K.P. Yohannan emphasizes the importance of fixing our eyes on Jesus, as exemplified by a man who, despite facing persecution, desires nothing more than to know Christ. He urges believers to cultivate a daily relationship with Jesus, focusing not on mere obedience but on understanding His heart and making Him central to our lives. Yohannan illustrates that our thoughts and the company we keep shape us, and by continually looking to Jesus, we will reflect His nature and experience His life within us. The call to 'Be Mine' from the Lord invites us to a deeper, more intimate walk with Him. Ultimately, the more we see Jesus in every aspect of our lives, the more we will become like Him.

One of the senior leaders in our ministry told me about a man who had been aggressively pursuing the Lord over the past decade. This man made this statement: “All I want is to know Jesus. If someone comes and arrests me, puts me in jail, beats me or kills me, I have no problem. In all this, all I’m longing for is to know Jesus. He is the only thing that matters in my life.” If we listen closely, we’ll hear the Lord calling out to our hearts, Be Mine. Let My life be yours. Please, don’t look for a quick fix. This call from the Lord is a daily walking with Him, being sensitive to Him, seeking to hear His voice, seeking to do His will, wanting to please Him, loving Him through our choices. It is not obedience to the letter of the law but rather understanding the heart of our Master and making that our very life. This is not a fill-in-the-blank test, but a life consumed with Him, His thoughts, His wishes. It is a nonstop, living, alive, growing relationship with the Creator of this world. My brothers and sisters, we must see Jesus—everywhere, in all of our life, in everything. Hebrews tells us, “Let us fix our eyes on Jesus” (Hebrews 12:2, niv). Have you ever studied a car that was passing you, and all of a sudden without realizing it, you actually started to steer toward the passing car? The more you dwell on negative things, the more negative you become. The more you dwell on positive thoughts, the more positive you become. The more time you spend with someone, the more you actually take on their mannerisms and vocabulary without even trying. We are called to be partakers of His nature (see 2 Peter 1:4). How do we do that? We see Jesus. Scripture says that when we see Him, we will be like Him (see 1 John 3:2). Just like the passing car, the thoughts we entertain, and the people we spend time with—if we look at Jesus and keep Him before us, we will go to Him. We will become like Him. The measure in which we’re able to see Him continually in all our circumstances, in the same measure we will experience Him and His life through us.
