Prayer 2021 - April 1 - The Holy Spirit Talks to Our Spirit

Scripture For Today:

Matthew 26:41

“Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

Holy Spirit Talks to Our Spirit

The best way to get answers to your prayers is to get into the Spirit when you pray. The best way to get into condition spiritually so you CAN hear the Lord is to pray in tongues. Since praying in tongues is praying with your spirit, and God is a Spirit (from John 4:24), then God will communicate with you through your spirit AS you pray in tongues. Amen!

God will very rarely speak to a man in the physical senses. He usually will only do that as a last resort when people are either spiritually dead or too dense to receive from Him any other way. So many people have missed it by wanting God to “manifest Himself” in the natural, physical realm using their physical senses. But, they are easily deceived in that request because, as Second Corinthians 4:4 tells us, “Satan is the god of this world” and sometimes, he will try to deceive you by masquerading as an angel of light. 

If you only try to listen for God or sense God in the physical world, it is very easy for you to be deceived, led astray and miss God altogether! The only times when I truly missed God (and messed up something terrible in my Faith walk) was when I tried to use a “fleece” like Gideon and try to have something happen in the physical sense. Satan will jump all over that opportunity to lead you astray so you do not fulfill whatever mission the Lord has given you to attend to.

Usually, when I was going down that path, I could sense in my spirit that something was amiss. But I desired whatever it was enough that I would ignore the promptings and warnings the Holy Spirit was sending me, checks in my spirit if you want to call them that. 

But I was so set on doing whatever it was, that I would totally miss God in the process. Even though I knew the Holy Spirit was trying to tell me something, I ignored it. That’s the main reason we get confused is when we try to reason it out ourselves. Amen!

If you want your spirit to be more sensitive to things of the Holy Spirit, you have to exercise your spirit just like you exercise you natural body. You have to build up that spiritual strength. 

God is not going to speak to your mind because He doesn’t live in your mind. He lives in your heart. Amen! Don’t shout me down when I’m preaching good!  When you are speaking in other tongues, you are not speaking head knowledge, you are speaking heart knowledge. Why? Because that is where the Holy Spirit dwells. Amen!

I know that, from the natural view point of things, this sound silly. That’s what the Bible says it will sound like to those who do not believe, “Foolishness.”  That is why so much of our praying and worship service is conducted in the natural and not in the Spirit. Because our natural, carnal minds would think it is all foolish. 

You do realize that word carnal…well, let me put it like this. In Spanish, the word CARNE is the word for meat. So, when I see that word carnal, especially where it says our “carnal minds” are concerned, I read that as the Holy Spirit calling us a bunch of “meat heads” in famous Archie Bunker style!
