ADVANTAGE OF A BUILT LIFE (PART 2).
Pastor Obinna Michael
Jude 1: 20 (MSG). But you, dear friends, carefully build yourselves up in this most holy faith by praying in the Holy Spirit.
1 Corinthians 14: 4 (MSG). The one who prays using a private “prayer language” certainly gets a lot out of it, but proclaiming God’s truth to the church in its common language brings the whole church into growth and strength.
There are many evil you will escape because you are spiritually built. The reason we teach many the how of the word and praying in the Spirit is because we want them built spiritually, and to come into the enjoyment of these experiences.
A life that is built spiritually carries with it some advantages and one of them is this.
God will share his thoughts with you and you will understand them. Generally speaking, God talks to every of his children, but he does that through his written word, but there are those that carries the “ will of his mind” i.e he speaks to them outside of his word but they go back to his word to judge all things.
The difference between you and the person who participates in the conversation of the heavenly is in the “ building of their spirit man”. You can’t have a heart to heart talk with your two years old child because he or she won’t understand you. You can only play with them and answer to their needs, but to have a heart to heart conversation, you will wait for them to mature.
It is every grown up person can have a heart to heart conversation with, you will need to have one who is well grown and matured. This is why you can’t keep your secret with everybody, you need one who is matured. Anybody who can’t keep secret is not matured and built spiritually, such people God can’t trust them with kingdom secrets and life.
This is one of the advantage of a built life, you will have information from heaven about people, nation, families, etc. Desire to grow today.
Prayer:
Loving father, you are so good and I thank you for revealing your goodness and secrets to me. Thank you for showing me the advantages that abound in building myself spiritually. As I yield myself to this great task, help me Spirit of God in Jesus name. Amen.
Bible Reference: Jeremiah 33: 3, Isaiah 1: 1-3.
Wisdom Capsule:
Proverbs 15: 10 (MSG)………It’s a school of hard knocks for those who leave God’s path, a dead-end street for those who hate God’s rules.
