GREATER HEIGHT

 


  


Welcome onto blog titled obstacle on the path of spiritual awakening. Metaphorically (I.e speaking or thinking in a metaphorical way. It's like using a comparison or analogy to describe something, without saying it's literally true), a deeper connection with God means your spirit and God's spirit vibe on the same frequency. It's like having an inner GPS that guides you, comforts you, and gives you wisdom. On spiritual growth, achievement, or deeper connection with God.  

Having a deeper connection with God, refers to intimacy, trust, or aligning with His will.

  "Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you." Approaching God with sincerity invites His presence”. 

[James 4:8]). 

HOW TO CULTIVATE YOUR SPIRITUAL GROWTH 

To be spiritual awoken as a christian, someone must abide in Jesus Christ 

"Abide in me, and I in you... apart from me you can do nothing." Jesus emphasizes staying connected to Him for fruitfulness.

John 15:4-5

Furthermore,

"For in HIS presence is fullness of joy." Being in God's presence brings deep fulfillment.

Psalm 16:11

just like Apostle Paul intended to know more about Christ in Philippians 3:10 (intimately, seeking a deeper experience of God's power and presence). You aspire!

How To Deepen your relationship or connection with God involves:

  • Prayer and listening: Talking to God and hearing His voice.
  • Obedience: Aligning life with God's word.

  "I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth." This psalm references looking to God for help in reaching greater heights. (Psalm 121:1-2)

  • Surrender: Yielding to His will and purposes etc

"But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint." This verse talks about rising to greater heights with God's help.

Isaiah 40:31

Hope in the Lord: Trusting in God's goodness and promises gives us strength.

Renew your strength: God's power replaces your weakness.

Soar on His wings like eagles: Rise above challenges with God's help.

Run and not grow weary*: Face life's demands with endurance.

Walk and not be faint: Navigate difficulties with steadiness.

  BENEFITS FROM TRUSTING IN GOD’ STRENGTH 

Our teaching reminds us that trusting God gives us supernatural strength and endurance. Especially, from 2 Corinthians 12:9 says, "My strength is made perfect in weakness." This verse also remind us that God's strength shines through our weaknesses.



When you trust in God's strength, you could:

- Find peace in uncertainty

- Overcome challenges with faith

- Experience growth and transformation

In conclusion, "greater height" symbolizes striving for more, trusting in God's strength, and deepening one's faith.

  "...and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." This verse talks about experiencing God's love and reaching a greater spiritual height.

Ephesians 3:18-1

What practices help you deepen your faith? Or is there a specific area you'd like to grow in?

Faith That Overcomes

Image
Pioneer of Mobile gospel ministry Pastor Akinyemi S Olatokunbo, welcome our audience, across the globe. Onto one of our epistle blog titled, obstacle on the path of spiritual awakening. To come and find enough strength in God's unwavering Presence. In the face of adversity, we often find ourselves asking, "Can I really overcome this?" The answer lies not in our own strength, but in the unshakeable foundation of our faith. The Bible is replete with examples of individuals who, despite seemingly insurmountable challenges, chose to trust in God's sovereignty and emerged victorious. Abraham, Moses, David, and countless others demonstrate that faith is not the absence of fear, but the courage to trust in God's goodness and power. When we face trials, we're tempted to focus on the problem rather than the Problem-Solver. Yet, Scripture reminds us that "with God, all things are possible" (Matthew 19:26). Our faith is not a magic wand, but a powerful tool tha...

Rising Above Weakness Like King Nebuchadnezzar

   Hey! As a Christian, tonight's cross over service promised to usher in the New year 2026. Accept my congratulatory message, “Happy New year” from the pioneer of Mobile gospel ministry (Pastor Akinyemi S. Olatokunbo).  I am also imploring those spiritually awoken not to be carried away by its unnecessary excitement. For our Christian faith required us to be intentional, if we would rise above our weakness like this regenerated king of Babylon”.  “ Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase” .  Daniel 4: 37 Human weakness could also be referred to as limitations, vulnerabilities, and imperfections e.t.c or classified as: 1. Emotional Weakness: Struggling with anxiety, fear, or anger. 2. Physical Weakness: Dealing with illness, disability, or fatigue. 3. Mental Weakness: Battling with doubts, confusion, or addiction. 4. Spiritual Weakness...

We pray that Almighty God would grant us enough strength and wisdom for proper heavenly boarding.  So as not to miss the redemptive flight of Christ to peaceful heaven. “For our citizenship is in heaven, as we eagerly await Christ's return.

[Philippians 3:20-21]. Without neglecting, what would become the fate of a disobedient passenger that missed the free first flight of Christ, hum!  On this our communal flight board tagged, “Overcoming obstacles on the path of spiritual awakening.
