DEEPER FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD
Wednesday 17th August 2022.
The wisdom, strength, and power to live a victorious life in this wicked world is drawn from a place of fellowship with God. The stronger/deeper the fellowship, the greater the victorious lifestyle you will display because our relevance comes from the place of intimacy with the Holy Spirit.
Daniel 11:32 ...; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out [great exploits.]
Daniel was speaking about an impartation of knowledge, wisdom, and understanding that is a result of intimacy with the Holy Spirit. There is a body of knowledge that comes by educating men through the preaching and teachings of men but there is also a knowing that is apprehended from the place of fellowship with the Holy Spirit; these two dimensions of knowledge are different.
The knowledge that transforms men and makes us as Jesus flows from a place of intimacy and fellowship with the Holy Spirit and not merely the intellectual ability of men. Therefore knowing fellowship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is what brings wealth to our lives making the riches of Christ tangible and a reality expressed through that knowledge.
Intellectual knowledge comes to us to direct us to a place where we go into deeper fellowship with the Holy Spirit and it becomes a heart-to-heart interface with the Spirit of God upon the tablets of our hearts.
2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,
Men like Moses who wrote the scriptures were neither lectured nor taught but they went into a place of deeper fellowship with God where God gave them that knowledge and they wrote it down. This place has not yet been exhausted, there are chapters and verses yet to be written and we can all enter into this place of deeper fellowship with God.
The Holy Spirit can lift you to that level of knowledge that comes from intimacy with God but there is a price for you to pay. You have to walk away from the destructions/limitations/ashes of the fires of yesterday.
There is an open chain for every generation. May we never go down like a generation that never brought forth fresh fire to their next generation.
John 7:37 On the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.
There is a calling from heaven but how far your hunger/thirst can take you is dependent on your fellowship with the Holy Spirit.
1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written: [" Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,] [Nor have entered into the heart of man] [The things which God has prepared for those who love Him."]
These dimensions are there in God because the God we serve cannot be exhausted but It takes hunger to draw wells from the heart of the Master. How big is your container? How much you will draw depends on the size of the vessel your using to draw. (Proverbs 2):5)
This is a generation that is drunk with intellectual and scientific knowledge, and their heads are so big but with very little, we have to show for what we know because merely having intellectual knowledge does not bring you to manifesting wisdom.
The teachings that we receive simply direct us to a place of communion with God and it is in this place where knowledge that transforms men is made manifest.
Philippians 3:8 Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ
Don't settle for what you know. Paul was ever on the run/pursue because what is ahead is greater and richer than what we have seen and behold. This is the driving force that keeps men seeking, praying, fasting, and paying a price in every generation.
There is a particular dimension of God that we must bring because the challenges and times and seasons are not the same. The comp
