, God also only reports what He sees but His view is accurate and complete and right!
In 2 Kings 6 we read about Elisha and his servant and the difference in the way they viewed the news around them. Dothan was surrounded by an army, chariots and horses from the king of Syria, which is all Elisha’s servant saw and he was terrified, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?” was his response when he saw them; Elisha saw from Heaven’s view! Oh, Elisha saw horses and chariots and a vast army but his focus was not on the one which his servant focused on…He saw God’s army surrounding the army of Syria! The rest of this account is incredible; directed by God and not at all the way man would naturally act towards his enemy; they (the Samaritans) fed the Syrians, sent them away and there was peace.
We can see from Heaven’s perspective too – if we want – but we must pay the price!
