“Now concerning spiritual things, my brethren, I would not have you ignorant.”
I Corinthians 12:1(DRB)
Ignorance is terrible. This is why Paul says in our opening scripture, that he does not want us to be ignorant concerning spiritual things. In other words, he wants us to become aware of the realm of the spirit.
It is important for you to know that the realm of the spirit is real. God is a Spirit, and He created physical things. So it becomes evident that if God who is a Spirit created physical things, it means that the realm of the spirit is superior to the natural realm.
Therefore, having an understanding of these things and the knowledge of how to function in the realm of the spirit will cause you to be effective in life. It is also important for you to guard your heart against all deception because that is one of satan's weapons against you because there is a warfare going on for the minds of men.
In 2 Corinthians 11:3 the Bible says, “But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.”
This means that satan can corrupt your mind through deception. Therefore, it is important that you guard your heart today from all forms of deceits and seductions from the mass media, the internet and publications that presents information, ideas and concepts that exalts itself against the knowledge of Christ Jesus.
PRAYER
Dear Father I ask that you expose by your truth every seed of falsehood that have entered into my belief system in Jesus Name, Amen.
For further study read:
Proverbs 4:23, Colossians 2:6-10, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-11, 2 Timothy 3:1-9, 2 Timothy 4:3-4, 2 Peter 3:17-18, Jude 1:3-4.
DOING THE WORD
Consciously stop yielding your mind to the wrong information from the internet, the mass media or other publications and books. Get rid of them.
