The Spirit of the World
But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world. Those people belong to this world, so they speak from the world’s viewpoint, and the world listens to them.
1 John 4:4-5 NLT

Everything we do on earth is backed by a spirit.
The spirit is powerful anywhere apart from the earth. It is true we have blood, heart and all other bodies but the spirit direct it's part.
You need a body to function and authorise on earth.
How come the world is filled with variety. You will hear some people's philosophy and it will be total mismatch. While others seems to agree.
These variety are a product of the spirit.
The world system is governed by a Spirit.
The bible did not deny the world has a spirit.
But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world. Those people belong to this world, so they speak from the world’s viewpoint, and the world listens to them.
1 John 4:4-5 NLT
Can I butress a point: no matter the career or profession you belong to, some people will not listen to you or want to do business with you. Why? Because you don't speak the language of the world.
The Spirit has different languages. You will understand the one you know, learn and speak.
Isaiah showed us the Spirit of the World and it purpose.
“In the place of the dead there is excitement over your arrival. The spirits of world leaders and mighty kings long dead stand up to see you. With one voice they all cry out, ‘Now you are as weak as we are! Your might and power were buried with you. The sound of the harp in your palace has ceased. Now maggots are your sheet, and worms your blanket.’ “How you are fallen from heaven, O shining star, son of the morning! You have been thrown down to the earth, you who destroyed the nations of the world. For you said to yourself, ‘I will ascend to heaven and set my throne above God’s stars. I will preside on the mountain of the gods far away in the north. I will climb to the highest heavens and be like the Most High.’ Instead, you will be brought down to the place of the dead, down to its lowest depths.
Isaiah 14:9-15 NLT
