Philemon 1:4-6 NKJV
[4] I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers, [5] hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints, [6] that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
Beloved,
When you understand and acknowledge what you have on your inside, your effectiveness is greatly boosted, Philemon 1: 6. People lose battles first on the inside before they collapse on the outside. When believers are struggling with self-confidence and identity issues, it is because they don’t have an understanding of what they have in Christ Jesus.
In this series, we will look at some things every believer have on their inside. It is your assignment as a believer to identify, acknowledge, activate, develop, and deploy them. You must also do all you can to protect to them.
The first component of a born-again spirit which we will consider today is a vital force of the spirit, Job 32:8 AMP. Like never before, now is the time to be aware your spirit man. The spirit on your inside is strong enough to change the course of your life. Your effectiveness in life is traceable first to your spirit, not your soul or body. That is why the enemy doesn’t want you to pay attention to your spirit. The devil likes it when you pay more attention to your body and mind and relegate your spirit.
Don’t forget that your spirit has a way of influencing your soul and your body. If your spirit is big, it doesn’t matter how small your body is, you can be effective. Don’t go around with a weak spirit. That spirit is a vital force in you, and it determines how far you can go in life.
The state of your life is a reflection of the health of your spirit, and the health of your spirit is a direct reflection of its response to the truth of God’s word. If your spirit fights the truth, your mind will not comprehend it. Don’t be a believer that has put a limit or a boundary to the truth his spirit will be opened to. Build your spirit to accept and process the truth of God’s word.
Beloved, your spirit sees into deepest part of you and your destiny, Proverbs 20:27. There is a dimension of you that is looking for manifestation, but it is only your spirit that can capture it, not your soul. It is how developed your spirit is that will determine the quality information you can have about your destiny and life. Pray more in the spirit to you have access to the deepest part of your destiny. Practice separation and you will become more aware of yourself in the spirit.
I commend you to God and to the word of His grace.
I call you blessed. I call you NATIONS.
