Another
thing you must do to enhance your sensitivity to the Holy Spirit is to increase
your feeding on the word of God. Jesus said, “Man shall not live by bread alone
but by every word of God.”
The word of God is as critical to your spirit as food is critical to
your body. There are other books written about God or written about the Word of
God, but nothing can substitute feeding on the word of God itself - the Bible.
A Christian increases the feeding on the Word of God by studying it personally. Feeding of the word is in different stages:
1.Read the
word of God:
Establish a consistent feeding on the Bible. Read it more and more. In
The Dream Centre Church, we encourage every serious Christian to read at least
ten chapters of the Bible daily, just as a general reading. You will face a demonic resistance to reading
the Bible personally, such as sleepiness. If you feel sleepy while reading it,
stand up and read it aloud. That way, you are sowing the word into your spirit.
2.Study
the Word of God:
After reading the Bible, then study it. You can study a subject, e.g.,
faith, or study a character, e.g., Jesus. It is highly recommended to get tools
that will enhance your Bible study. Get a good Bible, a concordance, a
notebook, a pen. Write out your findings, the communications of the Holy Spirit
to you while you study the Bible.
3.Meditate
on the Word of God:
Meditation means to ponder upon, fix upon the mind and to mutter it back
to yourself. Meditation does to your spirit what digestion does to the food into
your body. It is the meditation on the Word of God that converts the spiritual
energy in the truth of the meal of the word of God into your spirit.
PRAYER: Holy
Spirit, as I commit to the practices of reading, study and meditation of your
word, open up the substance within your word, until revelation of the truth
comes upon my spirit, in Jesus Name Amen.
