The Dead Walking

I have heard something close to this before, but my question is this, how can you see the dead walking, dead people don’t walk, do they?  I don’t think you will see to many physically dead people walking, so in this case we are talking about spiritually dead people.  

What am I talking about?  I am talking about people that don’t have the Spirit of God living within them.  When a person is born-again, the Spirit of the living God comes in and that person’s body becomes the Temple of the Holy Spirit, then they are spiritually alive, praise the Lord, which is very good news.  People that are not born-again have a problem with understanding spiritual things because the things of God are spiritually discerned.

Without the conviction of the Holy Spirit in a unregenerate person, that person will not have any inclination towards spiritual things because they walk around in spiritual darkness.  Please read 1 Corinthians 2:14, “Now a natural man does not accept the things of the Ruach Elohim, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.”  The unregenerated person has worldly wisdom, but no real spiritual wisdom, even the cross is foolishness to them.  Please read 1 Corinthians 1:18, “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”
                 

The unbeliever’s mind is veiled so they cannot understand the Word of truth that is in God’s Word.  Please read 2 Corinthians 4:1-6, “For this reason, since we have this ministry, just as we received mercy, we do not lose heart. Instead, we renounced the hidden shameful ways—not walking in deception or distorting the word of God, but commending ourselves before God to everyone’s conscience by the open proclamation of the truth. And even if our Good News is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. In their case, the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, so they might not see the light of the Good News of the glory of Messiah, who is the image of God. For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Messiah Yeshua as Lord—and ourselves as your slaves for Yeshua’s sake. For God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ is the One who has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Messiah.”

Question: you may be asking yourself this, if an unbeliever’s heart and mind are veiled, then how is the veil lifted or taken away so that they can walk in spiritual light and escape the walking dead syndrome?  That can only be accomplished through the Lord.  Please read 2 Corinthians 3:13-17, “We are not like Moses, who used to put a veil over his face in order for Bnei-Yisrael not to look intently upon the end of what was passing away. But their minds were hardened. For up to this very day the same veil remains unlifted at the reading of the ancient covenant, since in Messiah it is passing away. But to this day, whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their heart. But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Ruach Adonai is, there is freedom.”

If you experience the conviction of the Holy Spirit, don’t harden your heart by rejecting Him, repent and make a choice to turn from your sins and turn towards the Lord, forsaking your sins and ask Him to come into your heart and life and be your Lord and Savior.  He will remove the veil and you will be set free and spiritually alive, walking in the light of God’s Word, praise the Lord!!

I hope this message has been helpful and a blessing.  May the good Lord bless you and yours with His perfect peace, love and joy and health and happiness!!  If you haven’t yet, give the Lord a shout of praise for He is worthy!!
