1 Thessalonians 5: 5-6 5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober
Once you accept Jesus as Lord and
Savior, the Holy Spirit comes and dwells in your spirit.
At that time you become the children of the light.
Notice it stated Children… when you made Jesus Christ, the Son of God, Lord of your life, a new spirit was born in you.
This baby spirit has no knowledge, same as a natural born baby.
You and I know that the natural
baby doesn’t know the things of the world and can not protect itself.
This new born natural baby needs parental support, training, feeding and protection from this evil and unsettled world.
You can’t produce a new born baby and expect it to have knowledge like a grown person.
The only thing a newborn knows
is to cry when it is hungry and cry when it is in pain.
Your new born spirit is a baby same as a natural born baby. It too needs parental knowledge and training. Otherwise it will suffer the consequences of being unlearned and untrained same as a natural born baby.
If the natural newborn isn’t trained in the way it should grow it will have a disastrous life. It must be fed and nurtured so it can grow up to be strong and wise.
It is the same way with the
spirit child; it will also have undeveloped wisdom and not have the necessary
biblical skills it needs if you do not feed it the word.
Both babies have to be fed, nourished and have parental training to be used for life’s purposes and Gods purpose.
If you never spoke to your new born it could never speak itself, because it never heard the words to learn to speak.
If you never speak Gods word to
your newborn spirit child it too will never develop in the word. Faith comes by
hearing and hearing by the word of God.It takes words to train both children. Words develop them for the world they must face each and every day.
They will need common language and spiritual language for the development of both natural and spiritual children.
You need to think about what you are feeding your spiritual child. Are you ignoring your inner spiritual child or are you feeding it the word of God, your spiritual child needs more than just one meal a week. Life is not about just having a one time meal.
Your spiritual child needs to be fed often, just as you would feed a natural child.
Proverbs 4:20-23 20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
My son… we are his children. He says, listen to what I am saying, open
your ears to my words, and don’t loose sight of them.
Keep them deep within your heart,
because your heart is this spirit child. The word is life to those who find it,
and health to the physical body or inner child.
Both children win when the word of God is applied to their daily lives.
Everyone wants to go to heaven
but no one wants to die to get there. If you do not feed your natural baby it
will die, if you don’t feed your spiritual baby it too will die.You need Gods word daily to feed your inner spiritual child. If you don’t feed your inner spiritual child it will never mature in the word of God.
No one with common since would take their natural child to
We must not turn our spiritual
child out to the things of this world without the proper training.
What are we feeding our spiritual
child today?
The word to the spirit child is like medicine to the natural child. If your natural child was sick you would take it to the doctor to get it healed.
If your spirit child is sick from lack of knowledge, just feed it the word… it will get well.
Taking care of both children is a
daily thing, but it is something that is necessary to overcome the world, the
flesh and the devil.
