Back to Basics: Heirship (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A lack of conformity leads to a lack of spiritual growth. As we are conformed into the image of Christ we begin the process into heirship. If we are children of God, then we are children of Light. If you are not living a life of light, then you are not a legitimate son. It is what comes out of our lives that proves if we are a true son of God. It is the way we act, think, rationalize, and understand that secures our inheritance as heirs. Has your experience proven your stake in God's kingdom? Do
Back to Basics: Spirit to Spirit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Coming into the kingdom of God we are baptized into Christ's body. Our dead spirit is made alive by the Holy Spirit. With a newly quickened spirit we can communicate and fellowship with God the Father. Unless this quickening happens, one's spirit is totally unresponsive to anything of the spirit realm.

Without a deliberate commitment to be delivered you will not come out of spiritual dryness. The second way to come out is to forsake where you are. You must repent and turn back to the Lord asking Him to flush out any sin that has caused you to drift. Coming out of spiritual dryness requires a certain level of maturity and character. God is after a transformed mind and character tha
Spiritual Dryness pt2 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The first thing we must monitor is what brought us into such a dry place. The causes of spiritual dryness can be independence, disobedience, busyness, and sin. We enter into these usually deliberately. When in spiritual dryness it can seem like God isn't hearing us, but in reality, He may be waiting for us to repent. It is important to constantly check our hearts, thoughts and ways. How have we acted? What have we said? What have we believed? What have we not believed? All these could be reasons
