It is no more mere revelation, that human are frail, fragile and weak. They are dependent on something other than themselves. Some look to some kind of force, they call it the universe. Some have personal gods or idols. Some have taken advantage of powers beyond the material realms. Anyone whose framework of living is only within the reality of this natural realm is hadicapped, and the one who has taken advantage of power beyond this realm is at a higher advantage than the person.
Let's delve into the power available in the christian life and why we need to explore this power. when you gave your christ, there is life you receive. This is a higher kind of life. A spirit life. The bible says the spirit is life because of righteousness. Because of the holy ghost you receive at new birth experience. You are introduced to a higher kind of life. In Greek it is called the zoe. The bible also says whoever has this son, has this life. It is uncreated life of God. It is eternal.
As astronaunt explore space. We ought to explore this life, There is life in our spirit because the holy ghost in us. The power available in there is higher than any power the world has ever known. This new life, Jesus testifies to Nicodemus according John 3:3. The possibility, he can see, perceived into reality, realm of God. Just as immediately a child is born, he has eye to see the natural world. So at new birth, our spiritual sense are active to see into God's realm. But we have not taken advantage of this power in us. There many possibilities in the power of God that resides in us. we can only enjoy this possibilities to the degree we have explore the life of God in our spirit.
Here are few possibilities from scriptures
Peace and Joy in the midst chaos
When take full potential of what we receive at new birth. We become unshakable and are not easily crush by the storms of life or the weight of what the enemy thrown at us. we will be more alive, joyful and peaceful and have more faith in the midst of the storm, viscitudes instead been more depressed, fearful and anxious.
The Apostles, the early church went through persecution, yet were joyful in the midst of persecution
Acts 5:40-42 (KJV) And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
The bible says the joy of the Lord is my strength, The bible also talk about a peace of God that passeth all understanding and not one the world giveth.
All this are possible for christian that take advantage of the spirit life in their spirit and walk by the spirit.
Freedom from addiction
Sometimes we read a lot of book. But we are stil battling addictions. we make resolve but still struggle. The issue might not be with doctrine. But we need spiritual empowerment, we might need to exercise our spirit frequently. The more you ignore the possibility in the life of God In your spirit. The more the you live a life of struggle.
Proverbs 18:14 (KJV)
The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?
2 Corinthians 4:16 (KJV)
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
You need to invest in your spirit man daily. It need to be strong. You need to explore the possibility of the life in your spirit man. If you want to live life above infirmities and addiction. As we go further, we will learn how you can invest in your spirit man. Sometimes until you comes to the consciousness that you are a bag of infirmities. You might not see the need to invest in your spirt man.
Romans 8:1-2 (KJV)
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Romans 7:25 (KJV)
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
The flesh will always serve the law of sin, but there is another law Of spirit available to those who walk by the spirit and has made them free from the law of sin. just like a flying airplane can not be affected by the law of gravity because it is operating by another law.
Exploit
Jesus did so much exploit not because he was God in the flesh, but because as the son of Man, he was anoited by the holy ghost and power
Acts 10:38 (KJV) How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
Not Just that he was anoited, he lived by the spirit of God, He had exercised his spirit enough to know what God was doing and saying at every moment. His life was a expression of the Father spirit in him.
John 5:19 (KJV) Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
John 14:10 (KJV) Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works
The same with Paul, he did exploit for God, becuase it was his inner man that governed his way of living.
Galatians 2:20 (KJV) I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
And this was the same with many men in the bible like philip the evagelist, Apostle peter e.t.c. if you read the God's general by roberts liardon. it filled with men and women that did exploit for God like
William J. Seymour, the son of ex-slave, who turned a tiny horse table on Azusa Street, Los Angeles, into an internationally famous center of revival
Aimee Semple McPherson, the glamourous and flamboyant founder of the Foursquare Church and the nation’s first Christian radio station Smith Wigglesworth, the plumber who read no book but the Bible—and raised the dead! Kathryn Kuhlman, the beloved evangelist whose miracle-filled meetings drew millions of skeptics to faith
my question to you what will you do with the holy Ghost inside of your spirit? will you let him sleep? all will you exercise your spirit to explore the potential you carry as a result of the holy ghost indwelling in your spirit.
Discernment
2 Corinthians 5:16 (KJV)
Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
we have let people into our lives we should have not given access to, people that later hurt us. if we can exercise our spirit enough, we will easily discern people by the spirit.
Conclusion
There is a lot we carry inside our spirit man, we might never know if we don't explore it. read this article How to invest in your spirit
