Recently I visited the Ocean.
At this particular time, the winds were strong.
I saw the power of the wind.
It kept all boats at harbor.
It prevented us from enjoying the beach.
But I saw some kite surfers enjoying themselves in the wind.
They understood the wind and how to use it!
It was amazing to watch them do tricks in the air and glide over the waves propelled by the wind.
They set their sails high and took to the seas!
This morning I would like to encourage you to set your sails!
Open them up to the wind of the Spirit.
Set Your Sails
The word Spirit in the Bible many times is referred to as wind
Definition
Ruah (8120)
-breath, wind; by extension: spirit, mind, heart, as the immaterial part of a person that can respond to God, the seat of life; spirit being, especially the Spirit of God
Pneuma (4460)
-wind, breath, things which are commonly perceived as having no material substance; by extension: spirit, heart, mind, the immaterial part of the inner person that can respond to God
"To reach a port we must set sail -
Sail, not tie at anchor
Sail, not drift."
― Franklin D. Roosevelt
Sea of Thieves
I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it – but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.
– Oliver Wendel Holmes📷
Trust that the Wind (Spirit) will take you where you need to go!
Don’t worry the wind obeys God!
The Spirit has a Job description
In John chapter 16 we find this description
1.
He is our Helper/Comforter/Counselor
2. He will convict the world of Sin, Righteousness and Judgment
3.
He is the Spirit of truth and will lead us into all the truth
4.
He is our direct messenger from Jesus
5.
He carries God’s authority.
The spirit is not on a rouge mission.
Set yourself to catch the Wind of the Spirit.
Start doing business with the Spirit
Engage Him, unravel yourself, open up wide.
Prepare to be “moved” by Him
How do we do this?
Untie yourself from your old port! release the things that are keeping you from being moved!
Remove all un-necessary weight
Open your sails.
Open your heart mind and soul.
Don’t be afraid!
allow yourself to feel the wind blowing through you! you were made for this! you are the perfect canvas for this.
