“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)
Before things go wrong, the expectation of worse happening torments the mind. If we allow and fertilise such thoughts with information available on the internet, we make the fear in the mind be enlarged and the thoughts are polluted. Many sicknesses starts in people’s mind and magnified before they settle in the body and manifest. This is the plight of human race now and no counselling advices and encouraging good words will solve the problems. Only by replacing the spirit of fear by the spirit of power, love and sound mind. This is spiritual warfare and we have to deal spiritually.
Spirit of Power:
Jesus said, “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”” Acts 1:8 (NKJV)
Without power or energy nothing works in the world physically and spiritually. Jesus said unless you receive this power that is given from above you should tarry in one place and in accord with other believers, ask, seek and knock till you receive. So we can see Holy Spirit power is needed to overcome the spiritual problems. All other physical methods are not solving the problems but giving only temporary relief. Many diseases are not curable — even for common cold there is no medicine invented to cure so far. Depending on any other source, other than the power from God, are leading people to suffer a lot in this world. Whereas people are wondering why God is not doing anything!
Spirit of Love:
“Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” Romans 5:5 (NKJV)
People talk about love a lot and think they have perfected in love by showing human love. This love is emotional and limited compared to God’s love which is greater than mother’s love. This kind of ‘Agape’ love one can receive only through the anointing of the Holy Spirit and practising in cooperation with Him. Spirit to spirit God can impart His love into you which is otherwise not possible through soul and body.
Spirit of Sound mind:
“For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 2:16 (NKJV)
We get one in the spirit with the Lord by the power of the Holy Spirit, we can access to the mind of Jesus Christ who is in the Spirit form working in this world. God is still at work and He draws people towards Him and gives His own mind to overcome fear and the torment that follows. Let us come out of this bondage, slavery, again and again to fear and get into trouble and sufferings by receiving the Holy Spirit of God who is poured into all flesh at this end time. Jesus is calling and waiting for people to come to Him to get delivered.
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.”” Romans 8:14-15 (NKJV)
