Timeless Eternity

Timeless Eternity

Is this an oxymoron? Time is an earthly concept just like space. We are limited by time and space and so we orient our lives around this. Time is finite in that death is a reality and therefore an end of time for each one of us. Timeless means there is no concept of time. Eternity is where God resides and He has no beginning and no end. He therefore operates beyond time. Timeless eternity is therefore a dimension that is beyond time. God operates in this dimension. God is infinite while we are finite beings. We have a body and a soul and a spirit. Our spirit is housed in our body. Our spirit is connected with God who is spirit. We have the ability therefore to connect with God. However our mind limits us in many ways. Our mind dictates our actions and this is how we operate. Once we become alive in the spirit we enter a new dimension of timeless eternity. This is what is called the born-again experience (1 Peter 1:23). Our spirit was dead but now has been awakened from the dead and is alive in God. Jesus came to reconnect us with the Father. Sin blocked our ability to connect with God. Jesus’ death abolished the power of sin over us and reconnected us back to God.

In God now we have a new life. We are a new creation (2 Cor 5:17). The old has passed away, the new has come. We now live and operate in God's dimension of eternity where time is not a limiting factor. Each day is eternal as there is no yesterday or tomorrow. Today is the day to live fully as today is eternal. This blows our mind; but this is where we need to live, above the limitations of time and space. We have eternal life as His new creation. Death is no more an issue, for we have already died to the world (Col 2:20). We are now seated in heavenly places in Christ (Eph 2:6). We now operate as spirit beings  in the flesh just like Jesus did when He was in the flesh. We can do the same works as He did and greater works because He has gone to be with the Father (John 14:12). The Holy Spirit is in us now to enable us to speak and do according to His good pleasure. What a life, what a destiny we have in Him.

What Do You Really See?



We have eyes to see. But what do we really see? One sees a half cup of juice as half empty and another sees it as half full. Why the difference? This is because seeing is not just seeing a reflection like in a mirror but also involves perception. Our brain interprets what we see. This is called perception. We could see yet not perceive. We could see a picture but an artist can perceive things we do not see in the picture. To some the picture is just lines. To others it is a beautiful woman. Perception has to do with belief. We interpret based on our belief. If we believe something is wrong then our interpretation will dictate our perception. This is why we need to ensure that what we see and hear is true and not based on the opinions of others. Where can we find truth other than in the Bible?. The word of God is like water that washes our minds from tarnished thoughts and cleanses them (Eph 5:26). When we think pure thoughts then these are reflected in what we see. Fill your mind with sexual thoughts and everything appears to be sexual in nature. Fill your mind with thoughts of hatred and you will see hatred everywhere. 

Jesus said that the pure in heart will see God (Matt 5:8). He said we need to be like a little child and trust Him (Mark 10:15). The Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit (Rom 14:17) and all the other fruits of the Spirit. When we are filled with the fruits of the Spirit, then we will see wholeness, not disease and disorder. Our bodies will reflect His image and respond accordingly. We are being changed from glory to glory as we behold Him Who sits on the throne (2 Cor 3:18). God is in the business of change. We are being changed into the image of Christ. The clearer the reflection, the more we will see Christ’s image reflected in and through us. What do you see? Today come to Jesus and be changed by Holy Spirit into His image. This is the hope we have, and as we hope we will become.

Death Where Is Your Sting?



Death is a final destination for all of us on earth. We were taken out of dust and to dust we will return (Gen 3:19). There is no finality like death. Life stops. However Jesus promised us life. He died that we may live. He overcame death for us. God did not design death, only life. Sin caused death. The devil causes death because his mission is to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10). In the garden of Eden there was the tree of life which did not produce death. However the tree of the knowledge of good and evil produced death (Gen 2:17). When Adam tasted of this tree he ate of the fruit of death. 

 Jesus is our tree of life. When we eat at His table it produces life (John 6:54). He came to reverse the fruit of death and offers His life so that we may have eternal life. His Word and Spirit produce life. Our spirit was reborn and now we can enjoy the fruits of the Kingdom of God. When we eat of the tree of life, Jesus, we become like Him. His righteousness, peace and joy fill us to overflowing. Now we can live in the overflow to bless others. 

Death has lost its sting (1 Cor 15:55). Money cannot buy life. Only faith in the finished work of Jesus on the Cross can give life. What a holy transaction. This new life is available to all who will trust in Him. This is the message that the whole world needs to hear. Nothing else matters in this life, for it will end soon. Jesus promises eternal life and it begins here and now. This is the pearl of great price that money can't buy. Come and eat of the fruit of life today.

Are We Listening To God Or To Man?



During these days of turmoil we need an anchor. Our anchor is God. You will hear many voices vying for your attention but you need to listen to His voice. Until we know His voice, we will be tossed about like the waves - here, there and everywhere. We need to hear His voice. Jesus said My sheep hear My voice and follow Me. If He said it then He meant it. If we say we are not hearing His voice it makes Him a liar or we are hard of hearing. Ask the Holy Spirit to open your ears to hear Jesus. Our identity is in Him. He is the Word. Read His word for many hear Him through His written word. Some hear His audible voice. Most have a clear impression as a revelation in their spirit. I hear Him through revelation. A thought or word or sentence is suddenly down-loaded and my spirit says it is Him, like the title of this post. I then allow Him to flow through me with His thoughts, which I write down in my blog. Others may have visions or dreams, which I rarely have. We are all wired differently and God speaks to us in different ways. We need to be in His presence to hear Him and see Him and feel Him.

God has not left us as orphans. He has called us His beloved children. Like a loving Father He wants to commune with us. We need to give Him time and space for this. Jesus spent a lot of His time alone with His Father. He only did what He heard and saw His Father doing. We can also do the same. In these days God is calling us to an intimate time with Him. He will not abandon us. I yearn to hear Him daily. Nothing can replace His voice. Pray in tongues and then immediately speak in your own language and be amazed as what comes out. You will be amazed and blessed. His Spirit in us will show us the way. Trust Him completely. He will give us wisdom to know what to do. Be blessed.

What Is Your Narrative?

We all have a story. For some the story is full of positive experiences. For others full of fear, deprivation and loss. The main story line in your life determines the outcome of your life. Your story line determines your choices. Those who fear  and procrastinate  or avoid and delay making a decision. This delay can be costly. Those who have positive, successful stories take risks more often and so make greater breakthroughs in life. What does one do if the story line is negative? There is a way out.

Jesus came to rescue us. He saw our depraved state and realised we were helpless. We were bound to our sin and fallen state. He created us and felt responsible to help us get out of our dilemma. He came as the sinless Son of God to rescue us. He is able to change our story from helpless to helpful, from negative to positive, from fear to love. This is the salvation He has promised to all who will call on His Name to be saved. There is no other Name under heaven by which man can be saved. Call on Him today and be saved from your story to His story. His story is eternal. You will be assured a place in heaven. He has promised eternal life. Can you think of a better offer than this? Why delay your decision. I have tried it and it works. Jesus will come through for you. He is not mere man and He never lies. Surrender your life to Him and be saved from your negative story.

God Stop Or Crowd Stop

Most of us are impressed by crowds. We look at numbers to judge if something is worth our attention. God looks for the one. He is searching for those who will honour Him most of all. He is not interested in numbers. He sent His only begotten Son to save the world not crowds. He had just one witness. Jesus was completely surrendered to do His Father's will. The devil tried to distract Him with worldly honours and crowds but He stayed the course to the end. He was not distracted by worldly attractions because He knew His purpose was to die for fallen mankind. So also we need to know our mission is to die for Him. To die for Him is to die to the crowd mentality. God can use anyone who is prepared to die for His purpose. We can choose to die to our own will and do His will. Jesus said the way is narrow and straight and few choose to walk in it.

What is it to choose to walk in God's ways and not be influenced by the crowd? To walk in His narrow way is to leave all and to follow Him. He will lead you along a path that will appear to be lonely but is full of joy and peace. Jesus was at peace even though He was hurled abuse and slander. We also must be prepared to face opposition from the crowds when we choose to follow Him. This is the time when we have to choose. The stage is being prepared for the end time harvest of souls. We must be prepared to join the army of followers awaiting the coming of our King. Jesus said He would return the same way He went up. Those who are who waiting will be prepared to face any consequence for their destiny is heaven. Death has no power over us.  Jesus dealt the death blow to death on the Cross.  Now we can look forward to life everlasting. Let us choose today whom we follow, the crowds or Jesus. I choose to follow Jesus.

Thy Will Be Done On Earth As It Is In Heaven Mathew 6:10

This is the most powerful prayer we can pray on earth. What is it to pray His will? What is Gods will? Gods will is what is written in His word. So when we pray His word we pray His will to be done. How else can we know His will? God has given us His word so that we may know His will. Will is to do with purpose. His purpose is that His creation is made whole. Imagine the garden of Eden. Everything was in perfect harmony. There was no shame or disease. Adam and Eve were not aware that they were naked. Everything was transparent. The animals were at peace. There was abundance in everything. This was God's original will and intent for His creation. Once sin entered, the scene changed dramatically. All creation tuned against itself. Love turned inward is lust. The Spirit of rebellion entered the heart and spoils everything. We see this in every area of life. No one trusts anyone anymore. All is a facade of civility. This is what happens when sin is allowed to rule in our lives. The only hope is in redemption from sin and a return to the original design. How is this possible except through Jesus. 

Jesus came to redeem us from our sin trapped souls. In Him we are restored to communion with our Heavenly Father. Jesus came to give us the way to redemption by laying down His life as a sacrifice for sin. This redemption is for all who receive His word. If you confess with your mouth that He is your Lord and Saviour and believe in your heart that He is risen from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9. Now it is time to pray that many will join in this prayer for redemption. This is the only way His will, will be done on earth. He is the solution, we are the problem. God will redeem His people. He needs us to cooperate with Him to establish His Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. He has given man the authority on earth to establish His will. Will we pray? Jesus prayed and got the job done. Now it is our turn to pray. Much can be achieved through prayer when we partner with the hosts of heaven. His word spoken through our mouth can achieve much.

The Just Shall Live By Faith Romans 1:17

God created us by the word of His power. We were born from dust and He breathed life into us. Our spirit being now lives and has the ability to commune with God. We were born with this capacity to live in the spirit although we are housed in our body. Our body is temporary but our spirit is eternal. Our body is earthly but our spirit is unearthly. This means all of us have been created as spirit beings. We are spirit beings on an earthly journey. We were created with senses to makes sense of our world. We also have spiritual senses to sense the spirit world. Our spirit senses are operated by faith. Whoever comes to God must come by faith. We cannot know God through our physical senses for they are earthly. God is spirit. We can only know Him through our spirit. Understanding God through our physical senses is only partial like knowing about the person than knowing the person. God has made it possible to know Him personally through His Son Jesus.

God says that whoever comes to Him must come by faith. This means we must acknowledge Him and trust Him for who He says He is, the Creator of the whole Universe. He is also our Heavenly Father. Jesus came to make known His Father so that we too can know Him. It is only by faith that we can get to know Him and call Him Abba, Father. Faith is the evidence of what we hope for. It is not blind. It is based on what has been revealed through His Son. Now we need to trust Him to become His sons and daughters. We are made righteous when we trust Him to save us from our sin. Our sin blinded eyes will become son sighted eyes when we trust in Him. What a glorious hope we have in Him. Now we can live by faith in His finished work on the Cross and be assured of eternal life.

I Once Was Blind But Now I see

I recently had cataract surgery and the result is amazing. I realised that my vision was hazy before but now it is bright, clear and sharp. The spiritual parallel is that we too were blind once but when God revealed His salvation we began to see. How we need to pray for God's grace to manifest so that many more may see. The world is blind to their own sinfulness. Only the grace and mercy of God can open blind eyes. Even after our eyes are opened we only see in part. One day we will see wholly when we see Him as He is. As we continue on our journey and listen to His voice we see more clearly. He wants us to know the truth and the truth will set us free. His truth is in His word. His word was made flesh and dwelt amongst man. He now is seated in heaven to help us who continue in our struggles till we join Him in heaven. Be strong and never give in to the enemy who wants to take us to hell with him.

The key to keep steady and focussed is to listen to His voice and follow Him. There are so many voices that demand our attention. Distance yourself from these other voices and purpose to stay fixed on hearing His voice. Pray in tongues to quicken your spirit and sharpen your senses to His voice. When we follow Him we will be at peace. You will know His voice for He says my sheep hear my voice. 
You will wait till you hear Him. There is no restlessness but rest in Him. Your spirit will say amen to His voice. In this way other voices will be discerned and rejected. You will love to wait on Him and be led by Him. You will go in the background and He will become the foreground. This is our destiny that He should increase and we should decrease. We will become like Him when we see Him as He is.

Suffering. Good Or Bad?

Most of us don't like to suffer. We abhor suffering in us and in others. We want to escape from suffering. Why should we suffer? Why do bad things happen to good people? Why do babies suffer? Unfortunate accidents happen. Why do some people suffer more than others? Why did Jesus have to suffer and die? Suffering is part of our life journey. No one is devoid of suffering, some more than others. We cannot avoid suffering. We were born in sin and suffering is part of the sin problem. There was no suffering in the garden of Eden. There is no suffering in heaven. All of creation suffers. The sooner we accept this as part of our journey the easier it becomes to cope with suffering. A theology that does not include suffering is weak and does not do justice to the human dilemma. 

Suffering is the where we grow to face the challenges that come our way. The more mature will cope with it and see it as the way forward rather than backward. Illness, loss and pain come to help us to grow and mature. No one grows without pain. Anything of value comes through hard work and pain. What is of eternal value is built on a strong foundation. Therefore see suffering for what it is rather than deny it or blame it for your condition. There are many who have grown from rags to riches. These never gave up but fought through to break through. 

 Jesus suffered much. He faced the Cross. He said not my will but yours be done. At the Cross He said it is finished. He had run the course and completed His mission. Now we can face suffering with Him as He is with us all the way to give us victory. This suffering will pass and we will be the better for it.

Objectify Your Treasure, Talents, Tongue and Time

The challenge that we face in our journey on earth as spirit filled Christians is to overcome our fleshly desires and distractions. The flesh will always fight your spirit. Your spirit is redeemed but your flesh life needs to be sanctified. Paul exhorts us to renew our mind and be transformed Rom 12:1. This renewal occurs as we are filled in the Spirit and walk according to the Spirit. In this process we have to daily crucify the flesh and reckon it as dead. One way to do so is to distance yourself from its desires for power, fame and lusts. This is not easy to overcome in the flesh. How can flesh overcome flesh? This is why some have resorted to isolate themselves from the world and escape to monasteries. You cannot run away from the flesh. The world and the devil can only overcome you when you give into your desires. One way to deal with the fleshly desires is to make those desires into objects. Once the desire is seen as a object it stands apart from you. Attachment to desires of the flesh keep you bound to it. 

God gave us His Holy Spirit to help us in our weakness. He said my grace is sufficient to overcome your weakness. We must tap into this promise and avail of His strength in our weakness. When we surrender our weakness to Him, He strengthens us to overcome. This is a daily battle which must be fought in our mind. First make that evil desire an object than surrender it to Him. Jesus took all our infirmities upon Himself so we can be healed. As we walk in the light as He is in the light, His blood cleanses us from all sin. Come and be set free in your soul and live in the fullness of the Spirit.

The Meaning Of Life

We were born to live a life of meaning and purpose. However most of us are programmed from early childhood to conform to certain laws and regulations that keep us bound to worldly values and goals. This robs us of really knowing the purpose of living. We go through the motions of doing right but our goals are all earthly for fame and fortune. This drives us to achieve in the material world and reach our goals. Some of us have a better start in life than others and so get ahead in the game faster. Others achieve through blood, sweat and tears. One day we realise that these goals do not satisfy our yearning for meaning and fulfilment. Money and fame don't satisfy our deepest longings for meaning and purpose. We realise we have been trapped in a system to meet our carnal needs and desires. Some are driven to suicide at this point. Others accept that this is all one can do.  Some do change and follow their heart and find the true value of life is a life surrendered to. God.

Jesus came to show us the way to eternal life. We were made for eternity not just for this life. He said I am the way the truth and the life. Either He was deluded or what He said He is. I have found meaning and purpose in following Him. He said those who follow Him will live an abundant life John 10:10. I experience His abundance in down times and up times. He never changes although our circumstances may change. Many can testify with me that He is the way to living an abundant life. Taste and see that the Lord is good. Come and follow Him and live a fulfilled life for eternity.

The Cross And The Resurrection

God planned from the beginning free choice for man to live life on earth as it is in heaven. However Adam chose to eat of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil and lost his son ship. He became a slave to his affections and was cut off from fellowship with the Father. A curtain was drawn and he was forbidden to eat from the fruit of the tree of life. Thus we too have become bound to the flesh and its desires and find ourselves in a struggle for liberation from the flesh. God provided us with a choice by sending His son Jesus to die for us. He was the sacrificial lamb that was crucified for our sins. This once and for all sacrifice replaced the sacrifice of lambs in the Old Testament. His blood now is available to us much through His resurrection.

Resurrection makes it possible for the blood to continuously cleanse us from all sin and the power of sin. Now we can live a life free from the desires of the flesh. However we have to make a daily choice to avail of the power of the blood. We have to walk in the Spirit and not according to the flesh. The Cross was necessary for the resurrection. No Cross, no resurrection. We too must carry the cross daily to avail of the resurrection power. This power is available now for all who will call on His Name. Here lies the key to abundant living. We have access to a supernatural power that only the saints before the Cross could hope for. God led Israel to Canaan, the promised land. We now are in the land of milk and honey for eternity. Praise God for His salvation that sets us free from sin and death.

Kingdom Mindset

We all have different mindsets. Our mindset determines our outlook. A worldly mindset results in worldly goals. All our goals in life are to attain wealth and fame. A heavenly mindset is set in kingdom values and purpose. Who is king? If Jesus is King than He will be the one you serve. It is His Kingdom that is being established on earth as it is in heaven. We don't see it all at present because He has not returned yet. However we are to prepare for His soon coming return. We prepare just like John the Baptist prepared for the first coming of Christ. Repentance is key to this preparation. Repentance calls for a change in mindset from a worldly mindset to a heavenly mindset. What does this look like?

A heavenly or kingdom mindset is fixed on Jesus and His will. Just as Jesus sought to do His Fathers will on earth so also we must seek His will. Jesus spent much time in prayer to hear what His Father was up to. We too must spend time in prayer and do what we have been instructed to do. The disciples waited and did as the Holy Spirit led them. We have the same Holy Spirit within us to lead us. Fellowship with the Holy Spirit enables us to know His mind. We than can do as He leads us. Much fruit will be seen for we are led by Him and not the agenda of man. Till the church comes to the place of being led by the Holy Spirit nothing will change. Intimacy with the Holy Spirit is the key to a heavenly mindset. God help us to live in this kingdom mindset so that we hasten the coming of the Lord.

The Kingdom Of God And The Church



The church is a body of people under God that functions as the body of Christ of which He is the head. This was the original intent. However when we look at the church today we see a divided body  of believers who are not functioning as His body on earth. How did we get to this state? As it was in the early church divisions arose due to differences of opinion. The church had to contend with these divisions and most coped by separation into denominations based on interpretations and egocentric persuasions. We today are faced with the same dilemma and Satan is having a field day with the church. Divisions continue to abound and CHRIST is so divided that He is missing in most churches. There is a replacement church that looks nothing like what it is supposed to be. Many are confused by this and wonder if the church has any place in the Kingdom of God.
The Kingdom of God is alive and well. This Kingdom is non denominational and consists of believers who recognise Jesus as King and follow Him. The King resides in our heart and this is where His Kingdom is. Each believer is a temple of the living God. It is not a kingdom built with hands. It is a supernatural kingdom ordained by God and cared for by Him. This kingdom is eternal and nothing can overcome it. There is no disease or disorder in His Kingdom. As long as we are in the flesh we will only see partly but one day we will be whole when we see Him as He is. This is a shift in vision. We need to get out of our churches and begin to think like Kingdom people. Let us pray His Kingdom come, His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Amen.

Social Isolation And The Toll On Mental Health Of The Nation.

We are in imposed self isolation now to cope with the COVID 19 assault. This strategy appears to have had an effect in controlling the spread of the virus. However there is a secondary harmful effect on the mental health of the nation. Isolation is never good for mental health. Many withdraw in times of illness but sometimes isolation is also the cause of mental disorder. We as humans are social beings and need to be part of a community to feel loved and cared for. Isolation breaks this vital connection down and secondary effects kick in. We are unable to touch each other and touch is a powerful form of communication and bonding behaviour. A baby needs cuddles and this enhances bonding and attachment. Once this is broken trust becomes a major issue in development. Adults also need to be connected through touch. Isolation leads to a different life style which breeds disconnectedness. We need community and virtual communication and contact is insufficient to meet this human need for connection. If isolation becomes a pattern for long periods of time than this is difficult to repair. One adjusts to the new normal and remain isolated.
Churches, pubs and other social groups provide a setting for social engagement. Families sometimes are too fractious and may be explosive if no outlets are provided. This is a receipt for disaster. Governments have the responsibility to balance the strategy imposed to ensure that extreme actions do not lead to long term harm. Churches can provide for emotional and spiritual support during these times of stress. People turn to God for help during crises. It is important that churches and other places of worship are kept open during these times to provide comfort and support. Human contact is important just as air is vital for life. Prayer is a vital strategy to employ to defeat the curse of disease and evil. God always responds to repentant hearts and cries for help.

How Big Is Your God?

Your image of God determines what you can achieve. Jesus had a big vision of His Father and was totally surrendered to do His will on earth as it was in heaven. He was in close communion with His Father and nothing could distract him from this. His Father and He are one. We need to have this same vision of our Father in heaven. We are one in Jesus. We abide in Him and He abides in us. How big is our image of God our Father? When we come to the place where we see God is beyond measure, we come to a place of awe and wonder. God lives in us. How incomprehensible and awesome is that! He lives and moves in us. He abides in us. We abide in Him. Only a revelation of the Father can take us from the place of poverty to abundance.

How do we move from a poverty mentality to an abundance mentality. This shift occurs when we take our eyes off ourselves and what we see with our physical eyes to what we see with our spiritual eyes. The spirit within us can see and feel. All the senses of the spirit are awakened when we see in the spirit. The difference is that those sense experiences are enhanced and heavenly. Jesus lived on earth and saw His Father doing and did accordingly. We too must see what the Father is doing and follow Him. This is to do His will. We cannot do His will if we don't know what His will is. Come today to the place where you see Him with your spiritual eyes. This is possible when we walk in the light as He is in the light.

Break Free

Many of our battles are in the area of our soul, thoughts, feelings and will. Relationships are the main battle ground where our thoughts and feelings conflict with each other and the other person’s thoughts and feelings. This can sometimes lead to a break down in the relationship unless the relationship is strong enough to withstand these challenges. These battles of the flesh are common to all. Some are able to manage this better than others. Lots of regressive behaviours are stirred up and sometimes violent thoughts and feelings lead to violence towards the other. How to be in a relationship and not allow these thoughts and feelings to dominate you is a challenge. Jesus came to show us the way out of this dilemma.
He came to show us the way out of this dilemma by sending the Holy Spirit to help us. His Spirit is able to give us His thoughts and feelings in a situation. His thoughts and feelings are positive and bring healing and light. We don’t get consumed by our thoughts and feelings. We take the position of being dead in Him and alive in Him. We were crucified with Christ to those fleshly thoughts and feelings. Our will becomes His will. His will is to submit all to His Father in heaven. His peace and joy and love will keep you strong and steady in the midst of the storms. This is why you need to be filled in His Spirit and overflow in Him. Praying in tongues will help to stir up the spirit within you. The battle is His now and you can sit back and watch Him deal with people and situations. What a Saviour we have in Jesus who took our place to save us from our destructive selves. Be free today in Jesus Name and live an abundant life.

Spirit And Soul

The spirit of man is separate from his soul. The soul of man is being redeemed while the spirit is already redeemed. The spirit of man houses the Holy Spirit this is why we are called the temple of God. Now it is the spirit that needs to be enlarged as the soul is redeemed. The soul life is what keeps us from leading a full life in the spirit. The soul is being sanctified. The spirit of man connects with each other. The soul of man also connects with each other. Demons get attached to the soul and block the reception of the spirit. Demons have to be expelled from the soul so that the spirit can operate freely. As the soul is renewed through the transformation of the mind so the spirit becomes free to minister. Praying in tongues charges your spirit. It is the Holy Spirit within you that is charging your spirit as you pray in tongues. When your spirit is charged than you receive revelations that transform your mind. This transformation results in transforming your emotions and will. This is why you need to be always filled in the spirit so that you don’t walk according to the flesh. Transformation of the soul leads to freedom in the spirit. When you speak you release His Spirit that speaks to other spirits and eyes get opened. Only the Spirit can open blind eyes. Soul ministry only ministers to the soul and not the spirit. This is why the Word of God needs to be preached as it is spirit and life.Minister in the spirit and receive the fruits of the Spirit. Much will be revealed to you in the days to come as the Spirit opens up new realms of the Spirit to you. God’s Spirit reveals more as we walk in the Spirit and not after the flesh.

Our Spirit Is Omniscient

Our spirit is part of our triune being of spirit, soul and body. Our spirit is born again when we receive Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. His Spirit than comes to dwell in our spirit and we become one. His Spirit is the resurrected Spirit of Jesus Christ. We are now seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus. We have therefore ascended with Him. This means that we rule with Christ from heavenly places. Our body is still on earth but our spirit is with Christ who sits on the right hand of the Father. This is mind blowing to us carnal beings but this is what Jesus accomplished for us through his death, resurrection and ascension. Now we can operate in His resurrection power here on earth through His Spirit who dwells in us. If this is so why are we not seeing more of the miraculous in our midst as when Jesus walked on earth? The only impediment is our self. Self must identify with His death before resurrection life can be manifested in our life. This means that most of us are still bound in our flesh life and so we only experience some of His life. The more we surrender to Him the less of self will interfere with His presence.
In the spirit we can prevail over situations, disease, disorder and calamity. Jesus was always above His circumstances. When the storm came, He slept. He was in complete control over the storms in life. He could be in more than one place at any time. We too can be in different places in our spirit. We can be present when we pray for others in remotest parts of the world. How powerful will our intercessory prayers be when we can be present in situations far from us. In the spirit we can rule and reign because we exercise His authority on earth from heaven. There is evidence of translocation when saints are transported from one place to another in body and spirit. What a limitless scope we have in Him if only we would surrender and operate in His Spirit.
