"Having God in my life, I have come to learn, that of what I consider 'spiritual energy',
has surely helped me maintain a much calmer and more collected behavior...believe it.
And I now know that this is obtainable only through the diligent practicing of the inspired
teachings of Jesus Christ. And when I get out of my way, remembrance of the principles of life come alive."
'Untruths and misleading language are prominent within Christian narratives when one's
worldly ego attempts to 'outsource' the intended spiritual wisdom from Jesus Christ.'
"Claiming Bible-inspired knowledge and not applying the wisdom, surely stubbornness and rebellion shall
be the undoing of any hope of spiritual growth."
"My spiritual awakening has surely opened my heart and mind to know to strive to
discipline myself, and practice the inspired wisdom inspired through the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Doing so shall hopefully help align my life more after the inspired thoughts of God."
'Being aligned with God's wisdom shall surely require spiritual discernment, of which pleasing
God shall be more likely to take place. It could be stated that many do not completely understand
the necessity and/or the needed effort to please God, in this life, here in the now.'
"Spiritual discernment absolutely has the real potential of acquiring peace of mind, here in the now.
And wrongful scripture understanding may very well not be compatible with acquiring spiritual discernment."
"I am thankful I have come to know the significance of striving for spiritual
discipline and this comes about by practicing the inspired teachings of Christ, no more, no less.
And, this bringing cause of my knowing of this calm and peace that has become very significant in this life."
'Expressed many times in my narratives, it has surely been mentioned the importance of acquiring spiritual
discernment. There is a difference between "core truths" and “peripheral truths". Theology literally means
“the study of god," but usually expands it to mean the study of religion more broadly.'
'In this sense, comes disturbing worldly language for the sake of claiming scripture knowledge from a
peripheral worldview, thus omitting the spiritual necessity to be enlightened with deep soul understanding.
And here arises great confusion to lost souls and /or those new to Christian life. And, it is important
to reflect upon a lost soul as someone who is not grounded in God and is led by emotions and physical desires instead of God.
They may be confused and continually searching for direction.'
"A lost soul and/or new to Christianity in seeking God's intervention should never be deceived by worldly foolishness.
Bible study is important, but not in the area of rewriting the Divine 'readings'."
"I firmly believe spiritual awareness surely has played an important part in my
life since my commitment to putting God in my life. A spiritual awareness consciously
brings to remembrance the principles that are needed to help discipline my life here in the now."
'What is upon one's mind most likely shall be the thought that tends to guide one's
conduct. And most likely, usually being worldly things shall be that which guides the thoughts
that are activated in language and behavior. Attempting to relate to God without spiritual awareness,
most likely will result in total worldliness. Harmony surely shall require a spiritual perspective.'
"Know this and know it well... A spiritual perspective can help people find purpose in their lives and deal with challenges more effectively. And, A spiritual perspective can help people understand healing on a soul level."
"I maintain the belief that the Holy Spirit has surely been a spiritual energy
that has influenced my life. This has helped my remembrance to practice the
principles of life and to remember my greatest resource is love."
'Dismissing the probability of having the Holy Spirit in one's life shall likely lead to
worldliness being ever prevalent and preventing needed spiritual awareness and discipline.'
"Take not the words here, but what scripture adamantly puts forth about the Holy Spirit."
"A changed life surely is my evidence of believing in the influence of an unseen God.
This, I believe not to be remotely likely without a grounded spiritual enlightenment. And change
absolutely requires my acting upon the spiritually inspired wisdom of Jesus Christ's teachings."
'Applying the essential principles of life shall be the only true way of changing one's life,
and only works through honest perseverance of implementing and practicing the principles of life,
which are basically the 'fruit' of the "Spirit." The Unseen God, when ignored leaves a vulnerable
soul to the elements of the world.'
"A spiritual enlightenment is often obtained in the most troublesome times, and likely to become
a lasting resource not found in words on a page."
'It has been declared, through sufferings of Christ, weaknesses of mine
have surely been known about, therefore through prayer communication, and
I'd like to point out, that this is where my concerns are heard and presented before God.'
'I believe the mysteries of God are best dealt with when one has had a deep meaningful
spiritual awakening, then all the paradoxes, metaphors, parables, and symbols shall surely help
in illuminating the deep things that may be in question about God. This shall always be
a personal evaluation of one's own self.'
"Society is bent on the commercialization of God. The commercialization of God is when the importance
of Christ is overshadowed by a culture of money, entertainment, marketing, and diluted doctrine."
"I have come to know prayer to be my quiet time away from worldliness.
It is my time for Spiritual reflection of coming together in the presence of His
Spirit to gather my thoughts, hopefully in likeness with His wisdom. And, this
is possible as long as I remain aware of the principles of life, and applying as necessary."
'A deep sense of God's Spirit shall be necessary in an effectual prayer. And make
no mistake, there needs to be some spiritual harmony and consciousness of the heart,
and then an effectual prayer comes to be. Remember, the heart represents who we are at the center,
it's the place around which our moral, spiritual, and intellectual life revolves.'
"In prayer as all things, there is no substitute for a Spiritual heart. Know this and know it well."
"Be assured, with my spiritual bond in accordance with God's Spirit,
this bond surely carries great influence concerning ('post #1,989')...believe it.
And, many things shared are surely in conjunction with my spiritual bond, which
brings about enlightenment of meaning and substance surrounding God's Spirit."
'The gift of the Holy Spirit is a spiritual lens that helps to give the heart spiritual clarity
and understanding far beyond conventional Christian worldviews, which only tend to dilute
the 'Gift'. The Holy Spirit may come upon anyone at any time, place, and often
under great duress, and perhaps with great fearful overtones. I believe this occurs for a reason.
Complacency surely needs a wake-up call that may produce profound and significant
changes in one's life to bring alignment to and with God's Spirit. A Spiritual awakening is
a life-changing 'happening."
"I stand by words that may hopefully help with accepting the truth, which surely will not
be easy for the stubborn, rebellious, and complacent worldly folks."
"Being thankful for how the inspired wisdom of Christ has surely helped me learn
and understand the necessity of discipline and share this gratitude of love for and about His love and wisdom.
And, I am not rightfully qualified to attempt to change the inspired 'readings" for personal agenda."
'Each personality shall harbor their own insight about the opportunity to serve God.
Serving God may well be of great joy, so long as selfishness has been omitted. Giving God
due praise shows one's real gratitude.'
"Hope in serving God shall be unlikely when selfishness or self-centeredness are involved."
"Thankfully I have not been burdened with this issue. Resentment describes a negative emotional reaction to being mistreated. There is no single cause of resentment,
but most cases involve an underlying sense of being mistreated or wronged by another person.
Experiencing frustration and disappointment is a normal part of life."
'Resentment is a personal issue that has to be dealt with as one so chooses. And if not
reconciled accordingly, one's emotions may not be completely stable. And without the love
of God in the heart, this emotional scar may never fully heal sufficiently.'
"Know that a true spiritual heart has the potential to relieve lingering burdens."
"Strengthening one’s spiritual vision is a lifelong process and is known as discipleship or sanctification, which is a process where believers grow up and mature in their faith. Since my Spiritual awakening and awareness, I have come to some clarity that leaves me with calm and peace and not to get caught up in the Christian worldly foolishness that abounds. I clearly stated my "vision" a decade ago. Many messages would be shared, and the Holy Spirit would be my guidance. It has come to be." I came...I came to...I came to believe. I AM you...You are I.
'Analyzing and sharing scripture may have its place, somewhere, though unlikely to bring lost souls to God in a meaningful way when vacant of how God's inspiration has influenced a life that has changed and the Holy Spirit as guidance. Spiritual truth surely may help one to accept reality, and thereby to find peace and well-being, here in the now.'
"Desires of the flesh surely has a way of eliminating any chance of acquiring spiritual sensibility."
"I believe the Kingdom of God refers to God's reign on earth and consequently, in our hearts.
It is about His kingship and our obedience to His rule. I have come to learn this spiritual realm
surely has to do with the Holy Spirit. I believe this is where spiritual discipline is essential in the
hope of coming to a clearer understanding of utilizing the inspired teachings of Jesus Christ."
'It surely is being witnessed that the Holy Spirit must be vacant in many thoughts on many pages,
as worldly thoughts often desecrate the intended spiritual aspect of the Divine "readings".
Desecration is the treatment of the Bible in a way that is intended to be disrespectful or insulting.
Bible desecration is considered to be blasphemous and sacrilegious in Christianity.'
"Being spiritually qualified in attempting to explain spiritual matters, are few to be witnessed.
“Spirituality” as applied to Biblical faith is understood here, to refer to the relationship between God and man that can be summed up under these attributes: holiness, the gift of the Spirit, life in the Spirit, and the discipline of the Spirit."
"Faith and trust, I find to be since learning God's wisdom, when acted upon,
surely has had a way of changing my life, so long as I continue to strive to maintain the necessary
spiritual discipline"
'The energy obtained through awareness of the Holy Spirit surely has the potential to
strengthen faith and trust, so long as one maintains a spiritual heart.'
"This troublesome world shall hopefully be endured with the guidance of the Holy Spirit."
"Make no mistake, since my commitment to putting God in my life,
it is surely a challenge to strive to live according to God's principles of life,
but by striving to do so, I find my life to be more orderly and manageable as I
have declared in the past as being true."
'I believe complacency shall be a great hindrance in actual discipline in the ability
to practice the "fruits" of the Holy Spirit. The greatest attribute is that of love.
And when love is directly practiced with diligence, a feeling of sound satisfaction leaves
a soul with calmness and a sense of peace, here in the now.'
"Discipline of the attributes of love have the potential to exalt life to new heights.
For strength and courage, love and self-discipline are often overlooked."
"Thank God, a miraculous change occurred in my life once I fully understood
the meaning and purpose of a spiritual heart, and with practice and discipline a spiritual heart
surely brings the cause of God's Spirit to become an undeniable guiding influence
in all my coming and going. This surely helps to stay focused and grounded in striving
to maintain a righteous life the best I know how, never to be all I should be, but surely
to be all I can be with a spiritual heart, here in the now."
'The difference is that a spiritual heart has the potential to change lives that may amaze
even the stubborn and rebellious lives, and of which are surely being witnessed, and one needs not to go
far to witness such conduct.'
"A spiritual heart is the very core of one's relationship and guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Thinking otherwise perhaps more diligence should be exercised inside of the Divine "readings".
"Let go let God. These few words carry profound implications. And I came to learn
the truth of the words. I had to let go of my selfish and self-centered way of life and
earnestly strive to conduct my life according to the Divine inspired teaching of Christ.
Make no mistake, my life surely improved and those closest to me once I started putting
the principles of life into action...believe it."
'Selfish self-centeredness has the potential to destroy the opportunity of experiencing
the calm and well-being of having God in one's life. This surely requires great fortitude
and perseverance and it is a challenge that never ends."
"Undertaking the challenge shall likely not be achievable with an attitude of stubbornness
and self-righteous egotistic agenda that may be present."
"Even though there was a time of great fear in my life when I was out of control,
I am surely thankful for the fact that I made a decision to turn to God for a reprieve
from my addiction. I have sound gratitude for the coming of God's Spirit upon my life,
and for coming to recognize the significance of earnestly striving to apply and act upon
the inspired Spiritual teachings of Jesus Christ that many authors were influenced enough
to put forth the Divine "readings".
'I have also come to learn and accept that the Bible is a story of life, and all the
metaphors, allegorical paradoxes, parables, and symbols to convey a hidden meaning, this is the author's means of
illustrating the inspired reflections passed down from those before them. And knowing to accept
the truth that many different languages and cultures were involved in putting the Divine "readings"
together in a book of profound value, so long as it is not manipulated by erroneous concepts.'
"Erroneous concepts shall forever erase the Spiritual reality and intended purpose. And it has
been warned not to grieve the Holy Spirit. "To grieve the Holy Spirit is an abomination in itself" means that deliberately acting in ways
that goes against the Holy Spirit's guidance, like engaging in sinful behavior or harboring negative
attitudes like bitterness or anger are considered a serious offense against God, essentially a deeply
disrespectful and offensive act against the divine presence within a believer.'
This concept originates from Ephesians 4:30 in the Bible!
"I have learned that Spiritual discernment allows the gift of the Holy Spirit
to bring about revelations of a meaningful purpose and intent in the guidance
of my life and to know things often come about that were not thought of, but yet may
well have relevance to certain circumstances that surely change the perspective."
'I have learned the significance of maintaining Spiritual awareness, remembrance
often comes to reflecting upon the wisdom of inspired teachings to bring about proper
decisions in different circumstances. My awareness of God's wisdom brings guidance
from the Holy Spirit. My changed life surely proves that God's wisdom surpasses
my worldly weaknesses...believe it.'
"A Spiritual life is acquired by perseverance. The Bible teaches that perseverance is a way to grow
in faith and maturity, and is often associated with hope and faith. The Bible also says that suffering
produces perseverance, and that when we suffer with Jesus Christ, we can be transformed and find eternal glory."
"Perhaps there are those who should delve deeper into aspects about Spiritual wellness proclaimed within the Bible."
