Absolute Surrender

A word of Wisdom
On Absolute Surrender

1 Corinthians 14:14 KJV
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

If you have not received the gift of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues,
You will not be able to understand experientially,
even in the uttermost of your natural intellect,
What it means exactly to be absolutely surrendered to the Lord.

Neither will you be able to manifest in supernatural power in any of the gifts of the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians 12:7-11.

1 Corinthians 2:14 KJV
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God:
for they are foolishness unto him:
neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

The natural mind is against the Spirit and comprehends Him not.
The natural mind is not able to absolutely surrender to God.

1 Corinthians 14:4 KJV
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself

Speaking in tongues is the utterance given by the Holy Spirit.
It is God teaching you and giving you the ability to deny your natural self and mind and to submit to Him in order to follow Him.

Luke 9:23 KJV
And he said to them all,
If any man will come after me,
let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

It is allowing God the Holy Spirit to have full control of your natural flesh to be willingly led by Him to walk in His Will.
It is given you that you may truly know what and how it is to walk in the Spirit.

God is spirit and thus is supernatural; there is nothing natural about Him.

1 Corinthians 14:18 KJV
I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:

The more you speak in tongues, the more you will be accustomed to submit your flesh to the Spirit of God and be able to walk in His Will and manifest the gifts of the Holy Spirit to proclaim the Kingdom of God, here on earth.

John 14:12 KJV
Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

A Real-life Deliverance Account

My sister and I had just done a deliverance on my mum yesterday (Tue, 28 Nov 2023).  It started when she kept vomitting and feeling very giddy and we laid hands upon her as usual according to the Word for divine healing.  However, it merely gave some relief to her, unlike other times as after a while, the extreme nauseousness and giddiness attacked her again. Then right around this point the demon took over her mind (soul) somewhat partially. The symptoms was that she looked dazed and kept repeating over and over again a number of questions like "Why am I sitting here" etc.  At this point when we talked to her, she did not remember anything that she did for the whole day (current time around 4pm+). It is very much like how a person with dementia would behaved and conversed.  To keep the long story short,  we took 2-3 hrs of casting out the demons in her and she is well now. Fast forward, It appeared that the demons came from H***i B***r (American Missionary) who came to our s

Absolute Surrender: Peter's Repentance

Image
Absolute Surrender By Andrew Murray Peter's Repentance You may be a very earnest, godly, devoted believer, in whom the power of the flesh is yet very strong. That is a very solemn truth.  Peter, before he denied Christ, had cast out devils and had healed the sick; and yet the flesh had power, and the flesh had room in him.  Oh, beloved, we have to realize that it is just because there is so much of that self-life in us that the power of God cannot work in us as mightily as God is willing that it should work.  Do you realize that the great God is longing to double His blessing, to give tenfold blessing through us?  But there is something hindering Him, and that something is a proof of nothing but the self-life.  We talk about the pride of Peter, and the impetuosity of Peter, and the self-confidence of Peter. It all rooted in that one word, self.  Christ had said, “Deny self,” and Peter had never understood, and never obeyed; and every failing came out of that. What a solemn thought,

A word of Knowledge: Stop depicting the Holy Spirit as a dove

A word of Knowledge Stop depicting the Holy Spirit as a dove Luke 3:22 KJV And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. Many people, if not everyone, have misunderstood this verse. They pictured the Holy Spirit coming in the shape of a dove coming down upon Jesus. No, this is not what God is telling us at all.  What purpose does it serve to tell us the Holy Spirit looks like a dove where He obviously does not look like that?  God is not the author of foolishness and  confusion.  We are made in God's image, therefore, God the Holy Spirit's bodily shape is one that resembles that of a man, just as God the Son and God the Father. Now, let us read the verse again slowly: "And the Holy Ghost descended in a BODILY SHAPE like a dove upon him" ...in what bodily shape? It is of course in the shape of a man! And the Holy Ghost DESCENDED in a bodily shape LIKE A
