But it will be increasingly difficult to do so as the things of the spirit continue to increase in intensity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">It\u2019s critical that we, as believers, learn to perceive and discern the things of the spirit accurately.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">This isn\u2019t something to be taken lightly. Nor is it something that is optional if we wish to be used by God, or to understand the things of God. Sharp discernment is a necessity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">So, how do we do this? How do we get understanding that gives us this discernment?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">We learn to listen to the Spirit of God and let Him lead us in everything that we do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Daily life can seem ho hum, benign and habitual to most of us, especially if we simply live in the natural.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">But God wants us to live <em>beyond<\/em> the natural, <em>above<\/em> what we see and feel. He desires for us to let Him develop our spirit in a way that allows it to commune with <em>His<\/em> spirit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><em>That<\/em> is the key to having a deeper understanding and a sharper ability to discern the things of the spirit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">And here\u2019s how we develop that muscle in each and every one of us; we spend time in His word. We spend time conversing with Him. We learn of Him, and we draw near to Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Over time, as we do this, with the goal of growing our relationship with Him, our spiritual understanding and our discernment will also improve.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Pastor Curt &amp; Pastor Ellie<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Seven Seas Ministries<br \/>\nP.O.
