Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
It has been established that functional spirituality, that is, a spiritual life that is working, is key to an impactful walk with God. Authentic spirituality is key to experiencing the best of God.
The challenge today is that there are many people who deceive themselves thinking they are deceiving God. They come to church to encounter a God they think they can use, and not the God they should worship and serve. It doesn’t work that way!
If you must experience the best of God, your spirituality must be authentic and functional.
Now, a major proof of authentic and functional spirituality is hunger for spiritual things.
The man whose spirituality is real and authentic is hungry for spiritual things.
Matthew 5:6 says,
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Appetite for food is one of the signs to show that someone is healthy. For example, whenever a child refuses to eat, it is a concern for the mother. And even adults, when they are sick, may not like to eat.
So, lack of hunger or appetite (anorexia), most times, is a symptom of a diseased condition of the body.
As it is in the physical, so it is in the spiritual. When the hunger for spiritual things is absent, it is a symptom of spiritual disease. Something is wrong with the spiritual life of the person who has no spiritual hunger.
My counsel is, ask God for a fresh baptism of spiritual hunger to keep your spiritual fire aflame.
Remember this: Something is wrong with the spiritual life of the person who has no spiritual hunger.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Ask God for a fresh baptism of spiritual hunger.
- Practice periodic fasting to intensify your spiritual hunger for God.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask for a fresh baptism of spiritual hunger. I receive the grace to wait on You to have a functional and authentic spirituality, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
