Praise God for everything we learn intellectually, but there are some things and marinated.

You cannot get except for spiritually prophetic words revelatory words by what Elizabeth got that didn't come from her mind. She didn't figure that out.

She had a miracle happen baby in Rome will delete and the baby leaves you want… Like a normal kick of my little baby. It was something different. She felt instantly she was filled the Holy Spirit Holy Spirit came upon her empower. She was anointed and she just began to speak out these words.

Who am I that I should be in the presence of the mother of my own Savior and you don't your mind and get this guy doesn't get that spiritual so is possible. Beloved, that your soul. This is okay can be extremely troubled in the spirit still rejoice. This is very important understand a look at this in Matthew 26 in this agonizing scene at Gethsemane where Jesus knows that the crucifixion is nigh. Verse 37 of Matthew 26 taken with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, Jesus began to be sorrowful and troubled, and then he said to them, my soul is very sorrowful, even to death remain the hair and watch sold to son of God was hundred percent God and 1/2 hundred percent human and your soul can experience pain emotionally so great that a physical phenomenon which eases experience happens medically where blood will begin to come out of your pores.

It is one of the heightened most heightened stress responses. The body can experience what he was saying. Remember, Jesus spoke perfect. Truth be perfectly honest, he said to his friends. This is crushing to myself. He knew what was going to come in wasn't the physical suffering. It was the weight of taking upon himself the sin of the of the pure holy, sinless son of God being treated as if he committed all of our sin case can barely stay alive. Please pray for me. In the end they can. They can stay awake your body just can stay awake so couple verses later. Verse 40 he came to the disciples and found them sleeping what was going on here.

He said to Peter, so could you not watch with me one hour stated they did an hour of intercession from you, watch and pray that you not enter into temptation and then he has this to say the spirit that's the Numa spirit is indeed willing, but the flash body socks in Greek is weak. So in the course of five verses. Jesus has mentioned so so okay troubled to the point of death, the body physical being and the spirit. The Numa of a manner, spirit, soul and body and what he's saying here has been so encouraging to me for many years now. My Christian life that he saying there flesh is weak and you seen that my soul is troubled to the point that I can barely stay alive with the spirit, the born-again spirit is willing, and I wish that English translations would render this by its more common meaning desiring to will is to want or desire willing we say willing, as if would you want to take the trash out honey are I am willing that doesn't mean I want to. It is me is okay, I'll do it. That's not what willing means here. It means more like what is your will. Would you we want more than anything he's saying this spearhead is always willing, always wanting always journey always ready to pray always ready to rejoice this with you is always eager to commune with the Holy Spirit and enjoy peace to all understanding spirit within you is always ready, always wanting to commune with the Holy Spirit, to receive prophetic revelation being tire is not worn-out is not confuse your spirit being is altogether old is gone, the newest, you're a new creature in Christ. You race who can commune with the Holy Spirit time is the only way you can understand how to pray without ceasing. I want to develop my life so that my spirit, my body is tired. My mind is confusing.

My spirit is just continually communing with the Holy Spirit and in the case and, therefore, is to cultivate the life of the spirit.

John 423 Jesus is the meeting with the Samaritan woman and you have this conversation where she doesn't know the things that she saying in and she's talking about where we supposed to worship is on this mountain of that mountain and she talks all this religious stuff and Jesus is ours coming in is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, the father seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit.

God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth, so the mind of my soul to magnify the Lord. My mind is set upon the truth because the truth is God is good God is glorious God is holy God is, the president, Jesus Christ, and I've been set free from the law of sin and death by the grace of God to the cross of Jesus Christ and I recount all of that. So Mary's mind is just a magnifying God for who he is and all that he's gone but she's worshiping spiritually right will have more teaching moment from today's important series better marriage.

We are happy to see Misty Mazzei thanks from Alan write ministries call us at 877-544-4860 877-544-4861 come to our website past Rowan.work these teaching you once again is this goes far to explain what I've been trying to emphasize during pandemic everywhere you go and everybody you talk to is tired and everybody you talk to just confused and worn out when our minds have gotten dishonestly look at the levels of of hatred and disagreement that we got really lose friends over whether they wear a mask or not really what is crazy is crazy is nonsense and is actually happening. Ridiculous. It just shows we gravitate to the mind what we need to do is cultivate a spirit with you and worship. If I'm communing with you together in Jesus name in the Holy Spirit what your opinion is about a master not a mask or vaccine are not worshiping the most holy God talk about life in this audience and wonderful and loving to apprehend this time we got to let our spirit inform our minds. Remember, I love the mind, I'm not denigrating mine. I love the mind. The mind is limited. The mind is limited. Mary's mind could not comprehend all of this. Who could see needed spiritual revelation that the themes the spirit can show you change how you think, or else you will limit your thoughts to what you can understand, and you can't understand enough beloved was thinking about when our kids were little and would go but but we live in my book but I do fun things with the kids you know parents decided to play with your kids you want to be really smart play with and so play with him. I love playing with and we will, and if you make a hole in wanting you got a green golf ball and the green light is on. You get to run over there you will prize a discount on your next game or some like that one is one answer is clear to the kids I said. In addition, if you make a hole in one, you get a dollar that is fun to well I unfortunately neither child got a hole-in-one so neither one got a dollar and will even the man a bad mood. You have different priorities in your home to his how long I would never discipline for a mistake.

I would visit them so I tries and failed to win discipline.

Even versus momentary fleshly you know you get to choose that no no no, their children starving and parts of the world right now and you in a bad mood you did make a hole-in-one no seam for a moment we are playing. People are starving and it's a beautiful day and a beautiful city and your happy family with every resource imaginable and you didn't when a dollar and yet a bad mood when you didn't get in. Here's the thing.

Resuming this illustration is not just that they didn't understand their situation in life is I didn't have any understanding of who their father is stuff for four-year-old understand right now all I know is I didn't get a dollar cost of child O dear child, if you had any idea of the number of hours your father has prayed for you when you sleep at night and he comes in the blazes hands on prophesies and every time you had the smallest earache. He got on his knees before God.

If you had any idea that your daddy would lay down his life for you and what you don't understand child as it will pay for everyone in your horseback riding lessons every ballet lesson and there will cart you all over the nation for speech contest and it would all pay for you to go to University of North Carolina you will be sent any credit card bills. I was I happy to have you been to Starbucks this week and you're worried about a dollar you don't have enough revelation to understand your situation. You gotta get his spiritually to know God is soul magnifies God's joy see my Savior and preach myself happy here falls sometimes on the mount sermon worse than anybody else. Philippians 447 rejoice in the Lord always again I say rejoice, rejoice. Joy again joy again after that re-joints you to do that spiritually.

I've said this so many times but the engagement of worship together releases spiritual power and I don't know how else to say it but we need each other so much because were cultivating life in the spirit. Everything about the man whose have a hard time getting out of bed on Sunday morning his wife to get up on his time, go to church. He said I don't go. She said give me three good reasons are so number one is tired and don't feel like is the number two said church in that good number three said nobody likes me. There she said come on get up honey. He said give me three reasons to go to civil number. Once the church is pretty good sometimes and she said secondly, there are some people like you and thirdly you the pastor that you got up I went to a silly football game in Charlotte last night.

I was so full of foam away far things. I guess they do 1/3 quarter to drive back from Charlotte because I have faith that this does not turn for the better but it didn't.

And so I went to bed late last night and when it would be long involvement I haven't had a no sleep Sunday morning, leaving my body tells me is warm and nice and soft alarm went off. I didn't know where I was in the world. Nobody sustained a bit to my advisor will you can rationalize it with the spirit so the key. Therefore, to rejoicing in the Lord always is not to try to overcome all your circumstances or to have your mind make sense of everything all the time but to keep your spirit and ever-increasing communion with the Holy Spirit and he'll tell your secrets, this goes really far to explain how, for example, but the slides appear.

While all gifts are from God, not all are equal to the body experiences relaxation soul can experience satisfaction. Everything worked out great. My team one know whenever, but the spirit has peace that passes understanding.

Or you could say this way the body against mine is wonderful about is a masterpiece experiences pleasure and soul experiences happiness.

No if things are going great. You just got a great report from one your kids know that he call this week has some good things happen at her work and your parents like that so happy about that. That's great she could call know what you been a good week, but it was happy about that. But what the spirit can enjoy his joy joy so it's okay beloved and endure difficult circumstances and admit that our souls are troubled, and that were bodies, a weary along pandemic but there's an invitation to live spiritually.

Pastor got away during the studio does your past real and sporting good news thought for the day prayer and praise in the spirit pastor elements are close and thought God invites you into a spiritual life and what that means is not at all. The same thing as inviting you into a religious life really is more technically to say that we are comprised of spirit, soul and body. We think about things we feel things with our body, but there is the part of us that is born again. The Ms. in a very real sense in direct communion with God. No spirit communes with spirit and Daniel.

We we spent a lot of time in school growing up educating our minds and we spend some time some of us to trying to train up the body to do some more of that lately. But on the whole, we don't think as much about what's happening with the spiritually and the invitation that we get is for a life that can cultivate prayer and praise in the spirit and your your spiritual being and that gives you intimate access to God and so our bodies can be tired and even hurting and our minds can be confused and we can still be in the spirit is a powerful, today's good news message is a listener supported production Allen Wright ministries
