“Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.”
Mark 14:38
You are a living spirit of the most high God. Did you know that?!!!
When God created man in his own image out of the dust, man did not come alive until God himself breathe into man’s nostrils. You are a walking spirit of the one who gave you life.
But is your spirit malnourished? What have you been feeding your spirit my friend?
Have you been resting in the company of those that know God or want to know Him? Or have you been ‘living life’ without purpose and letting anything or anyone sip into your God-given spirit?
True enough, this world is not our own nor is it our home, but while we are still in it, God’s kingdom in us lives in this world. So why then should we not feed the kingdom within us with prayer and wisdom?
You spend time with your friends or significant other to grow and nourish the relationship. You devote uninterrupted time to the company you have grown devoted to as friends and family to strengthen the bonds that you have developed with them. But have you devoted time to nurturing the spirit in you? Have you devoted time and effort to feeding God’s kingdom in you? Have you been praying, watching, communing with the spirit? Have you been talking to the spirit? Have you been listening to the spirit as you should?
The spirit is calling out to you today my sister, my brother. The spirit wants to be communed with. The spirit wants you to nourish it with goodness and love and prayer. It is time to feed the spirit while we still can.
It is my prayer for you that the Lord of Hosts who breathe life into you will grant you the strength, knowledge, and wisdom to feed His spirit inside of you. Amen.
