The reason we must worship the Lord in spirit is because that’s the only part of us worthy to approach the Lord. When we are born again, we become brand-new creatures in our spirits (2 Corinthians 5:17). That part of us is identical to Jesus (1 Corinthians 6:17 and 1 John 4:17). It is created in righteousness and true holiness (Ephesians 4:24). It stays pure and holy even if we sin, because it’s been sealed by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13). It’s sanctified and perfected forever (Hebrews 10:10-14 and 12:23).
When we worship the Lord through our born-again spirits, we have access right into the holy of holies (Hebrews 10:19) without any fear of rebuke. Those who come to the Lord overwhelmed with their unworthiness are not in the spirit, but in the flesh. That will never please God (Romans 8:8) or us. It’s only in discovering who we are in the spirit through our new relationship with Jesus that we can ever successfully worship the Lord.
Have you ever felt like there's more to your Christian walk than what you're experiencing? Do you ever have trouble living the life you know God has called you to live? Understanding the difference between your spirit, soul, and body might be your key to going from frustration to fulfillment! That's where Andrew Wommack's Spirit, Soul & Body series comes in.
In this series, Andrew dives deep into what happened in your spirit when you received Christ, how your spirit, soul, and body interact, and how to see yourself as God sees you in your spirit. By the end of this teaching, you'll have the tools you need to overcome sin, deepen your relationship with God, and truly live out your identity in Christ.
"I call this revelation Spirit, Soul & Body. That’s not a catchy phrase, but it’s descriptive of the way the Lord revealed these truths to me. I’ve come to know I’m a spirit being who has a soul and lives in a body. But the real me is my spiritual person. And it’s in the spirit that I’ve been totally changed and made just like Jesus." - Andrew Wommack
What a wonderful promise! The Holy Spirit will show us things to come. If we will listen and receive this ministry of the Holy Spirit, this will change our lives. We can avoid many problems and take advantage of opportunities that we would otherwise miss. Jesus had just revealed a whole new way of relating to God in John 16:8-11. The Holy Spirit wouldn’t be convicting people of individual sins but of the singular sin of not believing on Jesus. That’s the root of everything. And then the Holy Spirit would reveal to us that we are the righteousness of God in Christ (John 16:10) and that Satan has already been judged (John 16:11). Then Jesus said He wanted to tell them more, but they couldn’t receive it yet (John 16:12). Here, He spoke about how the Holy Spirit will lead them into all of these new things. So, receiving these revelations from the Lord that they were unable to receive at that time was dependent on them receiving this ministry of the Holy Spirit. If we don’t receive this positive ministry of the Holy Spirit that Jesus revealed in John 16:8-11, our further revelation from the Holy Spirit will be blocked. What a powerful truth. This elevates the necessity of understanding and receiving this positive ministry of the Holy Spirit to an essential ingredient of revelation knowledge.
A guide doesn’t do everything for us but rather leads us. The Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth, but we have to follow. We have to go to the effort of studying, trusting that the Holy Spirit is leading us.
