So this is going to be a little spin-off from a this livestream:
I understand that for many spiritual warfare / deliverance ministry is weird/different. Yes it is. But isn't this what the Bible says. I think most disciples need to upgrade their approach to how they view the Bible. Most people see it as historical and limited to this earth realm. We tend to forget His Living & Written Word is eternal in ALL of the heavens.
So I find it funny when people read about the other-world events in, say, Ezekiel, Daniel, the book of Revelation and can accept that but when I talk about it they think I'm crazy. Lol. I, at times, think about there the bible is leading us.
So I wanted to take some time to focus on what does the Bible actually say about how WE are not of this world!!!
So when we pray "Mat 6:10 let Your reign come, let Your desire be done on earth as it is in heaven" should we be surprised then that actually happens?
Yeshua/Jesus tore the veil between the heavens so that we can have direct access to the Father.
The things I and others experience in deliverance ministry is literally 'out-of-this-world' as we deal with different realms - mostly demonic. I'm not trying to glorify the demonic but I can't ignore that real reality either.
The Bible says
Pro 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:
Mat 5:28 “But I say to you that everyone looking at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
So in addition to Yeshua/Jesus making it harder to live out Yah's/God's commandments (but also easier at the same time IF we are empowered by The Ruach haKodesh/Holy Spirit), our thoughts are really our reality. Even Paul says in Ephesians 6:12 we wrestle not against flesh & blood but demonic spirts (The Hebrew word for spirit is 'ruach' which is like wind or breath but these spirits are much more than those earthly manifestations/glimpses).
All of this ties into soul-fragments, different realms/universes, etc. but I'm not going to get into that as you can watch the various WWY teachings to get caught up on those concepts.
I'm just saying there is much more to our existence that our existence that our physical reality. We actually see things backwards as I can argue/debate that we are more spirit than soul & body. The Bible is actually about trying to get us to grow our human spirit IMHO.
Heaven is so close to us we need to live from that place.
Mat 3:2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
I can't say I'm there 100% as there is a part of me that definitely has to live in this earthly realm with all of its distractions, needs, and temptations but I'm trying to grow in allowing my human spirit to lead me.
Do you know of any other verses that illustrate how we are not of this world?
If so, I ask that you add them in the comments.
I pray this helps you in some way.
Shalom,
Noe
