Spiritual Connection

There is a spiritual connection between God and his creation and this is why it grieves him so much when that connection is lost.

 

When God created the angels that spiritual connection was there, that is why in Hebrew they are classed as Bane Elohiym (Son’s of God)

 

Lucifer was the most beautiful angel, he was the anointed cherub that covers, which means he was close to God and had a lot of responsibilities.

It is so important to keep the connect with God when God raises you up, or else the danger is, you will invite sin into your life in the form of pride, which is what Lucifer did:

 

Eze 28:14   “You were the anointed cherub;

            having been set in place

            on the holy mountain of God,

            you walked in the midst of fiery stones.

 

Eze 28:15   You were blameless in your behavior

            from the day you were created

            until wickedness was discovered in you.

 

Eze 28:16   Since your vast business dealings

            filled you with violent intent 

            from top to bottom,

            you sinned,

            so I cast you away as defiled

            from the mountain of God.

            I destroyed you,

            you guardian cherub,

            from the midst of the fiery stones.

 

Eze 28:17   Your heart grew arrogant because of your beauty;

            you annihilated your own wisdom

            because of your splendor.

            Then I threw you to the ground

            in the presence of kings,

            giving them a good look at you!

 

Eze 28:18   By all of your iniquity

            and unrighteous businesses

            you defiled your sanctuaries,

            so I’m going to bring out fire from within you

            and burn you to ashes on the earth

            before the whole watching world!

 

Eze 28:19   Everyone who knows you

            throughout all the nations

            will be appalled at your calamity

            and you will no longer exist forever.”’”

 

Breaking that spiritual connect with God means breaking that relationship and the only way a relationship with God can be re-established is through a renewed connection.

 

When a person accepts the Lord Jesus Christ into their heart, they effectively allow him to re-establish that connection.

 

There are many people in different religions and belief systems that are very sincere in what they are doing, however you can be sincere in something but sincerely wrong. Some of these people may even recognize Jesus as a real person, but not the God Man. In doing that, they take away the power of the cross and the connection cannot be re-established:

 

2Co 11:1        Paul warns against another Jesus other than the real one

            I wish you would tolerate a little of my foolishness. Yes, please tolerate me!

2Co 11:2  I am jealous of you with God’s own jealousy, because I promised you in marriage to one husband, to present you as a pure virgin to the Messiah.

2Co 11:3  However, I am afraid that just as the serpent deceived Eve by its tricks, so your minds may somehow be lured away from sincere and pure devotion to the Messiah.

 

2Co 11:4  For if someone comes along and preaches another Jesus than the one we preached, or should you receive a different spirit from the one you received or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you are all too willing to listen.

 

 

This is why a lot of these religions and belief systems are based on works and are very legalistic. It is people trying to re-establish the connection themselves based on what they do, but you can never have a true relationship with God this way because the most important component is missing.

 

The spiritual connection between God and his children is what interconnects the Body of Christ (The Church). This is why we should prayer for one another and allow the Holy Spirit to show us what we should be praying for.

 

God has also, through the spiritual connection with his children, given us the ability to discern what is of him or not:

 

Joh 10:25   Jesus answered them, “I have told you, but you do not believe it. The actions that I do in my Father’s name testify on my behalf,

Joh 10:26  but you do not believe because you do not belong to my sheep.  

Joh 10:27  My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me.

 

1Jn 4:1                      Test What People Say

             Dear friends, stop believing every spirit. Instead, test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

 

1Jn 4:2  ¶ This is how you can recognize God’s Spirit: Every spirit who acknowledges that Jesus the Messiah has become human—and remains so—is from God.

1Jn 4:3  But every spirit who does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist. You have heard that he is coming, and now he is already in the world.

1Jn 4:4  Little children, you belong to God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

1Jn 4:5  These people belong to the world. That is why they speak from the world’s perspective, and the world listens to them.

1Jn 4:6  We belong to God. The person who knows God listens to us. Whoever does not belong to God does not listen to us. This is how we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deceit.

 

So it is the spiritual connection with God that makes every Born Again Bible believing Christian special. We are the apple of his eye and there is nothing he would not do for us and he proved that when he endured the punishment of the cross.

 

Parallel Business Principles  

 

It is so important to remain level headed as you build your Reliv business because the potential is huge and a person can get a lot of recognition and financial benefits. If you are not level headed, the danger is you can start to believe your own hype and allow pride and haughtiness to creep in, which is what God hates.

 

There are many gifted people out there, but sometimes your gift can take you where your character can’t keep you.

 

No matter what you do in life make sure that spiritual connection remains between you and God. Always put him first and always give HIM the glory for your success.

 

Also from a practical point of view, Reliv has a success System which has been established so that everyone can be successful, so stay connected to it and don’t try and build your Reliv business by yourself. You may be sincere in what you think you should be doing, but you are sincerely WRONG!
