Joel prophesied about our day in Joel 2:28.

Ref: [Joel 2:28 KJV]

And it shall come to pass afterward,

that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh;

and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

your old men shall dream dreams,

your young men shall see visions:

What Moses wished those days is available today.

1 Corinthians 14:1 KJVS] [1] Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.

The word Desire used there is the Greek word zēloō. It means to burn with zeal. To be zealously affected.

Desire spiritual gift. Burn with zeal for it.

It’s not a luxury

It’s not youthful exuberance.

You’re wrong if you don’t desire it.

It's an instruction in the word.

Scriptures complete and furnish the believer unto all good works. The teachings you get have to find expression in your works.

When we see you we should see the evidence of all you have been taught. This is actual spiritual growth.

You can learn all the things and have so much knowledge but we wouldn’t consider you to have grown of the word of God doesn’t have this impact in your works. If it doesn’t find expression in your life.

Insecurity is uncertainty or anxiety about oneself; lack of confidence.

Nothing solves insecurity better than an increased consciousness of who you are in Christ Jesus. The feeling of not being enough would be solved when you understand better who you are in Christ.

There is an unhealthy comparison the world has made many of us get used to. Insecurity rises from there.

God has a track record of using people who seemed incapable and turns them to mighty men in his hands. There are examples of people in scriptures.

Anxiety:

Intense, excessive, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations.

This is a real situation people face every day. Not being able to keep calm because of fear of what is happening or what could happen.

In this situation, perfect peace is almost unrealistic because it would seem as if you are not facing reality if you are calm.

What does the Bible say about this?

Jesus also lived in a time like this. When he was born, all his age mates where he lived were killed.

His cousin John the Baptist was beheaded. The Jews were living in a time where the economy was terrible and they were ruled by the Romans. They had to pay taxes even when the majority of them were not earning enough to support their families.

This teaching is one that every believer has to be equipped with. It can mark the difference between a believer who is perpetually victorious in God and a believer who is defeated when the troubles of this world become too much.

The number one battle of the enemy today is not a battle against your health or marriage but a struggle that you don’t come to the knowledge of God or don’t grow in your faith. And it’s so sad that the biggest attack of the devil on the church is the place we place our focus the least.

Continuation on Barriers to Bible Interpretations.

In this episode, we discussed two things:

Firstly: If we are to read the inspiration of the apostles, discover what the writer intended, and seek no other interpretation, then where is the place of the Holy Spirit teaching us all things, or bringing to our understanding the things we have learned?
