How to See Jesus | Why Trying Harder May Be Keeping You From Seeing Clearly

How to see Jesus: Why trying harder may be keeping you from seeing clearly. You love Jesus, spend time in prayer, and want to experience His presence more deeply. But could the way you are pursuing Him be making it harder to recognize what He has already made available? In this Fresh Oil teaching, Chris Garcia explores developing spiritual sight through prayer, Scripture, and communion with God. Discover how your understanding of Jesus, your identity in Christ, and your approach to prayer can shape the way you recognize His presence. If you have been asking how to see Jesus, how to spend time with God, or how to know Jesus more deeply, this message invites you to reconsider what drawing closer to Him really means. What if trying harder is not the answer you have been looking for? Watch the teaching and join us for extended prayer and worship as we seek a deeper relationship with Jesus.
