Holy Spirit 19- The Seven Spirits of God- Part 6

By

He is responsible for bringing the necessary and the God- kind of knowledge and information that God deem fit for us to know to us. 1Jn  2:20 says But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. It means all information are at our disposal. But, the fact that all the information are at our disposal doesn't mean we practically know all things. You can have the most advanced dictionary on your table and still not know the meaning of a word.

There is the need for SEARCHING.
The Psalmist says in Psalm  77:6,  I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. However, there are 3 prominent words used for 'knowledge' relevant to our study; GINOSKO, OIDA/EIDO and EPIGNOSIS.

GINOSKO- it depicts the commencement of the process of knowledge. It is related to GNOSIS which means 'knowledge in general'. (Time won't permit me the put Bible references. I have a long way to go).

OIDA/EIDO- it means  AWARENESS.1 Cor. 2:12  

EPIGNOSIS- it is an after-knowledge.  It is related to EPIGNOSKO. It is a knowledge with participation between the knower and the object known thus powerfully influencing him. It is the highest form of knowledge.
You can NEVER ENJOY THE BENEFIT OF ANY TRUTH IN GOD'S WORD THAT YOU DON'T HAVE EPIGNOSIS IN. Dan. 11:32 describes EPIGNOSIS.

It occurs 16 times in the new testament, used twice by Peter in his 2nd epistles while Paul used it 14 times. No wonder Peter says his writings are hard to understand and Festus says too much learning has made Paul mad.
The reason you know scriptures about healing and you are still sick is because the best you have is EIDO KNOWLEDGE. You can never remain the same with EPIGNOSIS. This is the kind of knowledge John described in 1 John 1:1.

Apostle Paul says we should pray for EPIGNOSIS KNOWLEDGE. Eph. 1:17-20, 3:19, Col. 1:9. EPIGNOSIS is a KNOWLWDGE WITH EXPERIENCE.
The end of faith is result. EPIGNOSIS is what produce result.
Don't be a Noise maker as a Christian, you can move to the level of PROVING EVERY TRUTHS IN GOD'S WORD. God's Word is tangible and provable. The Word can become flesh and dwell in your neighborhood. There are things in my life that are no longer prayer points or empty confessions. One of such aspects is my health. I have crossed from darkness into light; from trying to be healed to living in perfect health. Glory to God. The Holy Spirit has opened the seal in this aspect and I have seen into secrets that are hidden from others. Remember, the goal of the Spirit of Knowledge is to move you from general/mere knowledge WITHOUT EXPERIENCE to having a knowledge WITH EXPERIENCE IN SPECIFIC AREAS OF LIFE.

I pray that you will have the EPIGNOSIS Knowledge of what has been taught today and also in these series in Jesus' name.

Next post is THE SEVEN EYES, HORNS and LAMPS.

Prayer of Enquiry

By
PRAYER OF ENQUIRY Prayer is a well established and accepted doctrine in all denominations of the body of Christ. Although, there are differences in our modes of prayer, we all believe in the efficacy of lifting up our voice to God to hear our requests and answer them. As much as we do a lot of this, we don't take the full advantage of it as children of God. We would rather worry and think things through rather than calling on God for help. This can be due to lack of faith in the power of God or being slothful in prayers. Apart from the aforementioned factors that prevent us from enjoying the efficacy of prayers, one key factor that prayer hinges on is praying correctly. To pray correctly simply means to pray according to the will of God. It is easy to know the will of God about sickness and poverty because they are expressly written in bible, but even at this, we still do not get answers when we pray. What you might be missing out may be a simple enquiry. The prayer ...

Holy Spirit 15- The Seven Spirits of God- Part 2

By
We have established yesterday that the 7 Spirits of God describe the 7 fold distinct manifestation of the Holy Spirit and it also describes the perfection of the Spirit of God. The answer to yesterday's quiz is: when God stepped into the matter in Eden, the 7 persons brought by the number 7 are: Adam, Eve, Physical Serpent, spiritual Serpent (the Devil), the Seed of the Woman (Jesus the Christ), the seed of the spiritual serpent (Antichrist) and God Himself . Re- read Day 14 to know how this fit in. Today's Broadcast 2. THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM Is. 11:2, Eph. 1:17 This is the Spirit that reveals to you the PLANS AND PURPOSES OF GOD CONCERNING YOUR LIFE, A MATTER, PLACE, etc. If you will ever know why you are on earth, you need the operation of the Spirit of Wisdom. He reveals EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING about the future. There are 3 prominent Greek words used for Wisdom relevant to our subject; SOPHIA, SUNESIS and PHRONESIS. A. SOPHIA describes the entire wisdom of God. T...

Holy Spirit 4- The Symbol of Dove

By
Mt. 3:16, Mk. 1:10. This typifies the harmless and gentle nature of God the Holy Spirit. He neither FORCE NOR FUSS ANYONE. It is only the Devil that force people and even afflict them without their consent. The Holy Spirit IS NOT a dove; He created the dove. Luke 3:22 says 'the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form like a dove upon Him'. Many have wrongly interpreted this verse and that's why many church logos have the dove as an integral part of it. You need to know that the church can NEVER COME INTO HER FULL POTENTIAL AND RELEVANCE ON THE EARTH UNTIL SHE KNOWS (knowledge with participation-Greek EPIGNOSIS) the Holy Spirit. The person that designed the handbill for EPIGNOSIS Nite had already put a Dove there to represent 'the Holy Spirit'. I told him to remove it. The symbols in most cases are already becoming an idol in many people's hearts and rather than for many to think of the Holy Spirit as a person, they think of Him as a dove/fire/wind,etc. T...
