Scripture: Galatians 5:16
But I say, walk and live
[habitually] in the [Holy] Spirit [responsive to and controlled and
guided by the Spirit]; then you will certainly not gratify the cravings and
desires of the flesh (of human nature without God) (biblegateway.com –
Amplified).
On Sunday December 9, 2012 I had a
bad allergic reaction and ended up going to the ER; through it all God got the
glory and I got the victory in more ways than one (not having anything
seriously wrong since during the ordeal my blood pressure went up to 192 over
102 and the lab test later showed I had a blood clot in my lungs). However, in
the end, all tests were normal and I thank God!!
When I woke on Monday morning, I saw I
had a message from Sunday I needed to respond to and as I was responding to it,
God brought David and Jonathan to me. God let me knew that David and Jonathan
had a spiritual connection not a natural one; that is why their relationship
was so strong. He let me know not to be upset with the person I was upset
with because we did not have a spiritual connection but a natural
connection. Of course at that time, I had to make a decision to forgive her and
I did – I did not “feel” like forgiving her – she hurt me – but I know
forgiveness is a choice not a feeling. When you decide to forgive someone, you
are being obedient to God – if we do not forgive others, God will not forgive
us (Matthew 6:15; Mark 11:26). God also
let me knew that to have a successful relationship with someone it has to be by
the Spirit – you must know that person by the Spirit – your spirits must be in
agreement with each other.
It is impossible to have a spiritual
relationship with someone who has a carnal mind! A spiritual minded person and
a natural minded person’s spirit cannot be connected so they can walk in the
Spirit of God!
God bless,
