Our Christian journey is similar to our national journey. In the natural, we all start off as babies, then grow to toddlers, then innocent children, then them terrible teens, to finally adulthood. We have the same process in our Christian experience. We all start out as babes, then the carnal minded stage, to eventually spiritual maturity. We are to go from level to level, from glory to glory.
At the Tabernacle, there was the outer court, the inner court, and then the Holy of Holies. The outer court is where we sometimes can get too comfortable staying. Yet there is so much more to it our experience than that! See once you know who you REALLY ARE IN CHRIST, you can go from begging God, to asking God, to decreeing in Jesus name. See once we start growing in our walk with God, there are levels to reach that goes beyond what the carnal mind can see.
There is a place in God where you no longer ask what you need, you decree what you need. There is a place in God where the angels are awaiting for your request so they can minister. There is a place in God where the eternal become more real than the external eye can see. There is a place in God where you will even look at your trials as a learning tool and not a moment of defeat. Do we truly believe Jesus died so that we can have eternal life? Do we truly believe we are to have life more abundantly?
Yet here’s the secret: holiness.
I beseech you therefore, brethren by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Romans 12:1
We are set apart. We are peculiar people. We are to be different. No, we can’t do anything, wear anything, or be a part of anything. We have to develop relationship with our God. Not from our mind, but from our hearts. Let’s strive for more spiritually things and less material things. Oh how I encourage you saints to get to know God from your heart. Whew, He will blow your mind!
