1 | How do I to better stand on His word? | Bible general Archive 4 | Soldiernurse79 | 229489 | ||
I understand that basically the natural man is the carnal (flesh) nature which is contrary to the spirit. Is this accurate? | ||||||
2 | How do I to better stand on His word? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 229490 | ||
That’s solid information alright but it isn’t exactly what that verse has in mind. Just like the natural man is born into this world with the equipment to function in this world, like wise the one who is going to function in the life to come, i.e. life with God or everlasting life needs to be born of the spirit so that he has the equipment necessary to understand spiritual phenomenon. That’s why Jesus said the following: John 3:1-6 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 2The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. 3Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Before we can go any further, have you come to the place yet where you know for sure that you have been born of the spirit? CDBJ |

Yes, that I am most certain of, and the more I walk in the spirit and learn to make it my primary nature, the more things like this seem to frustrate me. I have been told that I am trying too hard and wanting too much of myself, but as far as I am concerned, how can you want too much of God and His spirit to be manifest in you? I know that He is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him, and in a way, I almost don't care about the manifesting of a physical reward as much as I want to walk in harmony in the spirit with His. Part of that I believe is recognizing when His promises have come to pass, which I am having a difficult time recognizing. | ||||||

None of us know all God's promises. The Bible is full of them. As you read the Bible you will discover more and more what God has done for you in fulfilment of His promises. As you come across them rejoice in them and give Him praise and thanks. Don't worry too much about the others. As you come across them it will like finding diamond after diamond. You have a whole lifetime in which to discover them and enjoy them. best wishes |
