Our greatest joy in life is to know our heavenly Father through His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. There is so much we can learn from our spiritual fellowship, full sharing, with our Father through Christ. There is also a lot we DON’T know. Ecclesiastes 11:5:
As thou KNOWEST NOT WHAT IS THE WAY OF THE SPIRIT, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
Jesus spoke of the spirit.
John 3:5-8 [The Passion Translation]:
Jesus answered, “I speak an eternal truth: Unless you are born of water and Spirit-wind, you will never enter God’s kingdom realm.
For the natural realm can only give birth to things that are natural, but THE SPIRITUAL REALM GIVES BIRTH TO SUPERNATURAL LIFE!
“You shouldn’t be amazed by my statement, ‘You must be born from above!’
For the Spirit-wind blows as it chooses. You can hear its sound, but you don’t know where it came from or where it’s going. So it is within the hearts of those who are Spirit-born!”
The natural realm only can give birth to physical and mental things. But the spiritual shows us how to live for and please the Father.
Romans 8:1,2:
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but AFTER THE SPIRIT.
For the law of the Spirit of life [spiritual LIFE] in Christ Jesus hath made me FREE from the law of sin and death.
We are truly FREE in Christ Jesus, our Lord, as we walk in the spirit and acknowledge the spirit within us. We can “hear its sound,” as Jesus told Nicodemus. It is a “still, small voice” within.
1 Kings 19:12:
And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
Jesus came to give us an understanding of spiritual life that we can enjoy in walking with our Father each day. The “false god,” Satan, wants to lead us astray into his ways of death and destruction. But we KNOW THE TRUE GOD, OUR FATHER, as we are IN His Son Jesus Christ. Jesus leads us to the only TRUE GOD and eternal life with Him.
1 John 5:20:
And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath GIVEN US AN UNDERSTANDING, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
Let’s get to know our heavenly Father, the TRUE GOD, by walking with His spirit and serving our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
