Commentary from Pastor Michael White:
“I have made a covenant with my eyes…” – Job 31:1
Covenant starts with the eyes. Your heart then “walks after your eyes” (v 7). What you look at determines what you love. Where your eyes go, your heart will follow!
The best way to stay on the path God has for you is to keep your eyes on Jesus. Don’t let your eyes settle on anything or anyone else! A glance is so much more than just a glance. Are you married? Keep your eyes on your spouse. Are you in debt? Keep your eyes on God’s promise that you will “lend and not borrow” (Deut 28:12). Are you believing for God’s best for your life? Fix your eyes on Jesus and “feed on His faithfulness” (Ps 37:3)!
What you look at is what you embrace. Are you looking to Jesus? Or are you looking somewhere else?
Prayer:
Father, help me to fix my eyes on Jesus. You are all I need; and He is all I need to behold!
