Spiritual Awakening Unto Godly Living by Onyekachi85(m): 10:47pm On Jul 03, 2020 |
Spiritual awakening unto Godly living is the need of the hour. It is a call to higher consciousness and deeper mental awareness. Which brings about personal transformation and a change in one’s view towards life. Spiritual awakening is a time we need to wake up from our spiritual slumber and deep sleep of our soul, beyond the confinement of our ego and pride and move to the light of God. For, the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said, ”Awake” O sleeper, arise and Christ will give you light Ephesians 5:14. Before God speaks about Spiritual awakening. He has seen the spiritual asleep and unconsciousness of men. Spiritual awakening is a time to show the clear difference between a genuine child of God and an unbeliever. We have come to know that a person can be a church leader, occupy a notable position without knowing God. Such a person can claim to be a man of God but a hypocrite. Any church with a leadership that has missed the way is a church that is asleep and needs to awake. Many of the so-called Christians and church leaders today have been lulled into deep spiritual sleep and needed to awake. They can teach the bible very well, speak in tongues, prophesy, see visions, speak good and eloquent grammar. But their personal life doesn’t show evidence of one in good relationship with the Holy Spirit. While some are no longer interested in studying their Bible, giving time to prayer, attending prayer meetings, or going out for evangelism. This is the spiritual realities of the times we are living in. Many have lost their spiritual weight. They are now living in their past glory but pretending to be what they used to be. When Spiritual awakening takes place, it takes over your entire being, your body, heart, mind, and soul. WHEN YOU ARE SPIRITUALLY UNCONCIOUS You become asleep once you are dead in transgressions and sins. And you automatically become accustomed to immorality without any remorse, regret, or shame. 1: That leads you into believing you are the only better person 2: That you are “Good” and others are “Evil” 3: You will see yourself as a “Spiritual Person” while others are “Carnal” 4: You condemn everything done by another person Whenever someone is asleep, he is no longer aware of what is happening around him. When you are in the condition of permanent sleep, your condition is as good as dead. Such a person becomes spiritually sick and disconnected from the things of God. People who are lost in spiritual sleep are no longer interested in facing the realities of their situation. The church, the body of Christ needs to awake because the church has been sick and even from the head. Some of our church leaders at the head of churches are sick spiritually. We must awake both as an individual and as a church unto righteousness and holiness. Unfortunately, so many people find it difficult to awake. They see it as an old fashion message. They don’t want to wake up because they are enjoying the sleep. There are people who enjoy the spiritual sleep and stupor into which they have entered. They have completely lost focus on spiritual things. Some People have become accustomed to dwelling in spiritual sleep and they don’t want anybody to wake them. If you try to wake them up they will become annoyed with you and even see you as their enemy. Asking someone to “awake”, means that the person has a very poor spiritual perception of things happening around him. This is the finest hour of the church as spoken by Prophet Isaiah in Isaiah Chapter 2. But how can people run to Zion for different kinds of solutions to the world’s problems when the church is asleep. The great question to every individual is. What is the state of your spiritual life? Are you still sleeping? Are you among those saying that nothing will happen? It is the right time you wake up, for you have slept enough, and time is no longer on your side. When a man is sick and refused to accept that he is sick, there is no hope of healing. Read more... https://giftedmouth.com/2020/05/spiritual-awakening-unto-godly-living.html
