“Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I
would not have you ignorant.”
1
Corinthians 12:1
The word 'gifts' in our opening scripture is in
italics because it was not there in the original. This means that verse could
have read thus, “Now concerning spiritual, brethren, I would not have you
ignorant.” This means that God wants us to become aware of the realm of the
Spirit. He wants us to be trained in spiritual things and how to function in
the supernatural.
For instance, I remember the story of a dear man
who understood how to function in the supernatural. He was led by the Spirit to
buy a piece of land. When he went to his realtor or real estate agent to inquire concerning the land, the realtor told him that the land was worthless,
but he insisted on buying it because God told him to buy it. After he bought
the land, sometime later, minerals were found in the same land which was termed
worthless by the real estate agent. How did he know he was supposed to buy that
land? He followed the leading of God's Spirit; that's how to function in the
supernatural. As a result, that land alone made him a wealthy business man in
America.
It is so important you realize that the realm of
the spirit and walking in the supernatural is real. In fact, it is more real
than the natural realm. Therefore, if you are a Christian reading this
devotional, I encourage you to follow the leading of the Spirit of God in
everything you do. If you are not a Christian, I encourage you to confess Jesus
as your Lord and ask Him into your heart by praying the prayer of salvation on
page 62 so that you can be ushered into the realm of the supernatural.
Get ready to learn more about the realm of the
spirit and how you can function from the realm of the spirit as a child of God
throughout this month's devotional.
