LIFE IN THE SPIRIT VIDEO

God wants us to experience life in the Spirit for ourselves. We have to ask ourselves, would God give us every spiritual blessing and then put them in a place where we cannot access them? Certainly not! He made us to experience life in the Spirit, so we could receive all the blessings of Jesus.

EPH 1:3 God said to him, Go! Leave behind your country and your relatives. Begin your journey and come to the land that I will show you.  TPT

EPH 1:3  My ministry is not measured by the size of my prison cell. I am confined by his grace; Christ Jesus is the prison keeper. You are why I am here. (Grace measures my ministry; this prison cell cannot contain or hide my message from you!)  MIRROR

Ezek 37:1 God grabbed me. God's Spirit took me up and sat me down in the middle of an open plain strewn with bones.

2 He led me around and among them a lot of bones! There were bones all over the plain dry bones, bleached by the sun.

3 He said to me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" I said, "Master God, only you know that."

4 He said to me, "Prophesy over these bones: 'Dry bones, listen to the Message of God!'"

5 God, the Master, told the dry bones, "Watch this: I'm bringing the breath of life to you and you'll come to life.

6 I'll attach sinews to you, put meat on your bones, cover you with skin, and breathe life into you. You'll come alive and you'll realize that I am God!"

7 I prophesied just as I'd been commanded. As I prophesied, there was a sound and, oh, rustling! The bones moved and came together, bone to bone.

8 I kept watching. Sinews formed, then muscles on the bones, then skin stretched over them. But they had no breath in them.

9 He said to me, "Prophesy to the breath. Prophesy, son of man. Tell the breath, 'God, the Master, says, Come from the four winds. Come, breath. Breathe on these slain bodies. Breathe life!'"

10 So I prophesied, just as he commanded me. The breath entered them and they came alive! They stood up on their feet, a huge army. MSG

Eph 6:18  In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing warfare. Pray hard and long. Pray for your brothers and sisters. Keep your eyes open. Keep each other's spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out. MSG  ↕↕↕

EH 6:18  Prayer is an ongoing conversation; praying in the spirit includes every form of prayer, whether it be a prayer of request or a prayer of thanksgiving, or worship or interceding for all to realize their saintly innocence. Oh, and remember, you do not have to do all the talking! Always be attentive to the voice of the Spirit.   MIRROR

1 Peter 3:18 For Christ [the Messiah Himself] died for sins once for all, the Righteous for the unrighteous (the Just for the unjust, the Innocent for the guilty), that He might bring us to God. In His human body He was put to death, but He was made alive in the spirit,

19 In which He went and preached to the spirits in prison,

20 [The souls of those] who long before in the days of Noah had been disobedient, when God's patience waited during the building of the ark in which a few [people], actually eight in number, were saved through water.  AMP

1 Peter 3:22  [And He] has now entered into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with [all] angels and authorities and powers made subservient to Him. AMP

1 Peter 4:6 Listen to the Message. It was preached to those believers who are now dead, and yet even though they died (just as all people must), they will still get in on the life that God has given in Jesus. MSG

Rev 1:10  It was Sunday and I was in the Spirit, praying. I heard a loud voice behind me, trumpet-clear and piercing: MSG

Gal 5:25  Since this is the kind of life we have chosen, the life of the Spirit, let us make sure that we do not just hold it as an idea in our heads or a sentiment in our hearts, but work out its implications in every detail of our lives.

26 That means we will not compare ourselves with each other as if one of us were better and another worse. We have far more interesting things to do with our lives. Each of us is an original. MSG

GAL 5:16 I conclude: engage your spirit to be the dominant influence in your daily walk and see how it defeats the cravings of flesh.  MIRROR

2 COR 5:18 Now, we all, with new understanding, see ourselves in him as in a mirror. The days of window-shopping are over! In him every face is 1unveiled. In 2gazing with wonder at the 5blueprint of God displayed in human form, we suddenly realize that we are looking into a mirror, where every feature of his 3image, articulated in Christ, is 2reflected within us! The Spirit of the Lord engineers this radical 4transformation; we are led 6from an inferior 5mind-set to the revealed 5endorsement of our authentic identity.  (Weve got our masks off and Gods brilliance is bouncing off our faces! Were glowing from knowing! MIRROR

EPH 3:16-And I pray that he would unveil within you the unlimited riches of his glory and favor until supernatural strength floods your innermost being with his divine might and explosive power.

17 Then, by constantly using your faith, the life of Christ will be released deep inside you, and the resting place of his love will become the very source and root of your life.

Eph 3:16- I ask him to strengthen you by his Spirit not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength

Rom 8:11  It stands to reason, doesn't it, that if the alive-and-present God who raised Jesus from the dead moves into your life, he'll do the same thing in you that he did in Jesus, bringing you alive to himself? When God lives and breathes in you (and he does, as surely as he did in Jesus), you are delivered from that dead life. With his Spirit living in you, your body will be as alive as Christ's!

12 So don't you see that we don't owe this old do-it-yourself life one red cent.

13 There's nothing in it for us, nothing at all. The best thing to do is give it a decent burial and get on with your new life.

14 God's Spirit beckons. There are things to do and places to go!

Rom 1:4 his unique identity as Son of God was shown by the Spirit when Jesus was raised from the dead, setting him apart as the Messiah, our Master.

5 Through him we received both the generous gift of his life and the urgent task of passing it on to others who receive it by entering into obedient trust in Jesus.

6 You are who you are through this gift and call of Jesus Christ!  MSG

Gal 5:18  Why don't you choose to be led by the Spirit and so escape the erratic compulsions of a law-dominated existence?  MSG

Gal 5:22  But what happens when we live God's way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments,

23 not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely. Legalism is helpless in bringing this about; it only gets in the way. MSG

GAL 5:22-23 Your spirit effortlessly bears the rich harvest of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, integrity, gentleness and self control; all these individually reveal the irresistible attraction of the inner-life of our design. (They are not fading, fragile emotions produced by willpower. This is the fruit of what you know in your spirit to be true about you. Fruit is the effortless, spontaneous expression of the character of the tree. Rest in the awareness and assurance of who you really are!)

23 Legalism can neither match nor contradict this. There is no law against love! MIRROR

COL 3:1 See yourselves co-raised with Christ! Now ponder with persuasion the consequence of your co-inclusion in him. Relocate yourselves mentally! Engage your thoughts with throne room realities where you are co-seated with Christ in the executive authority of Gods right hand.  MIRROR

Eph 2:6 And He raised us up together with Him and made us sit down together [giving us joint seating with Him] in the heavenly sphere [by virtue of our being] in Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One).

7 He did this that He might clearly demonstrate through the ages to come the immeasurable (limitless, surpassing) riches of His free grace (His unmerited favor) in [His] kindness and goodness of heart toward us in Christ Jesus. AMP
