Anytime we write about Spirit life I guess it comes across
long as really it is impossible to communicate. This is another glimpse of
Spirit life attempted to be written about.
The further we look at a life of the Spirit the greater the
separation lies in our lives. It is a quandary what our life will look like
from this time forward. It was as I sat pondering life that I started to find
from within came the words of Solomon “better the one who is not born” From a
natural perspective you can see the more of Spirit revealed the less life has a
carnal meaning. We have taken our lives and made the spirit walk palatable to
our natural man but there is a point where the natural man must be left behind
to a certain extent. King Solomon saw the futility of life and allowed that to
make him bitter. After all I cannot imagine seeing life’s futility and not
having the access we have to the Holy Spirit.
To meet us at the point of need God lovingly gives us
something we can make purpose out of and then so gently takes it from us. It is
as if we fight God as we try and hold what He has given us but in so doing we
fail to grasp the fact it was a life’s stepping stone. A stepping stone to take
purpose not give it. How can there be any natural purpose to life, sure we can
have moments of mission, but overall life can have no purpose as when it does
we are admitting our carnal man has narcissistic problems. A life with purpose
when ultimately revealed, all we will see revealed in us the hoarding of mortal
life and the warm acceptance purpose brings to our fallen nature. It is
wonderful to our fallen man to know he is pleasing God and ultimately himself
by his life of purpose. We can start to understand unless we have had a Solomon
time in our life then maybe we can say we have missed life itself and reside in
the mortal. It is when we could write Solomon’s words as if our own mortal life
ends and true eternal life begins, as now we have the life of the Holy Spirit
in us walking us to the eternal.
So to wake in the morning with no purpose is the loss of
mortal life itself. The life we have called , ME. In that loss and without a
love of the Holy Spirit filling and permeating our being then in fact all that
will follow is the depression and emptiness that king Solomon felt. He became
bitter and ultimately was lost in his quest to find a purpose in life. Solomon
talks of the various things he tried in order to gain life but also
acknowledges his failure to succeed. Truly as we now have the ability to be
co-joined with Christ we can understand the meaning of, “he who finds his life
must lose it”. This truly is something not possible to carnality or a natural
Christian. As in his dependence on purpose God ministers to him, to reveal
another world. Only when that separation is revealed can the man know total
loss of life, complete failure of carnality, called death.
It is in this death I get a glimpse of the bible where it
says “oh death where is your sting”, the power of death is broken. We have taken
that as carnal knowledge and said I am going to heaven, so death has lost its
victory but within a Spirit person rises the understanding of what the Apostle
Paul said “I die daily” it that death, death has lost its sting. Where is the
sting of death when as Solomon it is realized there is nothing in life of
value. Truly, I can as a dead man walking also understand, I am complete life
revealed, as out of death comes life when revealed by Spirit. Naturally like
Solomon we can be completely lost and bewildered and out of that bewilderment
surrender life itself. Yes we can say if there has not been that time of
bewilderment then there has been no loss of life to gain life.
If I am Spirit then there can be no purpose, yes I will have
moments of required action as from the life flow of the Spirit in me, my
natural man is ministered to. But If I focus on a need or a purpose then in
fact all I have is my natural man trying to minister to my spirit and indeed
this is not possible. As a natural man ministers to the spirit there is a
divide it cannot cross and in trying to cross all the carnal man does is
isolates himself from life and ultimately like a psychopath will make
everything about self.
So I am lost and ruined for this world and its desires. As
the Apostle Paul acknowledges there is “nothing good in me.” He goes on
to say “wretched man that I am who will save me from this body of death”. As I
am Spirit, my carnal man is ministered life by the Spirit and in chaos to that
natural man he can only receive what is not deserved, receive what is beyond
his ability and truly live in the Spirit so as to not carry out the lust of the
flesh. That lust of the flesh, categorized as sin and gazing deeper we can
start to understand it is the self righteous, self lusting core of a person.
Jesus took the sin and all that is left is a mortal self righteous core of a
person.
It is in where the bible says “life and death are in the
power of the tongue” It is not a death of works it is a death of origin. As
Christians, many have attempted to turn positive confession into a work of the
mortal man. Once again the mortal man tries to minister to the Spirit and
frustration follows. The life and death power of the tongue lies in its origin.
Anything I speak from a carnal mortal perspective is death by its origin and
anything from the Spirit is life. We can speak Spirit declarations and in so
doing create life but that is rarely a repetitive thing. It is not a word from
our lungs it is a breath from our spirit, a declaration of life flowing from
the Spirit with the breath of the Spirit. Speaking in tongues is such and as
the churchianity has turned such into doctrines they have limited the life of
the Spirit by taking ownership with a self righteous carnal ownership. Many
have made tongues a work rather than an outflow.
Yes I see I can do nothing but speak spirit and allow life
to manifest.
