In my experience, whenever I have the urge to clean out my physical house it always precedes a spiritual cleansing or promotion -- although I'm not sure those two terms differ in essence. True to form, I de-cluttered the house a few days ago and this past weekend I got a promotion via a breakthrough in the spirit realm.
Our Christian community has been discussing moving to the next level, migration, and positioning of the Body by the hand of the Holy Spirit over the past few months so it's not a new subject in our household (by household I mean families and individuals within our immediate spiritual community). We talk about it, pray for it, work for it, and desire it.
I won't get into specifics because it almost doesn't matter, but Bryan and I had a situation that could have easily moved from discussion-land to argument-land. Somehow by the grace of God it didn't. Not only did we avoid that pitfall, but we both got a new view and understanding of marital relationship, stewardship, and spiritual covering. It was and is a breath of fresh air. It's one of those small things that give me/us a chance to prove our faithfulness so that He will give us bigger things to follow Him in.
Pray that I can follow Him in the small things. It's already a struggle. My soul is at war with my spirit. Again.
