I haven’t called you into competition with one another for My attention. Nor have I called you to strive to secure your position in My kingdom. It doesn’t please Me when you feel that you have to “one up” or when you try to silence other voices, that have the same gift. These things are from your human nature and lead to death. I am calling you to live from your spiritual nature, where you are united with Me. I want you to grow up into My likeness and love and consider one another as better than yourself.  Know that the things you strive to be, you already are, you need only to believe. Let your land, your house, your being be filled with the knowledge of Me and you will have peace and cease striving. ~God

 Prayer asking for deliverance from human nature: Lord Jesus, enable me to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Help me to set my mind on the things of the Spirit which are life and peace. Lead me, by Your Spirit, to put to death the deeds of my human nature, because I am Your child. I am not a child of human nature, but one born of the Spirit and I cry to You, Abba Father. In Jesus Name  (Romans 8)
