Are You Still on The Shoreline?
I believe that in this hour, there are many mysteries that The Spirit of Truth desires to reveal to us, but many are still too emotionally unstable, spiritually immature, and carnal minded, to be able to receive — choosing rather to remain on the shoreline of feel-good Messages, surface-level sermons, and Church as usual.
The Spirit of Truth is Calling You Deeper!
“I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.” John 16:12 KJV.
Yeshua spoke these words to His disciples, those who had walked with Him, seen miracles, and heard profound teachings.
Yet, they still weren’t ready to receive the deeper revelation
The Spirit of Truth does not reveal frivolous things — He reveals things that are often confrontational and unsettling, exposing hidden sin, spiritual deception, and personal idols and many become offended and reactive — and even hate the Messenger instead of discerning.
Another huge problem in the Body of Christ is Immaturity.
Immaturity in The Body of Christ is a major hindrance to receiving deeper Revelation.
Instead of seeking “the meat” of The Word, many are content with the milk of messages that tickle their ears but do not transform their hearts.
“And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.” 1 Corinthians 3:1-2 KJV.
Then another thing is the Carnal Mindset that is focused on self, fleshly desires, and worldly concerns.
A Carnal Mind cannot perceive Spiritual Truths.
Even when The Holy Spirit is trying to communicate, the Carnal Mind will dismiss it as foolishness or fantasy.
“Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.” Romans 8:7 KJV.
But The Spirit of Truth is calling for more!
- Ankle-Deep Water : Basic faith, surface-level teachings.
- Knee-Deep Water : Prayer and intercession, but still in control.
- Waist-Deep Water : Deeper spiritual engagement, but still holding back.
- Waters to Swim In : Full surrender, complete dependence on The Holy Spirit — the place where revelation, power, and divine mysteries flow!
The spirit of slumber is keeping many in a state of spiritual apathy, while The Spirit of Truth is trying to reveal the mysteries of The Kingdom.
The Spirit of Truth is calling!
Hebrews 6:1-2, John 16:13), Ezekiel 47:1-23.
Postscript
I will not be a shoreline believer!
I will not be content with ankle-deep Christianity while The Spirit of Truth is calling me to the depths.
I Declare that I am moving from milk to meat, from flesh to Spirit, and from surface-level encounters to deep, prophetic revelation.
I will not fear what the Spirit reveals.
I will embrace the deep waters, and I will be carried by the flow of the river of life.
In Yeshua’s Name, Amen!
Shalom
