The Power of the Spirit

Have you ever literally heard someone speak in the Spirit? They are nowhere around you. You have never met them or know anything about them. But you know this because God manifests the action(s) that confirm exactly what you heard.

Albeit this has happened to me many times. But there were two time that were very distinct. Causing me to foolishly stumble into situations that hurt my heart.

Even so, this morning I woke, my first thought was to say that I didn't want this gift, because the outcomes were producing painful emotions. But the Holy Spirit urged me to pray in a different way.

I noticed that God is turning the heart of stone (that I prayed for) back into my heart of flesh. Affirmed by certain attitudes that I take when someone is being petty. Knowing that the original tender version of my heart is who God made me to be. If I even attempt to reciprocate negative energy my spirit cannot rest. My thought lately: "I am not built like that!"

Consequently, for me, this is okay. Having a tender heart does not make me weak. Jesus wept.

Don't Grieve the Spirit

Accordingly, I want to share why the LORD revealed to me that He will not allow the Holy Spirit to be grieved. The Spirit is that tender, softhearted part of the triune. "Vulnerable" to hurt. Powerfully meek. It is hard to explain, but if you have ever felt Him, I mean truly felt Him, then you understand.

Nevertheless, I have to learn how to nurture and guard it. To protect my tranquility.

So, my prayer changed. I asked that if it is Your will then allow this gift to manifest on an exceedingly larger scale. In every area of my life. Additionally, give me the discernment to wait to see the whole matter.

Conversely, what I am hearing in the Spirit, what comes out of someone's mouth, is not necessarily what is in their heart. God may not always reveal the full matter from the start. Like a puzzle, you need Him to guide you to put everything in its proper perspective.

This gift is teaching me that no matter how it looks or sounds, God's ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts. Patience will reveal the intent behind the words.

Always remember this, from "Blade". Played by Wesley Snipes. This is profound. And I live this. "When you know the nature of a thing, you then know what it is capable of"! Say that again as many times as needed, to get it deep down into your spirit.

It is Good to Love

The revelations are that it is okay to love and that it will sometimes hurt. Moreover, it is how you process these feelings that will be the difference between healing, growth, and revelation, or bitterness, hate, and stagnation. The latter can be the precursor or the result of regression. A vicious circle of cynical thoughts and actions.

Furthermore, there is a need to reflect on the importance of protecting your energy. Because with who I am in God, I see the devil coming for me every day through multiple people. (Hence, my blog/podcast entitled "You See Me!!!") God is literally purifying and cleansing my heart. My spirit. And in doing so, I know that I am on the verge of regaining that peace and joy that surpasses understanding. I refuse to lose it a second time. So, expect for it to be a process. If you truly desire it.

What is Rarely Understood

What they don't realize is that God is allowing this to hone your character. Your integrity and your virtue. The supernatural gifts that are in you. But held in abeyance.

And although we are not perfect. God will always reveal the purposes and intents of an individual(s) to His anointed. While continually urging us of what this instability that is being caused in the spirit can produce when we are not cautious. When we don't wait on the utterances that He wants to give. This authenticates the need to be quick to hear and slow to speak.

Besides, when we grow in the Holy Spirit, our gifts will abound. They are given to us to be used, apart from selfishness and ambition. We are to help those who are drawn to us, in meekness and humility.

This Bears Repeating

The Bible tells of many people of God who left off following Him, preferring to walk in darkness. Every word, decision, and/or action helps to facilitate this.

Even so, if I am being shown how easy it is to fall by the wayside, then others have also been shown. God is not a respector of persons.

None of us are perfect. The Word of the LORD says to be holy for He is holy.

Indeed, my questions to you is, are you perceiving what the Spirit is communicating? Thus, without doing so, will make it impossible to guard your heart.

Addendum

To be holy is to be sanctified, consecrated, and dedicated or to be separated from the world and worldliness. As it is written, "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14)

  Don't Worry About Nothing!!! Can I tell you that when you are fretful, allowing someone to "trigger" you. You open yourself up to spiritual distress. Unnecessary persecution from the enemy. Frustrating your spiritual balance. Sending you into mental and emotional chaos. You allow the adversary to rule over your thoughts and emotions. The negative effects are compounded by a slow spiritual and mental recovery. Every time you allow this, it is harder to heal, robbing you of the ability to exercise faith in God's Word. You must remember that we are more than conquerors. Stop and see this ambush for what it is. Speak the affirmations of God's Word. This is why Philippians 4:8 admonishes us, "Finally, believers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is right and confirmed by God's Word, whatever is pure and wholesome, whatever is lovely and brings peace, whatever is admirable and of good repute; if there is any excellence, i

  Don't Profane What is Holy!!! People are committing all sorts of immoral lusts against their bodies. Marrying and in homosexual, bisexual, and polygamous relationships. Truly believing that you can indulge in lasciviousness and see God's face in peace. The worst part is that you are bringing innocent children into the equation. Allowing them to be taunted and scarred by brutal indifference. While exposing them to one of the most demonically, sinister, and perverse entities that walk this earth. A spirit that is so degenerate, it will and has led to bestiality and worse. Now I need you to read or listen to this at least three times. Some may be offended. But because you are leading to the corruption of the innocent. While mocking God when you know that it is wrong. Judgment will be swift and merciless. You have rejected God!!! Did you get that? Because when you sin against your own body. This is a specialized kind of self-hate. Birthed through mental, emotional, psychological,

  Spiritual Warfare is Not a Game!!! This will resonate with those who have a true anointing over their lives. Now more than ever I understand that we truly are in spiritual warfare. God's presence is so powerful that people will tend to remove themselves from your company. Recognize that you need to put on the full armor of God. This can only be attained through intimacy with Him. Meditating in His Word. People say that they want to know God and have a relationship with Him. But can you handle the isolation that comes with this? Malevolent spirits are aware of you, and they will shun you. Or worse. Trust me when I say that even if the person does not know you, the spirit that dwells within them knows when you are of God. You must remain humble as you become more aware of this phenomenon. Because the flesh fights within you every day to be exalted and recognized. Pride is malignant and cancerous. Remember. Spiritual warfare is incarnate and irrefutable.  Cassandra Mack Podcast (spo
