Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place (2 Corinthians 2:14).
As Christians, we’ve been called to a supernatural walk with God for an unending life of absolute victory, mastery and dominion. However, if your experience of life is at variance with this reality, chances are that you’ve been operating at the base level of the senses. You need to step up, and lay hold of God’s blessings with your spirit, through the eyes of faith, to enjoy them.
God wants you to think and function at His level. He doesn’t want your outlook on life to be from the natural standpoint; He wants you to see with the eyes of the Spirit. When you learn to see with the eyes of the Spirit, the world will suddenly become small to you.
Ephesians 5:18 tells us to be filled with the Spirit continually, and the nineteenth verse shows us how: "Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord" (Ephesians 5:19). If you’re filled with the Spirit, you’ll be enabled supernaturally; you’ll be spiritually perceptive and operate at a higher realm. This is an experience that’s impossible with the natural man: "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man" (1 Corinthians 2:14-15).
Notice that it says, "…he that is spiritual judges all things." This means he has an understanding of all things within his spirit. He doesn’t function at the ordinary plane of life, and as a result, he’s never confused, perturbed or worried. He has the "I can do mentality" (Philippians 4:13), and lives victoriously everyday by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for the joy of being filled with the Holy Spirit and divinely transported into higher realms of life, far removed from poverty, sickness, death, defeat, destruction and failure. The eyes of my understanding are enlightened, therefore, I see the invisible and I’m empowered to do the impossible, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
