Ministry Of the Word (MOW): True Spirituality (TS).
Improving Our Spiritual Understanding
Memory Verse
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” (Ephesians 6:12).
Dearly Beloved
Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might ( Ephesians 6:10). Many people in the church have probably not had direct encounter with Satan, hence may not appreciate how much tricks and earthly wisdom he has. Don’t be deceived, Satan has some power and is merciless and extremely wicked. Deceit is his nature.
We need to be filled to overflowing with the Holy Spirit in to defeat Satan when we encounter him: “Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices” (2Corinthians 2:11).
Jesus has promised us life in abundance but we need spiritual understanding to keep the enemies of righteousness, progress and joy away.
We have the responsibility to arrest all wrong thoughts , and align them to the word of Christ; “…and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ” ( 2Corinthians 10:5). Ensure you put on the full armour of God (Ephesians 6:13-18). Ensure you flush out fear, anger, hatred, doubt, envy, bitterness and unforgiveness. Remember, we wrestle not against flesh and blood. Remember, the weapons of our warfare are not carnal. Please Do not compromise on righteousness. We are established in righteousness ( Isaiah 54:14).
The depth of your anointing is dependent on your love for righteousness and hatred for sin: “Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows” ( Hebrews 1:9).
Stay connected to JESUS, the Word . Be wise. Be enlightened. Align your thoughts to His (Jeremiah 29:11).
Keep your thoughts & mind positive/ healthy.
Ensure you think no evil against anyone.
Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit.
Be compassionate and kind to one another.
Prayer Point
Dear Father, we pray for everyone sincerely connected to your Word, that they will experience increasingly spiritual understanding in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
Blood of Jesus! Blood of Jesus!
Thank you JESUS for giving us spiritual understanding.
Happy Sunday/new week in the Lord to all.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
