The Holy Spirit is the spirit of grace. He is the spirit of truth. He is the spirit of sanctification, of power, wisdom, and holiness. There is no turning back from the cross; that is the starting point. Whoever misses the cross will miss God’s truth, and ultimately miss His inheritance. The thing about giving is that you don’t have to be saved to receive. You don’t even need to be a child of God to give in order to receive. It is a universal law.
“While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”Genesis 8:22, KJV
“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”Luke 6:38, KJV
The law of sowing and reaping is a universal law. Idolaters sow and receive! When people make giving their whole message, it will be difficult for them to produce sons instead they will produce idolaters. This is one of the reasons why it is difficult to disciple a miracle seeker. Their connection is very loose; they are partial contact people. They are partial connection people.
They are looking for what to get; they are not looking for a God to serve and certainly not a God to worship. They move from place to place seeking for miracles. They don’t grow. No maturity because they are not led by the Holy Spirit. They are led by the desires of their heart in tandem with the snake in the garden. Their intelligence is unified with the snake in the garden. The cross is not in their heart. The message of the cross does not interest them at all.
Unfortunately, there is so much poverty in the world; the devil is busy using it as a weapon to trap many to make them bow and worship him. But those who allow the Holy Spirit to lead them will go to the cross, they live the ascension life and they are the ones who will walk in comprehensive dominion. They will be so highly favoured and they will be blessed.
The power of the favour of God will catapult them to greatness. Everything created will collaborate to make them succeed. If God is at work in your life, your life will move up. That is one of the ways to know that you are properly connected. That is one of the ways to know if you are following a good leader or a dealer.
The greatest mentor anyone can ever have is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit cannot mislead you. He will be your guide. He is the spirit of truth. Whenever you make a mistake, he will convict you. If you take the feedback, repent and apply the blood of Jesus, you are good to go. That is the work of the Holy Spirit. You will not make that mistake again because you have taken correction. He will continue to mentor you and your life will get sanctified. Your path becomes the path of the righteous shining from brightness to brightness in line with Prov. 4:18. There is progression. Heaven becomes so real to you than any earthly thing can ever be. Nobody can bribe you with any earthly thing. The devil has lost you finally.
That is how to be a worshipper. You are so fanatically in love with God that the idea of substituting that love for anything else does not even remotely exist. You will be able to place the things that follow salvation where they rightly belong. Do you need them? Yes, of course! But are they the main things? No!
Peter walked with Jesus for three and half years, by the time Jesus was about to go when he appeared the second time to Peter and the others when they went back to their first love of fishing. Jesus reappeared to them and asked Peter, do you really love me above fish, above bread? Jesus asked this question three times. These are not the main things. Jesus told him, if you love me, feed my sheep, feed my lamb. Can we still find committed people today? When Peter emerged from that encounter, he was ready to go all the way out. He was mature, transformed and ready even to be crucified. Jesus said in the world, you will have tribulation (John 16:33). The easy believists are very selective, they don’t mention this. What are you really chasing? My greatest desire is to raise God chasers. That is what I want to spend the rest of my life doing. God will grant me the grace in the name of Jesus.
