NOT ALL THINGS MADE BY GOD ARE VISIBLE TO THE EYES, BUT ALL THINGS CAN BE SEEN IN THE SPIRIT. BLESSED ARE THOSE THAT CAN SEE THE UNSEEN THINGS AND ARE READY IN THE DAY OF THE LORD!
What are some of the invisible things we cannot see with our eyes?
We cannot see the wind, but we feel it and watch what it does when it blows soft and when it blows hard. Therefore, we know the thing we call the wind exists.
We cannot see the air. It is colorless, tasteless, odorless gaseous but it carries oxygen that we need to breathe in and out, in order to live. Without oxygen, we cannot live.
We cannot see the carbon dioxide our bodies produce when we breathe out the oxygen we have taken in to live. Yet, we see the plants all take it in and thrive. After it does so to live, it releases gaseous oxygen back into the air. This exchange is needed for man to be and for plants to be. Without this exchange there is nothing good that can exist.
We cannot see fear but it will stop us cold and cause us to tremble. We cannot see faith but faith the size of a mustard seed will move a mountain!
We cannot see God, but we know he exists through His Holy Spirit. We cannot see the Holy Spirit but we can hear the spirit within and feel comfort. All God’s creation is in harmony one with the other. What is not good disrupts God’s harmony among his creation. Through prayer unceasing, we shall know the way to go and know God’s voice when he calls. When He calls, answer and listen to all he says and all he shows to you.
When God speaks it brings peace to your soul and to your spirit. The Holy Spirit will give you discernment so you will choose wisely. Discern all things and trust that the Lord shall lead you in the way for you to go. Do you have peace in your decision? If not, go to the Lord in prayer, read the scriptures and seek discernment in what you are to do. You will know for the Spirit will lead you to the truth.
But, in our lives, nothing shall manifest without first being seen.
We must first see a thing in order for it to exist….we are now in the process of building God’s Kingdom here on earth. Faith is belief in things unseen. So is fear. Fear destroys faith and that is the enemies greatest weapon to attack you with. Fear stops a person and causes them to tremble, to retreat, to not try to win. It causes a person to comply to terrible things that are not good for them.
If we are to see the good things God has planned for us… we must adhere to faith and fear not. You are gifted by God, you are one of a kind. He has given you the gifts to create, to build, to communicate, to worship, to love, to reason, to feel, to choose, to forgive others and He has given you free will to choose. God made you just the way you are in His image. Stand up and stand for righteousness, love God with all your heart, mind and soul, and love your neighbor as yourself. In so doing, you shall do well in God’s eyes.
Follow the voice of God and listen for him to speak. Try all things….remember God doesn’t always speak first, sometimes the devil speaks first. The Holy Spirit will discern for you, therefore discern all things and seek the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul.
God speaks to us through his Word. Read His word to receive instructions for righteousness.
To know what God wants of you, study His word. The word of God has the power to reknew your mind, heart and soul. Prayer is a two way communication. You speak to God and he speaks to you. The spiritual realm is far bigger than what we can ever imagine. The Holy Spirit intercedes for you and as you build a stronger relationship with God, His will manifests within you greatly and you will know if a word is from God or of another spirit. You must diligently seek Him and spend time with the Lord like you would a best friend. Walk close with the Lord God and pray unceasing, having him in your thoughts, and in all that you do. The Lord is in you and you in Him. You are never alone.
Be strong and keep pressing forward into the Kingdom of God. It is manifesting on earth as it is in heaven through each one who believes in Him. Fear not and keep on pressing forward – THE LORD IS WITH YOU ALL THE WAY SO PRESS!

That warfare prayer video was awesome. My favorite aspect was that his words were scripture… which is exactly how we bring down strongholds and principalities. Glory, Holy Spirit, who lives in me! Amen! 🙋🙏
I find it interesting that the pronoun you chose for Holy Spirit was female. Personally, I believe the Holy Spirit is male in that it comes from Father God an Jesus Christ.
The Hebrew word ruach; (“wind; spirit”) is one of the few words that is sometimes used as masculine (Eccl. 1:6; 1 Kings 19:11), but is mostly used as feminine, and in the Hebrew targumim, the “Shekhina”, which is the equivalent of the Holy Spirit, is also feminine. The early Jewish Christians spoke of the Holy Spirit as a feminine figure. It wasn’t until English translations that many things were changed by it’s choice of word to replace what was written and many choices are left to discernment. But, the Holy Spirit is a divine spirit that guides us, teaches us, comforts us, and the Lord said, he would not leave us as orphans he would send the comforter to us. Now…in Jewish tradition it is the woman who cares for the young and the woman who teaches the children among other duties. Solomon refers to the Spirit of Truth as a female aspect, even in the King James Version. But this is a vain thing to debate when the world is burning and spritual warfare is upon us. For the sake of all those who have set conclusions…keep what you believe to be true and you have discerned for yourselves. The Lord said there was no marriage in heaven, and so our souls are of who we uniquely are…we all have a yin and yang within us….so it is so that we have a masculine and a feminine. So what is the forbidden thing in having the comforter a feminine aspect and the Lord and Father the masculine? Or are all with both since we were made in God’s image? Do we all have both? This is a vain subject to debate. For we have all aspects and women have been given a greater share of intuition, the same as we have bodies to bear children. Is this the most important thing to learn of the Holy Spirit or is it most important to learn how to listen to the Holy Spirit as it speaks to our hearts and guides our every move to discern the way to go? We can believe the first Jewish Christians or the modern day Christians…it is each ones free will to choose. That is as far as I will take the debate here. I find no real proof to support Engish translation…if there is some…I will definitely be open to the truth for sure. Let the modern theologist debate the Jewish teacher. I am not qualified. But would truly love to hear the debate.
Very nicely expressed…Thank you
There is only one (all inclusive) pronoun in the Greek: αὐτός – the reflexive pronoun self, used (alone or in the comparative G1438) of the third person , and (with the proper personal pronoun) of the other persons
Derivation: from the particle αὖ (perhaps akin to the base of G109 through the idea of a baffling wind) (backward);
KJV Usage: her, it(-self), one, the other, (mine) own, said, (self-), the) same, ((him-, my-, thy- )self, (your-)selves, she, that, their(-s), them(-selves), there(-at, – by, -in, -into, -of, -on, -with), they, (these) things, this (man), those, together, very, which.
The Holy (Sacred) Spirit (Mind or Mental Disposition) is the personality of Father God and His Son Emmanual who became Flesh. (John1:1-14) The Holy Spirit is the personality of both the Farther and Son. Like Father – like Son. It is not a thirdd person!
One is the loneliest number you will ever find. Two can be as lonely as one, but the number one is the loneliest. I can recall a song that utilized those two sentences from my High School years in the late 60’s to early 70’s, but I’m not sure of all the lyrics. However, they can greatly assist in understanding an important concept. Throughout scripture, one represents unity, and two represents both division and unity. [1 ÷ 1 = 1 and 1 ´ 1 = 1, but 1 + 1 = 2 and 1 – 1 = 0] These four simple mathematical functions utilizing the first two prime numbers (1 & 2) can explain many things. Two is the only even prime number and represents unified duality found throughout scripture.
In the beginning was The Energy. Being lonely, He transformed a portion of Himself into the express image called The Light and gave Him the selfsame wisdom and truth He possessed. Energy now has a son and creating partner, and the two were of one mind and purpose; however, there was still loneliness. Together, they developed a plan to build many mansions (galaxies) in infinite space and proposed to fill it with children, but first they had to create the matter necessary to accomplish the task. With the supreme trimorphic intellect of understanding, knowledge, and wisdom both possessed, it was by the will of the Energy that the Light said, “Let M = E ¸ C2.” [The Big Bang] (Heb. 1:3; Jn. 1:1, 14:2; Gen. 1:1; Job 38:7) The perpetually of all creation had begun.

Father—-Son My understanding is the Holy Spirit flows from the Father to the Son.Therefore they are One .There is no dividing !ine.Total Unity.They see and move as One.They have always been One for the Son was always in the Heart of the Father.
I appreciate this post however the Holy Spirit is. “He” rather than an impersonal it. He is so important to us in our walk with the Lord and as Lord in the church to guide the church always to Jesus.
Actually according to the earliest Christians – all of whom were Jews – spoke of the Holy Spirit as a feminine figure. The link below discusses the main proof texts, ranging from the ‘Gospel according to the Hebrews’ to a number of testimonies from the second century. The ancient tradition was, in particular, kept alive in East and West Syria, up to and including the fourth century Makarios and/or Symeon, who even influenced ‘modern’ Protestants such as John Wesley and the Moravian leader Count von Zinzendorf. It is concluded that, in the image of the Holy Spirit as woman and mother, one may attain a better appreciation of the fullness of the Divine.
Van Oort J., 2016, ‘The Holy Spirit as feminine: early Christian testimonies and their interpretation’, HTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies 72(1), a3225. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/hts.v72i1.3225
And I certainly did not mean for the Holy Spirit to be referred to as an “IT”. Also, keep in mind, the English language was not yet invented at the time of the prophets and our Lord. Jesus spoke in Aramaic not like Shakespheare. And much of the translation in the English word chosen to be used for “he or him” was from a Greek word that could be used universally as He, They, Him, Her, She, Them. So the translators chose what they did as all things were done in the male sense, even contracts up until this last generation. Just saying…. the message not the small stuff is what is important. The arguements over frivoulous details can be forever and gain nothing. But thanks, I will correct it.
You may find this interesting as I did a while back, when I was searching for the truth myself as Solomon referred to the Spirit of Truth which is the Holy Spirit as a female aspect. Now, mind you….no one believed me in my real live world of family, when I so excitedly shared this discernment…except one. And they still don’t. And that is okay. But… here is the Hebrew versions…that I found when I was curious. There are several things I found…and kept to myself for there were bigger issues to address and this was vain to argue. Is the Holy Spirit a Female? | Hebrew Readers Smile.
It must be difficult to have so much knowledge in such a small space as the human brain.I hope one day to have the same issue.Thank you for sharing and loving in the relentless way that you do.May our God always keep you in Peace. Smiling for Joy at having such a wonderful resource as you.Thank you Dianne.
DearJeni,I am not here to debate.A person must live what they believe.But I do know this ,it is easier to turn a ship if it is moving.Therefore continue to move in what you believe to be the right direction.If it is incorrect ,God will turn it ever so slightly to change the direction until it is as He sees it.Our belief should always be in line with His interpretations.My personal understanding is that man was made in the image of God.It was through an operation of God that woman was taken out of man.Therefore I understand that Adam at the time of his creation was neither male or female ,but was in His fullness both.
