We can understand ourselves, our callings, our realms and our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ when we are in the “know” about where manipulations happen.
But first, SEPARATION must take place.
Therefore “Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.” (2Corinthians 6:17NKJV)
It’s a command!
There is no other way for us to really gain UNDERSTANDING than to consciously put ourselves in a place daily where we can receive instructions in the knowledge of God. So much is going on in the earth realm and a lot of that is demonic influences constantly pushing a position that contradicts the counsel of Christ. They’ve sneaked into the culture, various systems and people. And these beings are cowards and don’t play fair; which means before most people are even mentally capable of making decisions. They’ve conditioned us to believe lies by creating scenarios that solidify our beliefs that are limiting and false. These beliefs steal from us, they kill and are destructive in nature.
Now when we come to Christ the part of the soul that is called mind has to be told what to believe all over again and it takes time.
A Human is divided into soul, body, and spirit.
- The body is the case (house) for soul and spirit. It has to be healthy. If it’s too weak and sick, the spirit can’t stay in there. If the spirit leaves the body, the body will have no life. So, it dies. Apostle Paul said he disciplines his body.
- The spirit is the eternal part of us. It’s the real us. God is a Spirit; the Father of Spirits and that’s why we worship Him in Spirit and in truth. He is not a soul. We exercise the spirit by speaking in tongues and we always have to yield to the Holy Spirit not feelings.
- The soul (mind, will, emotions) is the battleground. This is where the demonic entities can put thoughts and feelings. It’s where manipulations can happen. That’s why we have to get it to side with God instead by simply giving it what to believe (truth). It’s an intentional decision. We actively choose what to watch and what to listen to. We are simply training the mind to recognize God’s intent. It doesn’t know, we give it the word of God and the Holy Spirit gives understanding. Soul is Soul, Spirit is Spirit.
All these things are not complicated and can be understood but we have to get out of the dramas.
SEPARATION: We make this adjustment in our minds “We have been bought”. We are now God’s own possession when we receive Jesus. There is no point trying to fit in. Then, while we are still studying and still doing other day-to-day activities skillfully. We put systems in our lives that give room for the Holy Spirit to train us and teach us TRUTH because truly we don’t know. If the Holy Spirit doesn’t come in to our aid, we will be messed up for sure.
We always have to depend on Him. This narrow path is impossible without Him.
Now, this is a PROCESS and it takes time. Most of it has to do with us letting God have His way with us and making quality decisions to advance with Him. We will be misunderstood but we have to discern the body of Christ and choose not to compromise. We have all been mingled into one body in Christ which means each person is vital and important, joined to one another. So, the decisions we make affect everyone.
We stay true to the process.
And that’s one thing God has always emphasized for me right from the beginning of this faith journey. How we end is more important than how we begin. We stay in there with Him and we take His word to heart.
Now it can be hard, it can be lonely but we have to remember this is where it really matters. What we do here counts. Let’s stay pure, let’s finish in the Spirit.

Let’s Pray, Friends.
Father in Heaven, thank you for your unfailing love towards us. We ask that you give us spiritual wisdom and insight so that we may know you. We pray that the eyes of our hearts be flooded with light so that we can understand the confident hope you’ve given to those you called. We also pray that we will understand the incredible greatness of your power for us who believe in you. In Jesus’ name, Amen. (Ephesians 1:17-23)
