Spiritual Growth #17

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

One of the spiritual abilities that come with spiritual growth is an awareness of the Holy Spirit and the awareness of other spirits that are not holy. I expect that all of you at times experience feeling uncomfortable with some people and some locations. Some of this uncomfortable feeling is because there is another spirit in or with that person or in that location.

I want to encourage you to begin to pay attention to these uncomfortable feeling. Don’t run away from them but begin to reach out with your spirit and see where these things are coming from and what they are. We right away think it is us, and that there is something wrong with me. No! It is not you; you are sensing or feeling another spirit.  Recognize it for what it is.

Spirits come in many forms, such as anger, discouragement, heaviness, guilt, unworthiness, accusation, blame and many other ways. These things invade our homes and try to get strongholds in our minds and hearts. If you can recognize them for what they are, you can take authority over them and cast them out of your home and family.

These spirits are very subtle; they want you to think it is you or a member of your family. They don’t want you to recognize them as a spirit that you can deal with, bind and cast out. When we recognize a spirit for what it is and realize we don’t have to be afraid of it, we have already defeated it.

Really begin to pay attention in your home and business and you will begin to recognize and be surprised how many of these spirits are active around you and possibly affecting you.

May God bless you with good spiritual discernment.
