I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me (Galatians 2:20).
When a seed is dropped into the ground and covered, it lies dormant for a season. No one can see it; no one can tell anything is happening. But during this time the process of germination takes place. The casing is dying; the heart of grain is sprouting.
In the spiritual realm it is no different. The apostle Paul tells the Galatians: Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry (Colossians 3:5 KJV).
Mortify is a term related to mortuary, a place where we find nothing but dead and dysfunctional bodies.
What is Paul saying? Stop your Ademic nature from being the dominant force in your life. Allow the Holy Spirit to work in you, putting to death the flesh so that new life may sprout from you.
The storehouse of Heaven is full. You will never exhaust its inventory of glory. If we aren't walking in such a way to access it, however, these glorious realities will never occur in our lives.
Many Christians never access the windows of Heaven because they are still living in the outer court and have never broken through to the third dimension, the holy of holies. Many live in defeat and carnality because they have remained on the same level where they first boarded the ark of salvation.
