For all things belong to you, whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come… all things belong to you, and you belong to Christ; and Christ belongs to God. – 1 Corinthians 3:21-23. The Father has put ALL things within us when He gave us His Spirit. We are complete IN Him… He made us One with ALL of Him. There is nothing lacking in us. The New Man doesn’t receive things from outside of himself anymore.
…I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to observe My ordinances. – Ezekiel 36:26-27 (KJV) A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. – 2Corinthians 5:17.
The Bible is not given to us as simply study material… it’s supposed to change our reality!
Studying the Bible to get information, or to preach an interesting Sunday message isn’t going to change you… it’ll just give you head knowledge – more theology! The Word is living and active. It’s a creative and transforming life force that changes and manifests realities. The Word is a person! He is Jesus. He’s not a topic of discourse or subject material to dissect. He’s a world of Glory – He’s an experience of life.
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. – Romans 10:4 (KJV) For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. We are no more partakers of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil… we have now come to the Tree of Life. We have come to Jesus. He is Life. Our life is no more about right and wrong choices. The things of this world are not our focus. It’s about living Eternal Life, now. It’s about partaking of eternity – it’s about knowing Jesus and the Father. It’s about manifesting our identity to the world around us.
If you’re living by Grace then your efforts have no value anymore… – Romans 11:6 (KJV) And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. Grace is when God initiates everything in your life, and completes it Himself. You are simply a passenger going along for the ride. No doubt, whatever God does, He does it through you. But He orchestrates the options laid before you and manifests the perfect working of His plan by His Spirit through you.
Praying in tongues is praying in the Spirit… Praying in the Spirit can also be by revelation.
It’s when the New Man prays. The New Man is born of water and the Spirit… we are spiritual beings. When we pray in tongues, we speak out mysteries of God into manifestation! Speaking in tongues is when the we ‘call forth those things that be not, as though they are’ by the Spirit. Every audible word bypasses the physical mind and materialises spiritual realities in our favour! The logical mind doesn’t need to comprehend spiritual realities unless necessary – that’s when the interpretation of tongues is given.
