Revelation 4:8 (KJV)
“And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.”
These six winged creatures are Seraphim’s; they were embroidered into the fabric of the veil separating the holy and the most holy place. The fabric was eighteen inches thick; historians say it would have taken two teams of ...oxen tied to it pulling in opposite directions to rip it. This give us a clue as to how thick the flesh is between us and His presence.
These creatures are all about the presence of God. Notice, they are full of eyes within and they rest not day and night. After being in the presence of God 24/7 one is bound to grow eyeballs in places you would never dream could be. “…eyes within…” indicate an introspective view matchless beyond human comprehension.
We cannot look into God and God not look into us; His presence causes us to see ourselves in ways could not be seen otherwise. Isaiah is a great example of this, “…I am a man of unclean lips…”
Furthermore, He is the God of our “was,” our "is,” and our “is to come.” Spiritually speaking, a consistent exposure to His presence will give us a perspective on all that has been, that is, and that is to come. Therefore, this information is not as much about our gifting as it is our time spent with God.
Consequently, seeing people as God sees them is a result of seeing ourselves as God sees us. Eye’s within give greater vision to the eye’s looking out.
