"Recognizing your spiritual identity."

Knowing who you are in the spirit is important to your spiritual depth. God wants to give you revelation for the destiny and calling He has for your life. The blueprint for this path can only be accessed in the spirit and understanding our identity in Christ.

"Arming yourself with God’s word."

Our inner life must be governed by the word of God. The Bible acts as a spiritual sword, cutting away false ideas and harmful things of this world that try to attach themselves to our life.

"Pouring your life out for His Kingdom."

Self sacrifice for the sake of God’s purposes and plans cost us. The Gospel is free but it requires those who follow to lose their life so that Christ may live in them instead. When we try to hold on to our life we lose it but through giving it away we gain all that God has for us and more.

"Maintaining inner joy and peace."

The spirit of God in you responds to righteousness, joy and peace. When these states are active in your life it creates an ease of entering into the spiritual life and deepening your walk with God. Fight for your peace and demand your joy.

"Growing in wisdom."

Learn from your mistakes and turn your experience into a wealth of wisdom. Pray for wisdom, the kind that comes from God that is peaceable, pure and from above.

"Daily spiritual upkeep."

Our spiritual battle is won in the day to day upkeep of our spiritual vitality. Do something to feed your spirit daily. The spirit is nourished the most through prayer, fasting and the reading of God’s word. 

 We feed our bodies daily, our spirits need to be cared for also.

"Heart examination."

The Bible tells us we have to examine ourselves. Examining means to search your heart asking the Holy Spirit to reveal hindrances to your spiritual growth. Once these blockages are removed it opens our heart more and more to be able to enter into deeper levels of the spiritual journey.
