Flow With The Spirit (2)

 Hebrews 3:7,8

Flowing with the Spirit is not merely a common sense affair, there is nothing common about it.

Most people are not flowing with the Spirit.

Most are not in tune with the Spirit.

It is far from common.

It is not an intellectual affair, it is a Spirit affair that requires sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, confidence in knowing the Holy Spirit communicates and being aware of the presence of the Holy Spirit in your life.

To flow with the Spirit of God is to have a heart that picks up the Spirit's inspiration and direction.

A circumcised heart will do so.

Romans 2:28,29

The enemy wants us to have hardened hearts so that we will not be sensitive to the Spirit.

A hardened heart is a heart of stone.

It is a heart the Spirit cannot work with, it is a heart the Spirit cannot use or communicate with.

God is willing to work on our hearts if we allow Him.

Ezekiel 36:26,27

A heart of flesh is the type heart God wants us to have.

It is the kind of heart that can receive from the Lord, it is a heart the Spirit can work with.

A heart of flesh is a circumcised heart.

God is the Spirit, He is the Lord.

2 Corinthians 3:17

Jesus, while on earth as a man flowed with the Spirit by doing whatever He saw His Father do and obeying whatever He heard is His Father say.

Jesus saw and heard in the spirit.

John 5:19

John 14:31

We flow in the Spirit when we see in the spirit.

We flow in the Spirit when we hear in the spirit.

We flow with the Spirit when we obey what we see and hear from the Spirit.

A circumcised heart helps us to see and hear in the Spirit realm.

A circumcised heart helps us to be more aware of the Holy Spirit's presence and communication in our life.

Our heart is important to our Spirit walk.

The understanding within the believer is associated with ''eyes'' and ''heart''

Ephesians 1:18

To flow with the Spirit follow the instructions and inspiration the Spirit gives you.

If we are disobedient to the first instruction we receive or perceive from the Spirit , why should the Spirit of God give us a second instruction?

God is merciful and graceful, He is the God of the second chance.

If we have the habit of ignoring what we sense God is telling us, why should He keep talking to us?

Take baby steps for a start.

No matter how simple or little what God prompts you to do is, do it.

As you obey He will instruct and prompt you to take certain steps more.

As you get into the rhythm of obeying God you will find yourself flowing with the Spirit.

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus
