2Corinthians 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
We have been designed to function in different offices of ministration to the glory of God. It's amazing to know that we have been predestined from the foundation of the world, not to carry mere letters of the alphabet, but the word who is the Spirit of God.
The letter is just a means of communication, not the real word. The word is a Spirit, delivered to us from the throne of grace. When we read the scripture, the Spirit of God in us pick the revelatory knowledge and give us the word to minister. Most times, we receive the word without reading the Bible. This is because the word of God in us is the Spirit of God, who can't be limited by how frequent we read the letters.
Those that carry only the letters will die, for the letter kills. The letter has no life. The letter has no revelation. The letter has no presence of God. It's the Spirit that give life. Seek the guide of the Spirit. Don't struggle to do it your own way, for there's no life in any endeavor without the Spirit of God.
Let's pray together.
Dear Father of light, thank you for your Spirit in us. Please by your Spirit let your life overwhelm us, in Jesus name. Amen.
