I Corinthians 15:46 NKJV

However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual.

I Corinthians 15:46 NKJV

Paul is describing that every man born takes on the earthly dimension first, that is, the fallen image and a life that is broken.

For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. No one is born righteous and holy.

Therefore, all mankind need to be born again as an incorruptible Seed that is of God. We are born as a natural being in this world but are called to be transformed to live as a spiritual being.

This means we need to leave behind the ways of the world and take on the ways of God. We are no longer citizens of this natural world. We are citizens of the supernatural kingdom of God.

We are now to think in line with the resources of God, abundance of God, wisdom of God and power of God. Therefore, we cannot say that we don't have what it takes.

We have received everything pertaining to life and godliness. We got it all in Christ Jesus. All we need to do is to believe who we have become in Christ.

We are called to walk in the spirit because that is who we have become in Christ. We are to set our eyes above because that is where our resources come from.

Yes, we are all born in a natural family but we have become part of a heavenly family in Christ our Lord.

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus and live life in the power of God's Spirit.

Blessings,

Ps Ambrose
