Chpt 19 – Time to Leave!
When we make Jesus Christ Lord of our life by truly believing on Him, an instantaneous change takes place. This change occurs in our spirit; not our flesh – body or soul. Whether the change ever manifests itself in our physical realm depends on what we think.
The only way we’ll experience the power of God within us is to walk in the spirit. Believing to raise someone from the dead goes beyond just living a good life. We must believe in something that has no proof or evidence in the physical realm whatsoever. We have to get beyond the physical and acknowledge that there is a spiritual world. As we recognize our true power and believe, the spiritual realm will become more real to us than the physical.
This applies to prosperity too! If we stay in the spirit, fixed on what His Word says, we’ll be able to see ourselves prosperous when everyone else tries to repossess our house, car, etc. As we hold on to God’s Word, our spirit will overcome our flesh and break its dominion. That’s when we’ll see the Word manifest!
Peace
We can be spiritually minded! Whatever we continually think on will dominate us (Prov. 23:7). If it’s who we are and what we have in Christ, then that’s what will eventually manifest itself in our physical life. Right now in our spirit, we are exactly the way we’ll be throughout eternity (1 Jn. 4:17) The change of our spirit at salvation was total, complete and automatic! Whether we ever see our true spiritual potential released into our physical life or not depends on what we think (Rom. 12:2). If we dominate ourselves with the truths of God’s Word and get beyond the natural limitations of our 5 senses, we can start releasing the supernatural life that’s inside us.
We’ll be able to experience a peace that passes understanding. No matter what, we’ll enjoy God’s supernatural peace as long as we stay focused on the Word! “And the peace of God, which passes all understanding,….” (Phil. 4:7).
On the night before His crucifixion, Jesus told His disciples, “Let not your heart be troubled….” (John 14:1) Jesus had given His disciples His Word. He’d told them many ties, “I’ll be crucified but I’ll rise again on the third day.”
If they had meditated on and dominated themselves by what Jesus had say, they would have released the supernatural peace of God they needed for that trying situation.
What Will You Think?
If we want to experience God’s best, we must understand these truths concerning Spirit, Soul & Body. We have unlimited potential! BUT it’s all in the spirit.
The victory God’s given us isn’t in our flesh. It’s in the part of us that’s been born again. Choose to yield to the spirit instead of the flesh.
Through God’s Word, concentrate on seeing who we are in Christ. Spend less time feeding the flesh and focus on the spirit instead.
Surround ourselves with people who speak faith, are positive, and center in on the potential we have in Christ. We’ll develop an entire mentality based on our new identity in Christ as we dominate ourselves with what we see in the spiritual mirror of God’s Word.
Nothing can separate us from God’s love because our born-again spirit has been sanctified and perfected forever. God is a Spirit and He sees us in the spirit (John 4:24). He fellowships with us Spirit to born-again spirit. God doesn’t give us what we deserve based on our thoughts and physical actions in our flesh; rather, He deals with us in the spirit realm. That’s why He’ll receive us at any time, in any condition – we’re His beloved child!
We’re constantly being fed information drawn in one of two directions – the flesh or the spirit (Gal. 5:17). The Holy Spirit always endeavors to draw us toward God and remind us of our new identity in Christ! What we continually think on is what we’ll experience (Prov. 23:7).
This understanding of Spirit, Soul and Body should motivate us to aggressively pursue renewing our mind to God’s Word – a process that’ll continue for the rest of our life!
Soak Your Mind
Soak your mind in these truths that God has spoken. We’re still in the process of renewing my mind to them. Over time, He’s been expanding, developing and giving us even more understanding. “Brethren, I count no myself to have apprehended: but this one thing….” (Phil. 3:13-14)
Don’t be discouraged! We’re not saying you have to wait a long time before you see any results. We just want you to know that until you see Him face to face, you never arrive, you just leave.
If the Lord has spoken to you through this teaching, you need to leave right now! Start being dominated by your born-again spirit. Discover the realities concerning who you are in the spirit and let them control you! When you do, you’ll experience life and peace. It really is that simple!
Through renewing your mind to God’s Word, you can become spiritually minded! The good news is that God wants you to fully understand and walk in the truths revealed in this study more than you do! He’ll faithfully do His part IF you’ll just head in that direction acknowledging that “God, it’s going to take a miracle to renew my mind! It’s so used to being dominated by the flesh. I’m really going to need Your help!” The Holy Spirit will reveal to you who you are in Christ. He’ll show you Jesus, spiritual truth and reality. It just takes commitment and effort on your part to focus on the Word and the spirit.
Begin Now
In light of what you’ve read, I encourage you to pray out loud the following prayer from your heart:
“Father, I open my heart to the Holy Spirit to continue revealing these truths to me. I recognize that this is a process and not just a one-time thing. Therefore, I ask You to give me greater revelation of Spirit, Soul and Body throughout the rest of my life.
“As I apply what You’ve shown me, please encourage me with some quick results. I want to establish new patterns of walking by the spirit so I can live a full and effective life in You.”As I apply what You’ve shown me, please encourage me with some quick results. I want to establish new patterns of walking by the spirit so I can live a full and effective life in You.
“Thank You for bringing these truths to my remembrance when I need them. Thank You for helping me to share them with others so they too can break free from their flesh’s dominion. Thank You for setting me free and using me to set many others free too! I love You, Father! Amen.”
