It is a comm myth that \u2018you are either spiritual or not\u2019. Everyone is spiritual, it\u2019s just some are more aware of that fact than others.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This article is for you to find out where on the scale you are – just how spiritual you are – but be warned, we\u2019re not going to sugar coat anything!\u00a0<\/p>\n
To analyse this, many would ask if you have vivid dreams, if you see aura colours, if you sense others\u2019 emotions or experience visions of the future\u2026we are going to take a different tact. While all of those things can be spiritual, they are subjective, fleeting and on the lower scale of spirituality.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The depth, level or power of spirituality is determined by the One behind or driving the spiritual experiences or events happening. There is a clear hierarchy – and we want to make sure our Source is right up there!\u00a0<\/p>\n
The highest power? The Creator of the Universe – Jesus Christ\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
If that statement caused you to react, to shudder, to want to close this page – you\u00a0need<\/strong><\/em> to force yourself to continue reading\u2026 The forces you have interacted with so far have been low on the scale of power & authority. In fact, what you have experienced so far has been designed to keep you away\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>from what really<\/strong><\/em> matters.\u00a0<\/p>\n You see, if you are obsessed with working out what that dream means, going to continual conferences to hear the latest \u2018wisdom\u2019, paying for readings and courses, practising meditations and emptying yourself\u2026the less you are able to hear and know the One thing that matters.\u00a0<\/p>\n Jesus!\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Seriously. That One name may one of the only things that makes you shudder – but ironically the only One who can give you true peace. Total, complete, deep, mind blowing, soul replenishing and everlasting peace. There is a conspiracy – a big one – to keep you away from Him and what He offers – Life!\u00a0<\/p>\n We could teach you how to interpret dreams, how to get intone with your spiritual \u2018side\u2019, how to see into the future – but it is all meaningless. You need to know the One who holds everything in His hand and is in charge of everything that has happened, is happening and will happen.\u00a0<\/p>\n Jesus!!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n His power is unlimited – far above anything you have ever experienced or imagined. And the funny thing is, when He gives you something spiritual, it results in the\u00a0opposite<\/em> of what you want and what you see as normal. But it indicates\u00a0true<\/em> power.\u00a0<\/p>\n This is why so many people, seemingly weak, pathetic and disposable, have been able and willing to stand up to the most powerful without fear, without hesitation and without malice. Christians, people who see Jesus as King (not the religious \/ Catholic types!), the most persecuted on the planet, have consistently turned the other cheek, forgiven their oppressors, worked for nothing, donated, legislated, witnessed and sacrificed for those that deserve nothing. Why?\u00a0<\/p>\n Jesus!!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n When He invades, pervades and transforms a life, that life starts to interact with true power. The One who created everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Risen Jesus – the Christ – empowers His people, by sending the very Spirit of God to those who have accepted Him as King\u20261<\/a><\/sup>Luke 24:49 (NLT)<\/strong> And now I will send the Holy Spirit, just as my Father promised. But stay here in the city until the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power from heaven.\u201d<\/em><\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n The Holy Spirit – the most powerful force in the universe – this is what He does:<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Now that<\/em> is real power. Not cheap visions & party tricks – but the real, measurable and actual\u00a0\u00a0transformation of sinful and pathetic souls into something beautiful and powerful! Our very identity and eternity changed instantly & permanently – wow!\u00a0<\/p>\n Not merely<\/em> knowing the future, but knowing the One who\u00a0is in control of the future!!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n I pray that no matter what your background, no matter how many mistakes, no matter how low or down you have been, you would be willing to open your heart to the One who died for you.\u00a0<\/p>\n Jesus Christ!<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n He.\u00a0<\/em>Is. Everything.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n Lord, please forgive me for all I have done. I confess that I have sinned against You and an unable to do anything on my own. Please release me from this sin and change my heart. Help me to live for You instead of myself\u2026\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n\n
