Habakkuk 1:13 (NRSVA)
Your eyes are too pure to behold evil, and you cannot look on wrongdoing; why do you look on the treacherous, and are silent when the wicked swallow those more righteous than they?
Television has been a staple of modern life for over half a century, with billions of people tuning in daily to be entertained, informed, and inspired. While television has revolutionized the way we consume media, its effects on our thinking and behaviour patterns are often overlooked. From shaping the worldview of its viewers to influencing their decision-making, the impact of television is profound and far-reaching. Television is exactly as its name implies: it is telling a vision. It is not coincidence that we refer to the content being broadcasted as programmes because that is precisely what TV is designed to do – program the mind.
The crucified life is for those who are all-in for God. They are unwilling to subject any part of their lives, minds, spirits, or bodies to anything that does not align with God’s will. The psalmist declared I will set no evil – worthless, destructive, evil, ungodly, wicked, unprofitable, good for nothing – thing before my eyes. Remember, God is experiencing His experiences through you. Every time you watch something, ask yourself, what spirit is being entertained? Remove your eyes from evil, and begin to look at things God would be entertained to see.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
My eyes are too pure to be entertained by useless things. I consecrate my eyes to the Lord for His use. Amen.
