Walk in Wisdom

Walk in Wisdom

Ephesians 1:17:
“..that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the SPIRIT OF WISDOM and revelation in the knowledge of Him,”
The Amplified translation refers to wisdom in this verse as “insight,” the ability to see inside, the ability to see beyond the physical. The best definition of wisdom I have come across is *”insight into reality.”* Reality is spiritual, not physical. What we experience in the physical is only but a shadow of the spiritual reality. For instance, if someone is called Alex, the real Alex is not the physical body we see, the real Alex is the spirit person we don’t see. That is why when someone dies we say they have left us yet we can see the body. The body is not the real person, the unseen spirit self is the real person. So when the spirit self leaves, the body is considered dead as the owner of the body, the spirit self, has left. So the unseen spirit person is the reality – is the real person, the body is just a shadow of the real person. This is how life is. Many are concerned with the the physical that we see, yet the physical is only a shadow. The spiritual is the reality. God instructs in 2 Corinthians 5:7 to walk by faith and not by sight. He wants us not to walk by the physical that we see, but to walk by faith which means to walk by the spiritual reality we don’t see because though unseen, the spiritual is the ultimate reality, the physical is just a shadow. Many believers are suffering because they live by what they see in the physical and ignore the spiritual which is the reality. What you are experiencing in your marriage, in your health, in your material needs – is only physical which is but a shadow. God wants you to live by the spiritual then you will change the physical. That’s why Paul was praying for every Christian to have “the spirit of wisdom” which is “the spirit of insight into reality.” The spirit that enables you to see beyond the physical into the spiritual which is the reality. This is the beginning of walking in wisdom. You have insight into mysteries as you function in the realm of the spirit. What goes on in the physical doesn’t move you as you live beyond the physical. You become a master of circumstances. This is the blessing of our divine life in Christ, glory to God.

Everything You Need For Life Is Already Available:

Everything You Need For Life Is Already Available:

2 Peter 1:3
“as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,”
When we are born again, we are born of God and therefore we receive the spirit life of God. So the Bible commands us to live the spirit life. The spirit life is a life of rest in Christ. The spirit life is a life of dominion. In the spirit, we live for God and therefore everything we need for life and for our God-given purpose has been provided for. Our opening verse says God *”has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness”*.God has already made available everything we need for this life. It is like when you leave home going to town. Before you leave your house, the street you will walk on is already there. The parking lot is already there. The restaurant you will go for lunch is already there. While in your house you cannot see them but they are already there. When you get there you will find them there. In the same way, everything you need for life is already there. As you walk on the street of divine life you will just walk into it as God has everything worked out for you. Don’t live a life of trying to get what you already have. You have divine life. You have divine health. You have divine wealth. Begin to affirm you have them. Don’t live a need based Christianity, live for God confidently knowing He has everything worked out for you. At the right moment as long as you keep walking in His word, you will just walk into it, glory to God. Without this mentality, the enemy will keep you unsettled and you will never be able to live the spirit life of dominion. But with this mindset, you live above the pressures and the anxieties of this life as the Spirit guides you. You will live a life of faith in God and with faith you can never miss what God already has for you glory be to God.

Be Filled With The Spirit

Be Filled With The Spirit

Ephesians 5:18 AMP: Do not get drunk with wine, for that is wickedness (corruption, stupidity), BUT BE filled WITH THE [HOLY] SPIRIT and CONSTANTLY GUIDED BY HIM.
Being filled with the Holy Spirit is not for Pastors and Preachers. It is not for some Christians and not for some. It is for every born again believer. You cannot be born again without the Holy Spirit. You cannot live the Christian life without the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit, you are just an ordinary natural human being. It is the Holy Spirit that produces the divine life and nature in us. So we are instructed in our opening verse to be constantly filled with the Holy Spirit and be guided by Him. The best example of being filled with the Holy Spirit is the sail on a boat. The ancient boats never had an engine. They were driven by winds. They would mount the sail vertically on the boat and the boat will move as a result of the sea winds filling the sail and pushing the boat forward. So the winds were actually driving & controlling the movements of the boat. Jesus said in John 3:8 *”The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”* So everyone who is born again must be filled with the Holy Spirit and be yielded to Him to allow Him to control and guide your life. It is surrendering the steering wheel of your life to God by allowing the Holy Spirit to guide you. Many believers are still controlled by the anger, desires, self-will, attitudes and personal emotions. This will definitely limit your life as your life will be rising and falling. You have to lay down your self-life and be filled with the Holy Spirit. This is the secret to a Victorious, overcoming, successful Christian life with consistent prosperity. So be filled with the Holy Spirit for without the Him, you can do nothing.

The Word of God is the foundation of Divine Life

The Word of God is the foundation of Divine Life

 
*Genesis 2:16: And the Lord God COMMANDED THE MAN, SAYING that , “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;*
Genesis 2:7 clearly reveals God gave mankind His own divine life. This divine life made Adam to be above death. Notice in Genesis 2:17, God said “if you eat of the tree you will surely die.” This means as long as Adam lived by holding on to the “sayings” of God, death had no power over him. If death had no power over him, obviously sickness also had no power over him. This is called the divine life. The divine life is the life of God. Sickness and disease and even death has no power over this life of God. When you received Jesus Christ, you received this life. However, many believers don’t know how to live this life. Genesis 2:16 says “the Lord COMMANDED the man SAYING. ..” This means divine life is lived by the COMMANDS and the SAYINGS of God or simply put, THE WORD OF GOD. Divine Life is lived by living the Word. Man was created to live by the Word of God. Jesus said *”Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”*(Mathew 4:4). As long as Adam lived by the Word, he was above sickness and even death. However, Genesis 3:4 says “And the serpent SAID to the woman.” Satan brought another word. Unfortunately, man rejected God’s word and chose Satans word and consequently lost the divine life which marked the beginning of all the suffering today. This means any believer can choose to live the divine life by simply choosing to live by the Word of God.
