that is a part of spiritual death if you cannot hear the word from God. You don’t see it physically but you know that it has departed from you and that is from my own personal experience.
Does the wind know when it has lost part of its force? Surely we can tell when it is not as strong as it once was, and so it is with the Spirit. It’s strength comes from a place that we cannot see. Like flowers get there strength from the sun but you don’t actually see the energy transferred from the sun to the flower. Our spirits get there charging from being connected the one who breathed it into us. Sit back and enjoy the breeze let your spirit flow freely so that you are not hindering it. Hindering it will hinder the answers to the questions that you have, to the prayers you have prayed and to the deliverance that we all so badly need. Yes we all need deliverance from something, and if it’s not us then it’s a friend or a relative.
We may be free physically but we are bound by love and the commandments to help those who are in need whether it is a brother, neighbor, friend or foe. So whether you’re in bondage to something or not, if there is someone who needs your help you are bound to help deliver that person. We must teach them how to be delivered the same way that we were taught. It’s like the saying I can give you some fish to eat but its better to teach you how to fish for yourself or yes I will pray for you but it is better to teach you how to pray for yourself.
We are like the rain and snow that fall from heaven. They do not return there but water the earth and make it bring forth and bud, that is who we are. We will no longer return to our former states of mind, but the Word that was given to us we will take to others to make them bring forth good fruits. We have to be more spiritually minded and not so self centered. Our job is to participate in making his enemy his foot stool and this starts with a mindset. These verses will help you obtain that mindset.
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.”
Romans 8:37-39
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Mathew 6:31-34
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Luke 12:32
“Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
1 Corinthians 2:9-10
But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
Isaiah 55:10
For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater
Hebrews 10:12-13
But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God, from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool.
Show Me What You See
I was inquiring or praying to God to put his will within me. He said “no”. He told me that I must obey his word which will then manifest his will in my life. This was a very important word that He sent to me because I was asking him to do something for me that starts out spiritual but turns into a physical thing. I wanted Him to turn his word to me into a physical thing but He said that when he sends his word it is already done but I must be obedient to that word to get the desired result and this is something that I already knew, so was I being lazy? Maybe. Was I trying to manipulate the Kingdom of God? This was not my intention.
My desire was for Him to manifest his word within me but that requires obedience to the word or instructions that were given. My intentions were not wrong but my theory was. I could see what I wanted done to my life but this takes an effort on my part. Whatever word God has already sent has already manifested, but it requires action on our part. See this is where big boundaries can be broken. God says to keep His word in your heart and do not let them depart from your mouth and it will make your way prosperous.
We can keep praying, begging and complaining to God but that is not what He said would move the mountain. Here is what I have found out on solving issues.
1. Pray to God honestly about your issues (which He already knows) give credit to Him for being the most high and that He has all wisdom.
2. Ask for his word or guidance in the situation.
3. Ask Him to reveal important issues to you about the situation.
4. State you claim, find a scripture where He promises to deliver you from your situation.
5. Do not debate with God, claiming if He will do this, then you will do this.
6. Praise Him for victory through him before you even see any results.
7. Do not return to your former thoughts or speech (meaning continuing the same statements) ex: I cannot do this, nothing ever goes my way, or they always treat me unfairly.
8. Speak the promise, what ever claim or scripture you professed before God keep speaking it out loud with the voice of victory.
His Word is His Image
Don’t make it complicated. It is what He said it is. Watermelons don’t sometimes taste like apples nor can you plant an apple seed to get a watermelon. Everything produces after its own kind. Do your kids look like you, maybe your spouse or there grandparents? This is a law. It is simple Jesus said that the sower sows the word. This is part of seed time and harvest, who ever sows the word sparingly shall reap from the word in the same manner.
What words have you been sowing or saying? And what do you do with the Word that has been sown into you. Let me send you on a blind date. The person that you are meeting will be at a round table at the restaurant on Main St. Downtown. Good luck right? Well, hold to that image in your mind. Date number two you will be meeting at 6:00 PM Thursday at 711 Main St. they will be sitting at table # 2 wearing all white. You are more likely to connect with the intended individual with the vision or image given in date #2.
Here is the difference, the image that you have of the first date is like your vision or revelation when you have no faith in the word given. You won’t even want to look for the promise or the desired result He sent his word for. You cannot possess anything unless you receive it. As for the second date everything is much clearer because you have received the word therefore you kept your ear open for instruction, you heard the details then acted on the word given therefore prosperous or desired result.
To receive the Word is to go with the grain not to receive the Word is to go against the grain. When He sends his word you don’t have many options. Take it, receive it and ask that it be in your life according to his will. Ask for wisdom on the matter. It is well stated in his word that he who asks God for wisdom shall receive it if he has faith. Don’t ask of God with a question mark. Saying Lord, if it be your will, can you heal me or send wisdom? He has not given his word for ifs.
The word is not and was not given for negotiation it is what He said it is. Do not dilute his word with your lack of faith.
Mark 4:13-14
