The message explores the idea that upon believing in the Gospel, Christians receive a “spiritual 6th sense” — an inner knowing of God’s will and truth through the Holy Spirit, without relying solely on traditional physical senses or human reasoning. This concept is rooted in the belief that God’s Spirit indwells every believer, allowing them direct access to divine guidance and truth.
Key points highlighted include:
1. Desiring God’s Will: Emphasizes that understanding God’s will is not an arduous search but an accessible reality for those who genuinely seek it. Jesus’ prayers in Gethsemane serve as a model for seeking, confirming, and obeying God’s will.
2. Spiritual 6th Sense Defined: This “6th sense” is an intuitive, spiritual insight directly from the Holy Spirit. Similar to how a person might learn to use sight after being blind, believers must learn to trust this spiritual sense over natural reasoning.
3. Christ’s Anointing Spirit: The message emphasizes that the Spirit (1) lives within believers, (2) teaches them truth, and (3) enables them to know divine truths beyond human teaching.
4. The Role of Inner Discernment: Citing Watchman Nee, the message warns of deceptive teachings and stresses the importance of following the “still small voice” of the Spirit, which offers clarity amidst external influences.
This 6th sense is seen as transformative, making believers one with Christ and enabling them to navigate life with divine wisdom. The takeaway is an encouragement to believers to rely on this spiritual sense for a deeper, more personal relationship with God.
