Spiritual Maturity!

 12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.14 But solid food belongs to those of full age, that is, those who, because of use, have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Hebrews 5:12-14

In my last post, I talked about entering the rest of God. There is some brewing in the heavenly realms in which the Holy Spirit calls Christians to transition into their upward call in Christ. This transitional time is significant. Papa is using this rest time to help us step into the next season of our lives. This next season in our lives will be about abiding in the vine.

We can do nothing without the Lord!

We can do nothing without the Lord's guidance. He will teach us the way we should go. Psalm 32:8. It is time to mature into sons and daughters. The Holy Spirit and the seven spirits of God will train us in the ways of God. Not knowing the ways of God has cost us the ability to advance the gospel of the kingdom in all nations. We have been so focused on God's acts that it is hard for us to follow his ways. You must trust the Lord to follow Him with all your heart!

In Psalm 23, we learn that Lord is the good shepherd! I had this experience in which the Lord showed me in a vision the reality of lying down in green pastures. Green pastures speak of rest. Jesus must sit on the seat of rest in our lives. He is our rest, and without him, we can do nothing. 

 Do you not believe I am in the Father and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority, but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. John 14:10. 

Like Jesus, we are learning to only do what we hear and see our Father doing. We are being trained to rule and reign with Papa, Jesus, and Holy Spirit. Why are we being trained to lead? The answer is that Papa wants us to manifest as sons and daughters.

14 For as many are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the Spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, e] Father. Romans 8:14-15

19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; 21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of [f]corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. Romans 8:19-21

As we learn to receive solid food from the Holy Spirit, our transition from glory to glory will open the realms of heaven that we never experience before. Jesus is showing us how live on earth as it is in heaven. Let us go on this journey together!

Blessings!
