Spiritual Renewal Bible Adventure
Welcome Back!
Psalms 51:10-12
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right
spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy
Holy Spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me
with thy free Spirit.
My friend, it's so nice to have you back again, I love our time
together. I'm excited for you about this Renew a right spirit within
me step because it's about one of the most exciting things that you
can imagine ... You will learn how to renew your spirit!
You've probably heard people refer to this wonderful mystery
as being "Reborn" or becoming a "Born Again Christian" and if you're
not very familiar with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, then it may be a
little confusing as to just exactly what that means.
Click the link below to learn more about Jesus:
You may have seen "Revivals" where people gather and are "Saved" and
it all may seem a little ... Surreal, and sometimes a little too
sensational even. Why don't we look into the Truth about it
then?
One thing you may be wondering, is whether being water baptized is the same as being reborn or born again, and is being saved even different from those things, or what? Here is a Renew a Right spirit within me tidbit of Truth ... There is a difference between Water Baptism and being baptized by the Holy Spirit. Click the link below to learn more about Water Baptism:
Well, you might think of it this way ... The moment you decide to give your life to Jesus Christ is when you are saved.
John 3:16-17
16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not
perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the
world; but that the world through Him might be saved.
How about a Spiritual Renewal Bible tidbit of Truth ... When you surrender your life to God and I am placed within you and commit yourself to becoming sensitive to My leadership ... That is when you're renewed in Spirit, or reborn in Spirit, or born again. You might think of being Spiritually baptized by Me as sort of an adoption, just like when a child is adopted, they become part of a new family and take on the name of that family. When you're baptized by the Holy Spirit (not water) you're being brought into the family of Christ or the body of Christ and identified as, or named a Christian ...
Water was used as a symbol of washing away sins, so you could think of Baptism as a spiritual cleansing. The ceremony of Baptism is just a symbolic celebration of your entering into the family of Christianity, which is why they refer to Baptism as Christening or being Christened, but the ceremony is not the Baptism. The cleansing or renewal of your spirit is the Spiritual renewal Baptism.
Spiritual Renewal Bible Rebirth
How to Renew Your Spirit Bible Secrets
Let's see how Jesus Himself explained being born again, shall we?
John 3:1-8
1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a
ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto Him,
Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can
do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the Kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto Him, How can a man be born when he
is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be
born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I
say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of
the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which
is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born
again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the
sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it
goeth: so is every one that is born of the
Spirit.
I give birth ... Or life ... To your spirit.
So, can you expect to have an out of body experience, or an unexplainable euphoric feeling, or fall down faint on the ground or suddenly sport a halo when you're born again? Does being reborn happen all at once at a distinct moment, and are you suddenly filled with spiritual wisdom next to that of king Solomon, or are you slowly changed? These may sound like silly questions, but things out of the ordinary have happened to people when they opened the door of their heart to Me. Let's take a Spiritual Renewal Bible field trip, shall we?
Pentecost
Pentecost (which means the 50th day) was when I descended upon the Apostles after Jesus' resurrection. Just ten days earlier, Jesus ascended into Heaven, but He told them ahead of time to be expecting My arrival:
Acts 1:4-5
4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them
that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise
of the Father, which, saith He, ye have heard of me.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be
baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days
hence.
Here is an excellent Spiritual Renewal Bible story ... So, here they were, about 120 of Jesus' disciples gathered together because it was a feast celebration, but they had the intent, also, of spreading the Gospel that Jesus taught them. Do you think they weren't a little keyed up? If you think Christians get a little enthusiastic at rallies and such in today's era, can you imagine, having actually seen Jesus in the flesh and having heard His teachings with their own ears, how excited these disciples were to get out and get the world rockin' about Salvation? Sheeez boy!
Okay, let me give you a Renew a right spirit within me Bible visual. Imagine ... Suddenly, I (Holy Spirit) enter the scene! Suddenly the wind kicks up ... Tremendously and it fills the house where they are at which is Inside!!! Wild huh?
Acts 2:3-4
3 And there appeared unto them cloven
tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy
Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Sounds a little more ... Spiritual than what most are used to in today's day and age, but it was real! John the Baptist prophesied about that very Spiritual Renewal Bible event!
Luke 3:16
John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water;
but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not
worthy to unloose: He shall baptize you with the Holy
Ghost and with fire:
Now, if you saw this happen at a revival today, say one night on television when you could not sleep at 3 a.m., you may be inclined to think it was a bunch of malarkey or that it was all staged, which some very well may be, but in many cases it is real and most still doubt.
Heyyyyyyyy, Guess what? That's what happened back then too!
Renew Your Spirit With This Spiritual Renewal Bible Recipe
See, at the time I first introduced myself to the Apostles and others, there were foreigners staying at Jerusalem for the feast and they all gathered together when they heard rumor of what was going on, and when they heard the disciples (who were all from Galilee) speaking in a universal language which people from every nation could understand, they became very interested, but others mocked, saying that they were just a bunch of drunks hooting and hollering ... And they may have indeed appeared that way because they were so enlivened, experiencing My power for the first time.
Here is a Spiritual Renewal Bible trivia question ... I ask you, is it any different than My presence at a gathering of Christians today and extraordinary things happening? Why do people believe that it happened at Pentecost, but it's hard to believe that I am still Holy Ghosting people now? The sad reason is that there are some people who fake it for money or attention, and that makes even the real thing seem in-credible. You will just have to decide when it's real and when it is not. Miracles can happen ... And they do.
John 14:12
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.
On the Other Hand
I appeared with fire at Pentecost ... Yet you'll read that thousands upon thousands received Me in other ways, some simply accepting Me in their hearts, some after hearing a man of God preach the Gospel, some after the laying on of hands, and in Paul's case, just for having reached the time of his calling.
Here is some great Renew a right spirit within me Bible advice: The point is to Relax.
If you don't speak in tongues or find a flame resting on you when you invite Me to infuse your life with the kind of spiritual fire that lights you up to glorify God, that doesn't mean you did something wrong, or that it's not real, or that you're not really saved yet.
It only means that it's different for different people. Here is another Spiritual Renewal Bible event ... Take a look at what happened to Paul when he received Me. First, he was blinded for three days, then a man named Ananias, who was a disciple of the Lord was sent to him:
Acts 9:17-18
17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house;
and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even
Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent
me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been
scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was
baptized.
Renew a Right Spirit Within Me Step by Step
Now, if anyone tells you that you must have some kind of spectacular experience in order to become a spiritual servant of any value, just tell them about Paul ... Probably one of the most spiritual men of God in history, was blinded for the occasion and there is no mention of these wild things happening when he received Me, except that He could then see!
An excellent Spiritual Renewal Bible point ... So, as you can see,
becoming renewed in spirit is a vastly different experience for
different individuals. Perhaps it may take you a period of time to
develop a renewed spirit. Everyone is unique. Don't compare. When a
child is born, you're elated at the miracle of the child, the
delivery will soon be forgotten, but the health and happiness and
growth of the child is what's important. Some children learn to walk
before they're a year old, and others, not until they're much older.
Renew a right spirit within me Bible Transformation
Here is another, How to renew your spirit trivia question ... What
can you expect when you're renewed in spirit? You can expect the
desire for an increased awareness of the presence of God in your
life. You're not living for yourself anymore, you understand.
You Get It
You don't belong to you ... You surrendered that. Your hopes are
different, your dreams are different, your intents are different,
your motives are different, your mind is different, your opinions are
different ... You are a new spirit, You're not the old
you ... Remember:
John 3:6-8
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which
is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the
sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it
goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
Wave bye-bye to the old you! You'll begin to depend less on what
you've learned from the world and from mankind, and more on Me to
help you discern spiritual things.
Ezekiel 36:26-27
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a
New Spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the
stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put My Spirit within
you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my
judgments, and do them.
Renew Your Spirit With the Lord
During your spiritual transformation, you'll realize that you cannot
go on living the way you used to, though as Paul explained there will
be LOTS of lures.
Your lifestyle will slowly begin to reflect that you are reborn in
spirit, and no longer a worldly creature.
It is a one day at a time change
You will fall, but if you repent and grab my hand ... I will lift you
up.
But slowly you will experience a change in your choices.
You will stop looking into the rear view mirror and become a new man
(or woman).
Philippians 3:13
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing
I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth
unto those things which are before,
Colossians 3:10
And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge
after the image of Him that created him.
Ephesians 4:23-24
23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God
is created in righteousness and true holiness.
You learned about Me working in you and also working through
you. Another way that I work in you is transforming you so that
people recognize by your fruits that you represent Jesus Christ.
Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is
love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
Renew a Right Spirit Within Me and Change Within
You have a new cause ... A new purpose ... A new attitude. And I know
you'll want to jump in with both feet and save the world tomorrow
morning bright and early, but don't forget the world isn't as
receptive as you are. Don't lose your enthusiasm, and also, don't
become impatient with them. I'll teach you what you need to know.
It Takes One to Know One
Spiritual Renewal Bible truth ... You've probably heard the saying
"Birds of a feather, flock together." Don't expect people who are not
spiritual or don't have the desire to become spiritual to understand
you. They will treat you like you are from a different world, and you
are ... Well, actually, a different realm. I think that soon you'll
find that My friends will become your friends. Edify one another and
help each other to stay on the right path in life.
1 Corinthians 2:9-16
9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard,
neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath
prepared for them that love Him.
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by
His Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth
all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the
spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no
man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but
the Spirit which is of God; that we might know
the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which
man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing
spiritual things with spiritual.
14 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.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he
himself is judged of no man.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that He may
instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.
Spiritual Renewal Bible Warning ... There are so many things that you
are going to want to know about, and the more spiritual you become,
the more you will understand. If you become frustrated because your
spiritual growth is not happening as fast as you'd like it to, again,
please be patient and trust Me.
Psalms 27:14
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine
heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
Psalms 37:34
Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt thee to
inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
Renew a Right Spirit Within Me and Hold On
I can see from perspectives that you cannot see from. God's
perspective is eternity ... From eternity, the things that seem
important today, don't amount to much. Don't let go of My hand. Talk
to Me. Ask Me things ... Keep on asking ... Be curious about your
faith ... Investigate it ... Learn ... Share with others. I will help
you. I have a specific purpose for you, and My timing is perfect, so
when you think things are moving too slow ... Wait ... Because God is
moving everything into its proper place. Don't be impatient ...
Travel steadily along His path.
Can't wait to talk with you again, dear friend!
