Superior Advantage in Life

"Experience the Word of God, in the power of the Spirit."

Undoubtedly Enoch, the Man of God, enjoyed a superior advantage: he was trained by God!

In the Kingdom, God uses spiritual parents to invest understanding and revelation into our future, to train us up in His ways. Training by a father affords us a spiritual advantage in every area of our lives.

Enoch learnt firsthand of the ways of God from his forefathers.  Adam, firstborn of creation, who walked in the Garden of Eden with Almighty God lived during Enoch’s lifetime! Even more, Jared, Mahalaleel, Cainan, Enos, and Seth also walked the earth in Enoch’s days. When Enoch laid down his understanding to align to the ways of his forefathers, he entered the powerful dimension of being trained by God.

(For more on this topic, enjoy Enoch: Trained by God,  from the Rain Now Conference in Montreal, Canada.)

Furthermore, to access this dimension, pride and independence must be refused. When a son recognizes their own limitation and submits to a father, God will powerfully use this sent person to reach us with Heaven’s help.  In the humility and grace of training, like Enoch, we receive an impartation that could never have been achieved through our own efforts, works or vanity.

Given that when sons are given mysteries, revelation and understanding by a father, the son’s potential becomes unlimited, consider how Enoch overcame death! What conquered his entire generation did not prevail over Enoch! His superior advantage of being trained by God through his forefathers afforded Enoch supernatural grace and faith, unparalleled in his day or ours today.

God always uses People to Deliver.

Comparatively, in both the Old Testament and New Testament,God uses people to bring deliverance, instruction, and miracles. Remember how Ananias was called to lay hands on Paul to heal his blindness? Or how, unexpectedly, Philip was sent by the Spirit, in the middle of a revival in Samaria, to illuminate the Word to the Eunuch in the desert? Even Peter the Apostle was sent by angelic command to Cornelius for the salvation to his household. The ultimate example, is our Lord Jesus, Son of God, Who was sent as a Man, to save us all. God always sends a person as our Deliverer!

Can we identify the Moses, the Peters, the Enochs in our midst?  Do we know our fathers appointed for our destiny? Do we understand the potential, the advantage of instructions given by a spiritual father to a son?

Jesus asked the Father that we may see His Glory, which He gave to His Bride (John 17).  When we respond in faith, as sons of honour and daughters of joy to each instruction given, like Enoch, may we begin to manifest the glory of God in every area of our lives!

May the sweetness of growing by training become our great delight as we access this superior advantage in every area of our life!

Shalom,
