The work of the Holy Spirit: Being Overcomers
Paul said this in Eph. 3:19 ... that you might be filled with all the fulness of God. and Eph:3:20 ... according to the Power that worketh in us. Every Spirit filled believer has in him or her, on account and ready to use, all the power that we will ever need to put us over in this life. The problem is we have become creatures of the senses, if we can see it, feel it, taste it, hear it, or smell it must be real. But the bible says "we walk by faith, not by sight (Cor.5:7). We must believe what the word of God says, regardless of what our feeling tell us. Feelings are the voice of the flesh. If you are walking by feelings, you are dominated by the flesh. But the Bible tells us to crucify the flesh. If the flesh is crucified, the voice of the flesh is also crucified. One of the powerful and effective ways a believer can pay the price for the power of God is through fasting and prayer. Fasting brings your flesh and soul into subjection to your spirit-man. It breaks down the will of your carnal flesh and mind so that your born-again spirit can be in control. It is important to keep in mind that although fasting and prayer are powerful tools, they are not designed to move or to change God. They move and change you. When your spirit-man is in control, you put yourself in position to experience God's power. God want all of us to live in the Supernatural, but most are content with living the normal christian life. Are you willing to live beyond the cross, where the risen Savior is waiting to enpower you? Don't look outside for help, look inside "to Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us" Eph. 3:20.
