HOW TO AMAZINGLY LIVE BY THE HUMAN SPIRIT(1)
HOW TO AMAZINGLY LIVE BY THE HUMAN SPIRIT(1)
Matthew 4:4 states that, "But He replied, It has been written, Man shall not live and be upheld and sustained by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God. [Deut. 8:3.]"
According to 1 Corinthians 15:44 which states that, "It is sown a natural (physical) body; it is raised a supernatural (a spiritual) body. [As surely as] there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual body.",
This means that there're terrestrial bodies and celestial bodies. Terrestrial bodies are physical bodies meant for the physical world. Celestial bodies are spiritual bodies meant for the spiritual world.
We are spirit beings with physical bodies. We are not physical bodies but we have physical bodies. Your terrestrial body is the house of your celestial body. Your celestial body lives through your terrestrial body. Our celestial bodies are spiritual bodies that have potentialities and capacities to operate in the heavenly realm like any heavenly being in heaven.
The difference between the way we assimilate spiritual food on earth is different from the way it's done in heaven. Here on earth, we have to digest God's word with prayer and fasting so that it can produce on earth what it produces in heaven. The word of God through fasting is typified by the intensity and the fullness of the revelations we get when we fast.
Why would we need to eat in heaven?
Now, in heaven, there's no fasting to encounter deeper revelations because we will not have physical bodies by then. And so, there will be no abstaining from bread, yam, rice or coca cola. There's a better kind of food in heaven. And the reason will be for your spiritual body. Not because if you don't eat in heaven you're going to die. This is what happens.
Revelation 22:1-2 states that, "
'1' THEN HE showed me the river whose waters give life, sparkling like crystal, flowing out from the throne of God and of the Lamb
'2' Through the middle of the broadway of the city; also, on either side of the river was the tree of life with its twelve varieties of fruit, yielding each month its fresh crop; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing and the restoration of the nations. [Gen. 2:9.]"
There're different kinds of food in heaven. The food you eat for your celestial body in heaven is symbolic of what your spirit needs.
Without eating respective kinds of food in heaven, you see less. There's the food you eat in heaven and your understanding is increased. When you're hungry, your understanding will be less. And so you take that food and eat it, and your understanding increases.
When you see the glorious love of God in heaven and you eat less of that food, you see less glory of His love. Then you go to that place, take that food and eat it, and you get more visions. You see more of that glorious love from the throne of God.
There're words in heaven you cannot hear. They become dull. But when you eat that food, the hearing of your spiritual ears will be better.
