"The senses of God"
The enemy has done a really good job
desensitizing a generation to accept ungodly systems and patterns. The
same way a shot of novocaine desensitizes you to the pain of having a
cavity drilled by your dentist, and lots of spicy food can desensitize
you to more subtle flavors. In both cases, you become less perceptive,
or less affected by a sensation or taste.
Nowadays its not
uncommon to witness homosexual relationships on the streets or on
television you'll even to see acts of violence & fear. We have come
to a point where this is considered to be the norm. Now if we look a
little deeper we can see even a desensitization in the church where we
witness miracles of God seeing His love and power demonstrated to the
lost and wounded, but yet many people will sit in their chairs reading
Facebook statuses and viewing Instagram pics while God is right there in
front of them. This is called "FAMILIARITY" and familiarity leads to a
loss of respect for one another.
Matthew 13:55,57: [The
familiarity of Jesus' Own family and neighbors caused them not to take
Him seriously:] Is not this the carpenter's son? 57 And they were
offended in Him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without
honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. See Mark 6:3
John 6:42,43: And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph,
Whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He saith, I came
down from Heaven? 43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur
not among yourselves.
John 7:3-5: [Jesus' Own brothers mocked
Him.] His brethren therefore said unto Him, Depart hence, and go into
Judaea, that Thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest…. If
Thou do these things, shew Thyself to the world. 5 For neither did His
brethren believe in Him.
Familiarity often comes from seeing someone or situations with the eyes of the flesh (carnal thinking) instead of the spirit.
Romans 8:5-7: For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of
the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is
life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity [deep-seated hatred]
against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed
can be.
1 Corinthians 2:14: But the natural man receiveth not
the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him:
neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
You see when the King walks in the room how will we respond?
God wants to increase your spiritual senses to bring us a greater
understanding & awareness of His spirit. Galatians 5:16,17 This I
say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the
flesh. 17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit
against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that
ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Do not allow yourself to
become desensitized to the things of God instead begin to declare and
decree the increase of your senses to be able to sensitize a generation
with Gods glory and love. Gods glory is the norm. - Pete G #runwithrevival #radioairJesus www.runwithrevival.com
