Focusing On The Spiritual Realm

Those who walk in Holiness will change the course of history!

Behind the visible is the invisible.  Behind the carnal, the spiritual.  The spiritual is decisive when you have victory in the spiritual realm, you have total victory.  Everything that follows in the natural historical social plane is the result of what has been achieved in the spirit.  This is why the ekklesia is perfectly able to change the course of the natural and historical.  All that is needed is that we get the victory in the spiritual.

It is written by THE SPIRIT in Isaiah chapter 24:

21 In that day, the Lord YAHWEH will punish heaven’s host and the kings of the earth.

22 They will be gathered together and locked up in a prison like prisoners in a pit, and after many days, they will be punished.

23 Then the sun and moon will hang their heads in shame, for YAHWEH, Commander of Angel Armies, will reign! He will manifest His glory on Mount Zion in Jerusalem, before all her elders!

Notice that there is a separate punishment, first in the spiritual, heaven’s host, then in the physical, the kings of the earth.  If we focus on the spiritual rather than simply responding to the physical, we will impact the physical.  The physical follows the spiritual.

Paul brings this point into clarity as he wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2nd Corinthians chapter 10:

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.

4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds of satan in the unseen realm,

5 casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

In other Words, for although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with Divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide.  We can demolish every deceptive fantasy that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the True Knowledge of God. We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One.

When we have a spiritual conflict, what kind of weapons do we need?  Spiritual weapons!  You and I have the means to intervene where the issues truly lie, the spiritual realm. 

It is easy to focus on the natural at the expense of focusing on the spiritual.  Our soul wants to focus according to the five physical senses as though you can achieve sustained victory in the physical only.  The root of the problem is in the spiritual realm. 

We are to cast down imaginations and reasonings that attempt to draw us away from the root of the problem.  We are to bring every thought to the obedience of Christ.  We achieve this when we walk in Holiness and are led by The Holy Spirit.

Reasonings, imaginations, knowledge, and thoughts are all controlled by the unseen realm.  When you understand this Truth, you will view the actions of men in a different light.  GOD has given us spiritual weapons that will ensure spiritual victory.  It is up to us to use these spiritual weapons rather than expect the physical realm to be corrected by any other means.
