BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.III John 1:2 (KJV)

To access the realm of financial fortune and remain in that realm, you must be spiritually minded. The covenant of blessing is not a game of give and take, no! It is a relationship with Yahweh and being spiritually minded is key to maximizing your access and maintenance of the blessing of Yahweh on your life. Why is being spiritually minded important and what does it mean to be spiritually minded? Being spiritually minded is setting your mind on the Holy Spirit and the interest of Yahweh’s Kingdom. It means to walk after the Spirit of Yahweh. It means to live according to the dictates of the Spirit. As we have said over and over in the course of this month’s teachings that Yahweh is not after your pocket. Your pocket is too wretched for Yahweh to be eyeing. Yahweh is after your heart not your cash (see Proverbs 23:26). It takes being spiritually minded:

DIMENSIONS OF THE WORD (4): THE WORD IS PROPHETIC

We have also a more sure word of prophecy? whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
II Peter 1:19 (KJV)

The Word of Yahweh is prophetic. This means that the Word foretells the events of the future. We have the glimpse of the end by the Word of the Lord. The Word of the Lord speaks to our future and to our moments. Until you are in the Word, you would not have idea of what the future looks like. Everything happening today is already prophesied in the Word. We know that the Word does not fail because what it foretold of old had come to pass, so what it foretell of the end shall come to pass. Anybody that refuses to take warning that the Word has already given has himself/herself to blame. The Word shows you the picture of your future. When you come into terms with that, then you will begin to walk in paths preordained for you. Romans 8:29 says, ‘For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.’ Even your salvation is a function of divine foreknowledge. It is because you were marked for salvation that irrespective of your past wickedness, somehow, salvation found you and when you heard the Word, you believed.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (8): BY IMPARTING AN EXCELLENT SPIRIT

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (8): BY IMPARTING AN EXCELLENT SPIRIT

Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
Daniel 6:3 (KJV)

Excellence is a talent or quality which is unusually good and so surpasses ordinary standards. Excellence is above par performance or outcome. It is a performance that wows everyone and evokes feelings of awe and admiration. The Word builds us up by imparting excellence into our spirit-man. As you interact with the Word on daily basis, there is a metamorphosis going on in your spirit-man. Our Father is an excellent God and all He does is excellent. There is no single mistake or error in Yahweh. Relating with Him in His Word turns you into that image of excellence. That was the story of Daniel. He was an addict of the Word (see Daniel 9:2). The Word was his meditation even in a strange land. What did the Word make of him? Daniel became a man that exuded excellence like no man’s business. Daniel was in power in the reign of four kings in Babylon. At a time, the king preferred Daniel above all other presidents and princes. That is not to say that this Daniel was a captive and a stranger in the land. He was not the son of the soil as we would say in this part of the world. But excellence has a way of breaking protocols. There is no racial discrimination where excellence is at work. Whenever excellence shows up favouritism dies.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (7): BY IMPARTING DIVINE WISDOM

For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
Proverbs 2:6 (KJV)

It is practically impossible to function in this kingdom outside the Word of Yahweh. This is because all that makes for real life and godliness are the impartation of the Word. The Word builds us up by giving us Divine Wisdom. Proverbs 4:7 says, ‘Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.’ Wisdom is the trait of utilizing knowledge and experience with common sense and insight. It is the ability to apply knowledge or experience or understanding or common sense and insight. It is the quality of being prudent and sensible. There are four kinds of Wisdom according James 3:15-18. The first kind of Wisdom is earthly or natural wisdom. It is the wisdom that we are born with as human being. Even though a child is just born, he/she does not put his/her mother’s breast in his/her nose and start sucking, earthly wisdom enables the child to put breast in his/her mouth and to suck. He/she does not need any lecture to get that done. Secondly, we have sensual wisdom. This is the wisdom acquired in the citadel of learning. It is also called intellectual wisdom. It comes through intellectual training and it enhances our social status. Thirdly, we have Devilish wisdom. This is the wisdom of diabolism and the occult. It is destructive in nature and it is used by magicians, witches, wizards and the occult. Then fourthly, we have the Wisdom from above. This is divine Wisdom and comes by interaction with the Word of Yahweh, the Bible.

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (3): BY IMPARTING THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS WILL

THE WORD BUILDS YOU UP (3): BY IMPARTING THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS WILL

For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
Colossians 1:9 [KJV]

The Knowledge of Yahweh’s Will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding is the goldmine that when you hit it, your life and world turns around 360 degrees instantly. Coming to the knowledge of His Will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding is so crucial that you should be praying like Apostle Paul both for yourself and especially for your family members to come to this dimension in the Word. The Knowledge of His Will in all Wisdom and spiritual understanding means coming to know the will of Yahweh and being filled with the spiritual understanding to process it as it relates to you and receiving the Wisdom to apply it to your life in order to come into the reality of what it is saying. Firstly is knowing the Will of Yahweh and the Will of Yahweh is what is in the Word, the Bible. The Bible is the Will of Yahweh for you the believer. The Will defines your inheritance and allotments; that is exactly what the Word does, showing you what belongs to you in HaMashiach and the path to take to take delivery of it. Knowing the Will of Yahweh is critical because, you can only act according to knowledge. But then, knowledge alone is not enough.

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (4): STAY LONG ON THE WORD

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (4): STAY LONG ON THE WORD

They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine.
Proverbs 23:30 (KJV)

No matter how light a person is, no one gets intoxicated with one cup of wine. Conversely, no matter how hard a person is, tarrying long at the wine will pass even the hardest person out. That is true with the Word. Just skipping a few pages, won’t achieve the result we are describing this month. It is tarrying long with the Word that brings about saturation. There is what is called saturation. It is the act of soaking thoroughly with a liquid. You cannot encounter the Word with a measure that cannot even satisfy you. Before you talk of saturation, then you have gone beyond satisfaction. But you are still in control at the level of satisfaction. We are talking of the level where you are no more in control. We are saying, stay long with the Word until the Word takes a hold of you and begins to control you and your actions. We are saying that the Word cannot saturate you in the skimpy way that you are handling the Word now. The principle of intoxication is staying long at the wine of the Word. Isaiah 5:11 confirms that it takes staying long at wine to be inflamed therewith, “Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them!”

HOW DOES YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH COME? (3): BY KNOWING THE REALITY OF YOUR NEW CREATION STATUS

HOW DOES YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH COME? (3): BY KNOWING THE REALITY OF YOUR NEW CREATION STATUS

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away? behold, all things are become new.
II Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)

Our redemption has a legal side which is very crucial for you to understand in order to stand in liberty and command of faith. You need to know that in the mind of Justice, we were recreated in Yahushua HaMashiach. This means that the justice for sin demands death. When HaMashiach died, the new creation died in and with Yahushua HaMashiach. In the death of Yahushua HaMashiach on the cross, the demand of Justice was fully satisfied. Halleluyah! That is not the end of the Story. Yahushua HaMashiach went to hell on our behalf and collected the key that Adam surrendered to Satan back. He was raised up on the third day with Zoe – the Yahweh-kind of life and as many as surrender to Him, He quickens (recreates and gives life) to their spirits.

FAITH COMES

FAITH COMES

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:17 (KJV)

Faith is the gift that the Holy Spirit imparts to your spirit upon hearing the gospel of Yahushua HaMashiach. So faith comes primarily by hearing the Word of HaMashiach. Someone had said that the second hearing in our text is understanding; so that the text could read faith comes by hearing and understanding the word of HaMashiach without doing the text any injustice. It is not anything that you hear that gives you faith; it is hearing the word of HaMashiach. So, you must be careful of what you hear. You are absolutely responsible for what enters your ears or what you see. Some hearing imparts fear. Just as faith comes by hearing the Word of HaMashiach, fear comes by hearing the word of Satan and evil people. So guarding what you hear becomes very paramount.

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (11): BELIEVES ALL THINGS

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (11): BELIEVES ALL THINGS
… is ever ready to believe the best of every person, …
1 Corinthians 13:7 (AMPC)
The word translated as “believes” in the second phrase is “pisteu.” The New Testament Greek Lexicon meaning for the word includes: to think to be true, to be persuaded of, to credit, place confidence in, to trust, etc. Once again, Apostle Paul is speaking about our relationships within the body of HaMashiach. Apostle Paul is not calling for a foolish gullibility. However, being guarded against the possibility of being taken advantage of is not correct either. Obviously, this does not mean that we are to lose all discernment when we love someone. In fact, Apostle Paul prays for the Philippians to have a love characterized by discernment. In Philippians 1:9-10 (NKJV), we read, ‘And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, 10 that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ,’
