Summary:

In the body of Christ there are many different expressions and ways of fulfilling God’s will. How are we to know the things that God is speaking to us and not be divided from our brother that is doing something different? We know that we must not use our carnal minds to try and discern what God is speaking, and that it is only by the Spirit of God within us that we can see what He is doing in each person. We all have something to contribute so that His family will be built up and complete.

Show Notes:

  • We must not use our human brains to try to discern the things of God. It is God’s Spirit within us that reveals the truth of what He is speaking.

  • When we revert to using our carnal mind, we open ourselves up to deception and division.

  • Will we lean upon what God has placed within our spirit, or our soul flesh and carnal mind.

  • If we lean on our mind to figure things out we will always wonder if this is the truth – we will be confused.

  • When I don’t understand something, I’m simply going to it on the shelf for God to interpret it to my spirit.

  • Because there are many different expressions and paths in God, we must reach in to His Spirit to understand and love what He is doing in our brother.

  • What we have to give to the body of Christ is so important – it supplies what the whole body needs.


    Quotes:

    • Our human brains are not meant to discern the spirit of God in understanding.
    • It’s God's spirit in us that interprets or brings us into the truth of what God is speaking.
    • The minute you rely on human thinking, and then it causes dissension, or it causes us to divide; you've allowed the enemy to come in.
    • When they received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, now they have available to them the ability to rise up in the Spirit, tap into the Holy Spirit, and see the truth, not the lies and deceptions and things that come through the brain.
    • Things in the spirit, love, peace, joy; all those things come to our heart. The unbelief, the questioning comes to the mind.
    • ...we turn to Him, and say “Lord you lead us ,You give us the direction, You show us.” Then we're not relying on our human thinking.
    • So the challenge is always, am I going to believe my soul flesh or am I going to believe my spirit?
    • The Spirit always brings the truth, without exception.
    • This is the Lord speaking to us about the different paths that different people will be walking on, that doesn't make them less, and it doesn't make them not a part.
    • We have to keep our spirits right before the Lord. And in doing that, when we come across people that not doing the things that we think that they should be doing, that we take it and hold it before the Lord.
    • Each part supplies something different, something that's necessary. You have no idea how important that really is. It adds to the whole.
    • So important that each one of us may say what I have isn't important. It is so important. It just ministers life. And that's how our oneness comes. We minister life and loose the Christ in each other.

      On the contrary, it is much truer that the parts of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;  and those parts of the body which we consider less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor, and our less presentable parts become much more presentable,  whereas our more presentable parts have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that part which lacked,

      Takeaways:
