GIVING YOUR FASTING A DREAM BIGGER THAN THE WORLD(2)
GIVING YOUR FASTING A DREAM BIGGER THAN THE WORLD(2)
Hebrews 5:14 states that, "But solid food is for full-grown men(the matured), for those whose senses and mental faculties are trained by practice to discriminate and distinguish between what is morally good and noble and what is evil and contrary either to divine(spiritual) or human law."
The above scripture explains in both physical and spiritual dimensions; the physical function being a shadow of how the spiritual dimension works, whereby, solid spiritual food is for spiritually matured, for those whose spiritual senses and spiritual minds are trained by practise to discriminate and distinguish between what is morally good and noble and what is evil and contrary.
Faith is the response of the human spirit to the word of God. And the human spirit responds through his spiritual senses and spiritual sensations. Without faith, it's impossible to please God, because God is a Spirit who lives by the spiritual world. And so we can only relate with Him by faith.
When we relate with Him by faith, what is invisible to others, becomes visible to us. What is inaudible to others such as the spiritual voice of God or of His angels become audible to us. What others cannot touch, feel or sense becomes something solid and real to us. That's what faith is!
Fasting and praying does not change God because you've got to consider His willingness, readiness and providence to unlimit people's spiritual senses and spiritual sensations already manifested in the scriptures to let us know that God always cares and wants to see people's spiritual senses and spiritual sensations being unlimitted through our fasting and praying, since in the first place, He is the One who actually wanted all our spiritual senses and spiritual sensations to prevail and function more than our physical senses and physical sensations, and that the function of our physical senses and physical sensations be subjected to the function of our spiritual senses and our spiritual sensations.
Therefore, the function of our physical senses and physical sensations to the physical world is a shadow of the function of our spiritual senses and spiritual sensations to the spiritual world.
So, when we start fasting and praying for God to unlimit people's spiritual senses and spiritual sensations, we're not changing anything about God. God always wanted people to live by the unlimitted function of all their spiritual senses and spiritual sensations. we are not the inventors or discoverers of trying to unlimit people's spiritual senses and spiritual sensations. Even though this is something that may have never happened before to the human race, it doesn't mean it wasn't there. It was always there. We just didn't become conscious enough about it. This is not a new grace. God already did everything He needed to do before we came in the scene.
What we're doing is extend that specific grace towards people.
Fasting and praying makes it consistent/adaptive for God to unlimit people's spiritual senses and spiritual sensations which would be inconsistent/inadaptive for Him to unlimit their spiritual senses and spiritual sensations had we not fasted and prayed.
