YOUR SPIRIT IS THE LAMP

The spirit of man [that factor in human personality which proceeds immediately from God] is the lamp of the Lord, searching all his innermost parts
Proverbs 20:27 AMP
Main Text:

I welcome you to the place of divine encounter where God’s goodness is awaiting you. Beloved, you already have God’s Spirit to achieve much more in this year of the prevailing Word. The Lord instructed Simon Peter in Luke 5: 4 to launch out into the deep which he did. You too can trust the Word of God to take you into the supernatural in this 2018. 

The reason God wants you to nurture and develop your spirit after you’re born again is that it’s only through your spirit that you can make contact with Him. God doesn’t appeal to the human mind or the senses; He communicates and leads you through your spirit. When a man is born again, he receives the life and nature of God into his spirit. Therefore, the changes that are later observed in his soul and body are initiated from his spirit. The Bible says that the spirit of man is the candle of the Lord (Proverbs 20:27).

The light of God is not in your mind but in your spirit. Your spirit is where the Word of God illuminates (Psalm 18:28). The human spirit feeds on the Word of God. You need to constantly feed and nurture your mind with the Word of God.

The eyes of your understanding have been flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which God has called you, and grasp the immensity of His glorious inheritance for you

When everything and everyone else says it’s time to give up, that’s when it’s time to go up with God. When you obey Him, He’ll take the impossible and turn it into a miracle. He’s taking you down a path of victory and increase. Just like Peter, you’ll be amazed at what will happen when you follow His commands, through the employment of the prevailing Word of God!

Prayer: I will not be discouraged to try again.
