Ruach Elohim-Breathe in Us

• The difference between being in God’s presence and being aware of His presence
• Why encounters with God should become a continuing way of life
• Refusing to allow spiritual experiences to fade into memories
• Every experience with God leaves a deposit within our spirit
• How God’s nature becomes woven into our everyday lives
• Christ coming forth naturally rather than through religious behavior
• Remaining who God created us to be while expressing Christ
• Entering Kingdom rest and ceasing from our own spiritual effort
• Trusting God even when we do not feel anything spiritually
• Using past experiences as stepping stones instead of destinations
• Christ Himself becoming our wisdom, spirituality, and confidence
• Trusting the Father to direct our path

• “There’s a difference between just being in His presence and being aware of His presence.”
• “That is not an experience. That’s another step that the Father has opened up for me to walk in continually.”
• “If you touch God, or He touches you, that’s a step that we need to put a pin in the ground and say, ‘I’m not going back from here.’”
• “The experience has a beginning, and then it becomes a deposit in your spirit.”
• “Pretty soon, it’s woven into our lives.”
• “God is incorporating Himself into us in such a way that everything must become natural.”
• “We are still us, and yet it’s Christ in us at the same time.”
• “Christ is our spirituality.”
• “The experiences become our stepping stones.”
• “Go where the Lord leads you and let God be an expression through you.”

Do not allow what God has revealed to you to become merely a memory of something that happened in the past. Receive every encounter with Him as a deposit and another step into a continuing way of life. You do not have to recreate an experience or struggle to appear spiritual. Rest in the Father, trust what He is establishing within you, and allow Christ to express His nature naturally through the person He created you to be. What began as an experience can become part of your nature as you continue walking forward with Him.
