God’s Spiritual vitality knows our nature, do you?
Were you conceived to bond with Scripture, communicate with Churchgoers, or petition God on the behalf of others? Is the feeling uncontrollable almost compulsive at times? Don’t let me startle you, but there are some who are born to Renew Spirits. In our book called Born for Friendship: The Spirit of Sir Thomas More; we are told Compulsive praying is considered pious. I feel it’s the Holy Spirit whirling in a flurry of Spiritual Energy.
Once tapped, God’s Spiritual Vitality knows our nature. Writing about Sir Thomas’s devoutness Basset wrote, “Following the example of St. Jerome and others, He selected certain Psalms of which he made a Psalter or compendium of psalms…reciting them Morning, Noon, and Night adding seven Penitential psalms and Litanies.”53 There are many Clandestine Christian’s whose devout ways go unnoticed. Others are censored or locked away because of they cling to Christ. “But in the Church of marvelous antiquity one thing remains true, angels and saints pray impulsively to God.” 53
“Examine yourselves to see if your faith is really genuine. Test yourselves. If you cannot tell that Jesus Christ is among you, it means you have failed the test. I hope you recognize that we have passed the test and are approved by God.
We pray to God that you will not do anything wrong. We pray this not to show our ministry to you has been successful, but because we want you to do right even if we ourselves seem to have failed. Our responsibility is never to oppose the Truth, but to stand for the Truth at all times. We are glad to be weak, if you are really strong. What we pray for is your restoration to maturity.” (2 Corinthians 13 NLT)
Born again Christians are nourished with Truth through religious Festivities. The Glory of God’s word overcomes barriers to entry, barriers to exit, and barriers to confide in His works. There is a soul in each person that seeks the Body to which we cleave; the Church. Now is the time to remove its undergarments and expose our Nature in YOU!
