Restoring Spiritual Connection
Human beings are spiritual beings living in a physical plane and the tendency is to focus life on things you can see, touch, smell, taste, or hear. Living exclusively as a physical being creates a disconnect that will be exploited by opposition’s forces which are always spiritual in nature. The result is predictable as the mind grapples with the restlessness of physical outcomes, oblivious of their source. Renewal and restoration of the flow of overcomer essence and support, is the only way to reconnect to its reservoir of confidence, power, and mindful energies for good. You will benefit from taking the steps outline below.
Renew the Mind
The mind is a spirit place. It is the key to experiencing the transformative power of spiritual living water to refresh and empower your spirit to overcome life’s challenges with strength and vitality. Spiritual renewal and restoration stems from taking time to explore and focus the mind on what the spiritual has to offer you. Intentionality in living as a spiritual being is a worthy investment. It disposes you to have the benefit of the peace and joy that radiates from staying connected to the source of your whole being. He is your creator, the Almighty Spirit and the author of your dual nature. The book, “Gifts to God, worship and Echoes of Pure Love” has more to say about this. Our teaching in the book on meditation will prove to be a life changer for you in this regard as well.
Focus on Victory
Get your mind away from dwelling on your circumstances of the present time. Whether it is unpleasant, good, or great, there’s always more and better you can have. Yes, it’s good to spend some time to appreciate where you are, if you have arrived there, but, don’t stay there too long. And if you are where you don’t want to be, then you have an obligation to move your focus away from it. “Lift up your eyes from where you are” (Genesis 13:14), an exhortation by God to Abraham, remains a great advice for every one for all times. Fixation on your troubles robs you of the energy to reach for solutions. As God implored Abraham, begin to look instead to where you want to be, letting your mind be consumed by it. Example, the individual should begin to focus instead on: A healed body or spirit or relationship; more than enough provisions, even abundance of it; peace and joy that reigns constantly in your life, etc. These are your rights to have. Dream about more.
Spiritual Hydration
I have heard it said that “You die when you stop growing/learning.” It applies especially to the vibrancy of your spiritual self which is as alive as the information active in its arsenal. Redundancy and stagnation will set in when you stop to learn. In a very active and rapidly changing spiritual environment of the world, that is akin to involuntary death to your viability, victory, and overcoming. So, it is essential to Learn more about the spiritual and how it helps you to stay ahead of the schemes of the opposition against you. “We are not unaware of the schemes of the enemy”, the scripture says. But this is only true when you know how to keep your spirit-self always aware. My book on spirituality will prove valuable.
Know Spiritual Truth
There’s only one truth in anything you review. If it’s daylight, the truth is that it is daylight and everything can see that. Someone may suggest otherwise, but a review will undoubtedly verify that there is daylight. Truth is a spiritual construct and concept that has power to stand up against every other concept when push comes to shove. Spiritual Living water will arm you with truth. Holding up the truth of your right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, will stand up in any review when facing opposition to that inalienable concept. Spiritually, you must win, even if delayed. At a later date, a remarkable outcome will attest to your victory. Jesus Christ, put it this way, “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John 8:32). Find the truth that relate to your spiritual need, and it will get you there.
Have Inquisitive Mind
A lot of falls and fatal mistakes have come from acting on incorrect or misinterpreted information. Enormous tragedies have followed such mistakes. Always be ready to probe things you hear, turning it over, testing it to see if it aligns with the mind you need to have for your good. Seeking to understand better is a good thing because nobody has all the knowledge. If you are still young and not yet mature enough in thought and knowledge of the world, defer to the “still small voice” within you. It is your spiritual alert system and will not lead you astray. If you’re uncomfortable with what you are hearing, or seeing, chances are that it isn’t for you. Mature and older individuals can still use spiritual guidance. Test what you hear, both from the spirit or the natural, to see if it fits, and if not, throw it away. Your spiritual strength, restoration, or renewal will benefit from it.
