You might think it was easy for Jesus’ disciples to believe in Him—they saw Him with their own eyes. But surprisingly, seeing Him made it harder for them to perceive who He was. Philip even asked Jesus to show them the Father, not realizing that seeing Jesus was seeing the Father. The disciples were relying on their senses more than their spirits—and we can make the same mistake today.
If you want to experience real transformation in your life, you can’t approach God through feelings or the flesh—you must approach Him in spirit and in truth.
Andrew addresses this pitfall in his teaching Are You Satisfied with Jesus? Scripture says that we can’t know God through the natural man (1 Cor. 2:14). That’s why so many believers feel unfulfilled or shaken by the world around them—they’re tuned in to their flesh rather than their spirit. Yet our spirit is perfect and complete the moment we become a new creation in Christ. To truly know Him, we must rise above our feelings and pursue Him in the spirit.
Experience the fullness of God’s presence in your life. Order Are You Satisfied with Jesus? today and step into a closer, more satisfying relationship with Him.
