YOUR MIND CAN BE AN ENEMY OR FRIEND OF GOD

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

(Romans 8:5-7)

The carnal mind and sense ruled world is influenced by demonic powers to keep you from being in agreement with God Almighty!  In Mark 9:23 Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."  The carnal mind is a mind that lives and thinks in the sense realm.  A person ruled by their senses is a person who operates and believes only the things he can see, smell, touch, hear and smell.  A person who lives in the Spirit, lives in the promises and faith in the Word of God.  Hebrews 11:1 states, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."  The Word of God is Spirit and Life.  In John 6:63 Jesus says, "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing.  The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life."  When a Christian believes or prays then their desires are first birthed in the Spirit and then manifested here in the natural realm.  The carnal or sense-ruled mind argues and fights against the desires, healing, will and power of God Almighty from manifesting in their life.  Matthew 13:58 states about Jesus, "Now He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief."

You must be in agreement with the Lord Jesus Christ before He can Release a miracle in your life.  If you have doubt or unbelief He cannot interfere in your life.  You must be in complete agreement with Him.  A dedicated life of praying in the Spirit will bring the desires and will of God Almighty into your Spirit.  This will bring you to the place where you will become one with Him in the Spirit.  First Corinthians 2:14 states, "But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."  God Almighty wants you to be a vessel that He can pour out His power through you to this world!  You must be in agreement with Him.

So Jesus said to them, "Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.

(Matthew 17:20)

. . . while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

(2 Corinthians 4:18)
