The Siprit-Enlightened Mind

Posted 11-29-2016 at 04:11 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

As contradictory as it may seem, many true children of God remain dominated, for the most part, by the laws of their natural or carnal minds.
One reason the Church struggles so much today, is because many Christians still think like the world, and thoughts give birth to actions.


For example, some say, "I won't believe it until I see it." This is the exact opposite of a spiritual mindset.
The natural mind says, "If I see, I will believe."...

Impossible To Be Unfruitful

Posted 11-29-2016 at 04:03 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)


"Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon him while He is near." - Isaiah 55:6


God is calling us to seek Him out. There is something He wants to reveal to us. There is something we don't know, about His PURPOSE for our lives (our DESTINY), and have yet to discover, and it is His desire to reveal it.

We must be a burning and shining people who know where we are headed, fixing our eyes on our destiny, if we are going to awaken broken and disillusioned...

Soaking In Living Water

Posted 11-29-2016 at 03:57 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Do we soak in Living Water? We must return to our Provider daily, just as the manna was provided to the Israelites in their wilderness experience--daily. Yesterday's manna will not do.
As we go on our way, seeds can be choked by life's worries, riches, and pleasures, and they will not mature without soaking in the Living Water (Luke 8:14).

Do we allow God's presence to work in us for His will and His good purposes, creating in us the fruit of the spirit?

Daily Meditations And Affirmations - 78

Posted 11-29-2016 at 09:42 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

1 Corinthians 2:2 - "For I resolved to know nothing (to be acquainted with nothing, to make a display of the knowledge of nothing, and to be conscious of nothing) among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified."

The Holy Spirit within the believer ministers truth by revelation. In other words, it is revealed, not figured out. God does not talk to our brains! He speaks to the spirit of man. Jesus never said that water would flow out of your head, but that, "Out...

Daily Meditations And Affirmations - 80

Posted 11-29-2016 at 09:39 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Matthew 13:26,28-30 - "But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay: lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest."

THE QUESTION WE NEED TO ASK IS NOT "WHO IS A TARE?" BUT "AM I TRULY A WHEAT?" WE HAVE NO RIGHT TO JUDGE, UPROOT OR EVEN TRY TO "DISCERN"...
