Echolocation :-)

This week we encountered a new word in English class. The spiritual implications do not escape me. Echolocation is an intuition, a sixth sense if you will that nocturnal animals have to help them find their way to food and home in the dark.

Ephesians 2:2 states this…And you were dead in the tresspasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

WOAH! There is so much to unpack form this verse, and I asked God’s sacred Holy spirit to enlighten us as I type because I don’t often know all He will reveal as I write a message He puts on my heart.

First, do you know that we are in a battle and you have an enemy that wants to destroy everything good in your life, your family, your future, your identity…the world for that matter? The verse describes him as the prince of the power of the air.

Second, do you know that there are means in which you communicate that is not visible and audible and it can be picked up in the air? Just think about the technology in the world today? Wi-fi? Please do not ask me to explain it but I see the effects in my household when that wi-fi light is green or red 🙂

Third, do you know that sin causes death? Both spiritual and physical?

Fourth, do you know there is a way to no longer walk in the death of tresspasses and sin so pervasive in this world? That is THE GOOD NEWS! You see our lives communicate messages in airwaves or in frequency pretty similar to echolocation. To change the frequency of your life to airwaves of victory you have to receive Jesus Christ as your personal saviour. That is the start of your path to victory and you would need discipleship to stay on that path by people who hold us accountable to the Truth and help us in the battle, always pointing us to Jesus. Remember it is a battle, now you will need to learn the rules of engagement. Find a healthy church and ask God’s spirit for guidance.

Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved-you and your household. (Acts 16:31)

Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)

Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle. (Psalm 144:1)

If you are a human being you will try to make sense of the world around you. How did I get here? How does the world work? Why? What? How? There are so many questions and all the answers can be found in the pages of the longest love letter ever written, the Bible. It is the living, breathing, utmost authority-The Word of God. It can stand up to our intellect, our questions, our doubt….but it is a supernatural book, If you approach it with an open heart in search of the truth, God’s spirit will open up the scriptures to you. Jeremiah 29:13 says: If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.

Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. (Joshua 1:8)

Are you seeking Truth today? Look no further. God always delivers on His promises. For the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if you return to Him. 2 Chronicles 30:9b

Till next time 🙂
