Don’t Be A “Nepios” – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional December 7th

(Become Mature And Speak God’s Language)

TO THE BIBLE: 1 Corinthians 2:13
“These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.”

LET’S TALK
In Galatians 4:1-2 NIV, the Bible says, “What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate.

The heir is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father.” An heir is someone who has an inheritance bequeathed to him and is a legal inheritor of an estate or position of high authority and wealth.

However, as long as that heir is a child, he’s not different from a servant. The word translated as “child” is “nēpios,” one who’s unable to talk right or communicate wisely.

Someone can be forty years in Christianity and still be a “nēpios”; he can’t form the right words in the realm of the spirit.

Yes, the Word says we’re heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ, but “nēpios” can’t live the life of an heir.

1 Corinthians 3:21 says, “…all things are yours,” but they’re suffering through life because they haven’t matured spiritually. They use the wrong terms because they’ve never learned God’s language.

The way to learn and speak God’s language is by studying and meditating on the Word. Our opening verse says we’re to speak words which the Holy Ghost teaches—words of wisdom from and by the Spirit.

So, get yourself trained in the Word of God and have the Word in your heart and on your lips always, irrespective of the circumstance.

1 Corinthians 2:7; 1 Corinthians 2:12-13; Hebrews 13:5-6

Speak:
I speak the wisdom of God in esoteric language. In Christ Jesus, I’ve been given dominion over circumstances, and I’m superior to Satan and the forces of darkness. The life God has given me in Christ is that of great glory and excellence, where I prosper in all things by His Word! I’m full of wisdom, glory, and strength. Hallelujah!
