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.

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...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...

Healing For Your Soul Wounds!

Malachi 4:2 Your soul is a vital part of your life. Your soul is part of who you are. Your soul needs to function well for things to go well with you. Your prosperity is linked to your soul. 3 John 2 Your soul is the decision making center of your life. God cares about the state of your soul. God created your soul and wants your soul to function well.

You need your will, your mind and your emotions to function properly and to be regarded as a well balanced human being. Your soul is valuable and the enemy wants it. Your soul is part of the reason you are saved and a part of God's kingdom. 2 Corinthians 4:3,4 We are spirits who have a soul and live in a body. When your soul is wounded As our natural bodies can be affected, so can our souls. As we can have physical wounds and sores caused b...
