Operating at a Higher Level

SCRIPTURE:

Then both of them knew things they had never known before. They realized they were naked. So they sewed together fig leaves and made clothes for themselves. (Genesis 3:7 NIRV)

DEVOTIONAL:

Operating at a Higher Level

If we are to reclaim the earth, then we need to first understand that the supernatural is the foundation for all things, but the natural realm became predominant in human life when Adam and Eve fell. At that moment, the Bible says, their eyes were opened (see Genesis 3:7). They became self-conscious rather than God-conscious. They became sense-oriented instead of Spirit-led. They became limited to information in their minds rather than revelation in their hearts.

Before the Fall, Adam and Eve operated at a completely different level in every area. They were at a higher level of understanding, victory, joy, prosperity, peace, and power. They experienced a higher level of knowledge called revelation knowledge. Everything was super. Even they were super.

When Jesus came into the earth, He came as the last Adam and demonstrated where Adam and Eve operated before the Fall. He came preaching the Kingdom of God, the kingdom that we live in when we are born again; the kingdom that comes not only in word but with enough power to bring itself to pass; the kingdom that will produce more than enough for us.

SAY THIS PRAYER WITH ME:

Dear Lord, help me to be God-conscious, not self-conscious, and to operate according to revelation knowledge of Your Word. I decree that from now on, I will walk in the supernatural ways of the Kingdom of God. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
