The Law of Spiritual Growth

🌱 The Law of Spiritual Growing

For many years, I would like to share publicly this — my own experience of spiritual growth — but only now is the right time.

I was born from above by Yahweh and baptized with the Holy Spirit by speaking in tongues in 1994.

As a newborn baby in Yahweh, I sought a godly man used mightily by God — to learn from him, follow him, and be like him.
And I found my idol — a Pentecostal TV evangelist, Benny Hinn.

So I worked for TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network) in Santa Ana, CA, at the Pentecostal TV station in the Safety Department.
I attended Benny Hinn’s “Miracle Crusades”, revival meetings, listened to his teachings, and tried to be like him.

But Yahweh saw my foolishness, and He called this:

“Baby Spiritual Idolatry.”

👶 The Nature of Spiritual Babies

This is normal for all newborn babies — to find a godly leader and make him an idol.

If you are a godly and honest man, you shall acknowledge and confess this also, as I am doing now.

For a “baby” is still a “baby” and does not yet know the spiritual law of growth. Therefore, he tries to copy other godly men and follow them.

The natural instinct of all creatures’ babies — like ducklings and goslings — is to follow the first adult leader.

And all of us, as newborn spiritual babies, have done this “spiritual idolatry.”
I was guilty of that also.

🌿 From Baby to Maturity

But as I grew in spiritual knowledge — by walking with Yahweh through fasting and prayer, and most of all by obeying His voice —
then, and only then, the Spirit of Yahweh began to open my eyes to my own baby spiritual idolatry and caused me to hate my idols and forsake them.

When I truly repented and forsook my baby spiritual idolatry, Yahweh saw the fruits of my repentance.
Only then did Yahweh reveal to me my own heavenly calling.

✨ Each Has a Heavenly Calling

Each of us — His wheat — has his or her own heavenly calling which we must fulfill diligently, or else be cast away as an unprofitable servant.

If we wish to hear these good heavenly words of our Master on the Day of Judgment, then let us serve faithfully:

Matthew 25:21
His master said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things; I will make thee ruler over many things. Enter thou into the joy of thy master.

But let it not be this:

Matthew 25:30
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

🕊️ The Conclusion

“If you want to find your own heavenly calling — to fulfill the will of God for you — then do not seek nor follow idol men,
but seek the face of Yahweh by fasting, prayer, and obedience to His voice.
For Yahweh is the Caller, and He reveals heavenly secrets to those who diligently seek His face.”
Amen.

🍶 The Fruits of a Spiritual Baby

A spiritual baby is:

Carnal and an idol worshiper
Led by the Bible (the books)
A follower of the teachings of men — the disciples and apostles — blindly
Seeking the fellowship of churches and congregations
Having a form of godliness but no power to live a holy life
Fearful of death
Abominable, proud, boastful, unrighteous, unholy, and unfruitful
Not knowing Yahweh

🔥 The Fruits of a Spiritual Man of Yahweh

A spiritual man of Yahweh is:

Spiritual, walking and led by the Holy Spirit
Not an idol worshiper
Not led by the Bible (the books), but by the Spirit of Yahweh
Not a follower of the teachings of men, but one who tests them by the Spirit
Not seeking the fellowship of churches or congregations, but walking alone with Yahweh
Speaking with power, living with power — a holy life
An overcomer, fearless of death
Humble before Yahweh
Not proud, not boastful
Righteous, holy, and fruitful
Knowing Yahweh — and known by Yahweh

💭 A Question to the Soul

Now answer honestly to yourself:

Which one are you?
Do you live and are led by the Bible (the books), as the carnal scribes, Pharisees, and Sadducees?
Or do you live and are led by the Holy Spirit — as יהושע / Yahshua the Messiah (Jesus)?

“Only the ones whose names are written in the Book of Life will listen and repent!”
