Two major points I want to make this week:
• Spiritual Understanding is possible.
• We must “learn-to-learn” from the Holy Spirit.
(Recap) There are three parts of you:
• You are a Spirit (this is the real you).
• You possess a Soul.
• You live in a Body.
(Eph 1:3 KJV) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
(1 Cor 2:9-12 NLT) That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.” But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets. No one can know a person’s thoughts except that person’s own spirit, and no one can know God’s thoughts except God’s own Spirit. And we have received God’s Spirit (not the world’s spirit), so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us.
1. Some believe Spiritual Insight is something they cannot receive
a. Either because God’s ways cannot be understood.
b. Or because they feel incapable of such understanding.
c. Revelation is RECEIVED, not figured out.
2. The Holy Spirit is IN us to bring us Spiritual Understanding
a. The Author of the Bible lives IN YOU!
b. You can know all that God wants you to know – through your Spirit.
3. God put His Spirit in you, so now you have access to His thoughts
a. Human example.
b. God’s example.
4. Learn-to-Learn from the Holy Spirit!
a. Stop stopping the process.
b. This is why your mind must be renewed.
