Who Are You in Covenant With?!!
So, here are two definitions of sensuous:
1) A total devotion to gratifying bodily appetites, often characterized as a sin of the flesh. It is associated with unrestrained, indulgent, and shameless behavior, that disregards moral limits, often translated from the Greek aselgeia (licentiousness/lasciviousness
And 2) A life governed by base, fleshly desires, physical senses, or unbridled lust rather than the Holy Spirit. It is associated with selfishness, debauchery, and wantonness. Often listed alongside sins like sexual impurity and envy. Sensual is also derived from the Greek word psychikos (natural/unspiritual). Again, psychikos interpreted as natural and unspiritual.
“‘And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, ‘Come out of her, my people, so that you will not be partner in her sins and receive her plagues; for her sins (crimes, transgressions) have piled up as high to heaven, and God has remembered her wickedness and crimes [for judgment]. (Even those partakers who justify wickedness, calling good evil and evil good.) Repay to her even as she has repaid others, and pay back [to her] double [her torment] in accordance with what she has done; in the cup [of sin and suffering] which she mixed, mix a double portion [of perfect justice] for her.’
I will never be able to stomach what my Dad sees every day. But it is important that we actively pursue His truth and justice. Asking Him for favor and to put us in a powerful position to be intercessors on behalf of the innocent. As we pray for the downfall of the wicked. I pray that they are revealed and destroyed swiftly. Realize that none of us deserve to live, the connotation of “filthy rags” does not describe our depravity and sinfulness.
I have been watching “Jay for Jesus”. A mighty prayer warrior for the LORD and sister in Christ. It is beneficial for me as I am praying for God’s grace as an advocate for the LORD. Her prayers are pure fire. Eloquently guided by the Holy Spirit. As it is written, she is hiding His Word in her heart that she may not sin against Him. Her prayer life is powerful. While I was being convicted by Celestial, the prophet of the Most High, that we are not doing enough!
As I have been engaging with Jay’s platform, I have begun to recognize what has been evident in my walk with my Heavenly Father. I pray according to the Spirit often, and my prayers are answered immediately. Usually in just a sentence or two. And relatively short. And I fast often. But the Holy Spirit has been impressing upon me, that some things goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. On a deeper level.
You see when Jesus prayed, many times He did not even touch the person or people. It is commanded for a reason. “Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partakers of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure” (1 Timothy 5: 22, KJV). His Words were few but His prayers were powerful. But there is a time, and there are times, when we are told to press in. To go higher in the Almighty Father.
