The University of
Spiritual Babies
There is
a university that has a very large student therein. Many people are in this
university and they do not know. This group of people living a life that is
beyond the standard of God; this people have remained babies and have refused
to grow; due to this stagnancy has set in and many people have even begun to
stink.
The
agenda of this mystery is to identify and deal with spiritual Stagnancy which is
a result of being in this school of spiritual babies. The school has tied the
hands of heaven to bless so many; because this school is a cage and bondage in
out self. May you begin to grow and the mighty hand of God, move out from this
school of Spiritual Babies in name of Jesus.
The University of Spiritual Babies
"Now
I say, That the heir,
as long as he is a
child, different
nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; But is under
tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. Even so we, when we were children, were in
bondage under the elements of the world:" {Gal 4:1-3}
The
scriptures emphasize a fact that, even though a child has all the inheritance, has
all the cars and other possessions of his father; he cannot access them; Why? He is a Child!
Same it is in the Spiritual Realm;
As
far as you remain as a child in the spirit, you are a slave and do not have
access to your benefits
The ultimate command to
all Christians è is to grow
Refusal
to grow is a call to slavery
The
reason people go for several deliverance without lasting result is because this
people have refuse to grow.
A Child can be CONTROLLED, MANIPULATED, confused, intimidated.
ü No matter how great
your destiny is;
ü No matter how powerful
your family is,
ü No matter how promising
your future looks,;
ü No matter the great
visions and prophesies concerning your destiny;
ü No master the authority
you have in Chris;
ü No matter how long you
have been coming to church;
YOU WILL REMAIN A SERVANT; AS LONG AS
YOU ARE A CHILD

"I
am crucified with
Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and
the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God,
who loved me, and gave himself for me."{Gal 2:20}
The old
Paul had been crucified;
Ø The Paul that used to be harassed, tossed about, intimidated has
been crucified.
Facts About
Spiritual Growth
v The reason why you still experience the harassment of the enemy
is because you have refused to grow; you remain at the same level with the
enemy; where they have access to you.
v Instead of growing, many people have put their whole life in the
hands of prophet; mountain prophets. This people have cause havoc and worsened
a lot of people’s troubles.
v It is obvious that Christian maturity is far from those who
claims to the Christian; Many People are growing physically but not in the
spirit.
v Many people devote less attention and devotion to study their
Bible compared to how much their devote to worldly professional study.
