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. (1 Corinthians 2:14, KJV)
Back in the days when I was much younger, whenever I heard pentecostal preachers give the word of prophecy, I just laugh and say; na so e dey be? Little did I know that it was great power at work! But that I didn’t see because the carnal nature operating in my life at that time and thus saw spiritual things as foolishness.
When Elisha the prophet gave the word of prophecy in 2 Kings 7, it was carnality that made the Special Adviser to the king say; it cannot be! Because he did not understand spiritual laws.
The carnal mind is a mind debarred of spiritual understanding. Not only does it not understand spiritual things; it is an impossibility to do so. The carnal mind cannot spiritually repent. Therefore it is not “free.” It is in fact, enslaved to sin and we know that no “slave” is “free.”
After I became born again and started understanding spiritual laws and knew I have authority in Christ Jesus, a dear friend who was in the Eastern part of Nigeria called me to share a challenge the sister inlaw had at that time and I spoke the word in faith according to the word of God in Job 22:28. Whoever saw me walking on the road that day would only wonder what was going on in my head because a few hours later I got a testimony. I remember I couldn’t help wearing the biggest smile ever.
I do not know what lies the devil have told you that you now doubt everything, even the word of prophecy meant to transform your destiny for good, but if you open up for God this morning and allow Him work on your heart according to His word in Ezekiel 36:26, your life will never be the same again!
I decree, that which your heart greatly desires in line with the will of God for you, your hands shall receive them, in Jesus name!
It is well with you.
