Concerning the matter of prayer we all need to admit that we don’t really know how to pray and what to pray as is fitting – we don’t know how to pray in such a way that we touch God’s desire and move His hand. This is our weakness (Rom. 8:26-27), and the Spirit with […]
Real Prayers are the Holy Spirit Within Man Expressing God’s Desire Through Man
Praying in the Holy Spirit by Praying in the Mutual Fellowship of the Two Spirits
The real significance of prayer is to contact God in our spirit and to absorb and inhale God Himself. We need to have our mind renewed and any religious concepts removed so that we may see what prayer really is in God’s eyes. In Jude 1:20 we see that we need to pray in the […]
our mingled spirit is a spirit of faith and the way for us to abide in the Lord
Today, we are so privileged to know that the spirit of faith here refers to our spirit mingled with the Holy Spirit! Faith is not in our mind – rather, what we have in our mind what we have is just doubts. Faith is in our spirit because it is mingled with the Holy Spirit! We must exercise such a spirit of faith to believe and speak (see Psa. 116:19 and 2 Cor. 4:13). Faith is a reaction to the appearing of God, and it is absolutely of our spirit. In our spirit we can know God and it is here that we need to live a crucified life in resurrection, just like the apostles did for the carrying out of their ministry (see note 2 in 2 Cor. 4:13).

the Spirit with our spirit is the secret of participating in God’s dynamic salvation
We can be Christians for many years and only “accidentally touch our spirit”, not knowing that we have a mingled spirit and that the Lord as the Spirit is joined to our spirit (1 Cor. 6:17). We need to pray that the Lord would enlighten us to see and know our mingled spirit – the divine Spirit joined to and mingled with our human spirit – so that we may enter into the intrinsic significance of God’s dynamic salvation in Christ (Rom. 8:2; 2 Cor. 13:14; Acts. 26:18; Eph. 1:13-14). If we know our spirit, we will refuse to live, do anything or go anywhere apart not in our spirit! The Christian life is altogether a matter of living and being in our spirit!

the processed Triune God has come into us and dwells in us as the Spirit in our spirit
The Triune God is a mystery – we cannot understand with our limited human mind and understanding HOW CAN IT BE that God is One yet Three. The Father, the Son, and the Spirit are One, co-existing (existing at the same time) and co-inhering (existing in one another). This is a mystery… But what we know from the Bible, especially from Romans 8, is that the Spirit who indwells us brings the entire Triune God into us! What we have in us is a mystery – the Spirit dwells in us, Christ the Son is in us, and God the Father is in us – the entire Triune God is in us, being made real to us and applied to us by and as the Spirit!

experiencing the indwelling Christ – our Christ today is the Spirit in our spirit indwelling us!
When the Lord Jesus was on the earth with the disciples, He was outside of them (He was in the flesh), taking care of all their needs. He was very thoughtful of them – He cared for them, spoke to them the words of life, ministered to them, and perfected them. Because He was both […]
The Lord Jesus is Emmanuel, God with us, even the Spirit with our spirit, so real and available!
This morning I was enjoying some verses that speak about the Lord being Emmanuel, God with us(from the Crystallization-study of Isaiah (1), the message on The Sign of Christ’s Incarnation and the Unveiling of Christ as the Wonderful One. In Matthew 1:23 we read: “Behold, the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a […]
