Get ready for God to do a new thing in your life! We need spiritual understanding when God wants to expand our capacity. In the Bible, perception is often linked to wisdom, discernment, and spiritual understanding, which involves seeing beyond physical appearances to grasp what we cannot see in the spirit. Recognize that our human perception can be flawed and limited. However, our spiritual perception is empowered by the Holy Spirit, who enables believers to perceive and understand God's will and truths.

Get ready for God to do a new thing in your life! We need spiritual understanding when God wants to expand our capacity. Our spiritual perception comes from God indwelling Himself in our spirit. God speaks to us through the spirit man inside us. He searches us to see and know the intents of our hearts.  Our spiritual perception goes beyond what we can understand in our natural human understanding. An open heart is needed in order to receive God's revelation to you.   Allow the Holy Spirit to lead you and witness to your spirit to guide you in spiritual truths. Continuing in this stead allows us to be trained by the Lord and obey Him. That person is blessed.
