Good morning,

The word for today is - Awake !

Lets start with Ephesians 5:14,Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. A person who is asleep have no knowledge of God,and is incapable of performing anything worthy. This means in a state of complete spiritual torpor. Torpor means numbness; inactivity; loss of motion, or of the power of motion. Torpor may amount to a total loss of sensation, or complete insensibility. It may however be applied to the state of a living body which has not lost all power of feeling and motion. So, don't let this Spirit over take you, have no cares of this life, keep your mind on the things of the kingdom of God, it's about the Spiritual things in our life. It is the awakening of the mind and the heart; it is also the awakening of our physical self. You see Spiritual awakening is waking up to the truth of God's word. Spiritual awakening is usually a slow process because people are divided into two groups ordinarily, intellectual and emotional people, some are both. The word awakening literally means to be aware or conscious. When you are awake, you are self aware, and when you are aware of yourself you are aware of everything around you. If you are asking yourself "does awakening mean being aware"? Yes! You see, when you are awake you will realize and acknowledge that the Lord is God and it is he who made us, and we are his. Read Psalm 100:3,Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. So, awake and know this is the work of the Lord, in other words the hand of God the Creator. Read Psalm 119:73, Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments. The word from God tells us to get understanding, the idea that we have been formed or moulded by God is awsome, then He fitted us; shaped us, and formed us, not one of us is alike. Lets look at David's prayer for understanding. He is saying,I need to learn other things, I need to have my mind enlarged.When your mind is enlarged, then the Holy Spirit is at work. Read Deuteronomy 4:35, Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the Lord he is God; there is none else beside him. Lets look at Psalm 46:10,Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. Get this,those who are awake and seeking him with all their heart shall find Him (God).Read Luke 21:36,Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Pray this verse Lord let me stay awake at all times and give me the strength to overcome the things that are not like you. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
